Bao Buns

Episode 2 of 12

The candidates manufacture bao buns to punt to the public and corporate clients, but kitchen explosions and a maths meltdown lead to a grilling in the boardroom.

For week two, the candidates are summoned to Hutong at The Shard in Central London. Lord Sugar reveals that they will be manufacturing savoury bao buns to punt to the public and a bespoke sweet bun to sell to a corporate client, with the team who secures the biggest overall profit winning.

One team bites off more than they can chew with a Jurassic-themed bun, leading to explosions in the kitchen, while the other team are left in short supply after a maths meltdown. In the boardroom, one member of the losing team is sent packing.
