What if you went back to your childhood with delicious pastries? It’s tempting, and that’s what the new episode of “Meilleur Pâtissier” offers, broadcast this Thursday, November 28, 2024 on M6. For this eighth week of competition presented by Laëtitia Milot, Mercotte and Cyril Lignac have concocted a busy program for the candidates still in the running, who had to delve into their childhood memories to take on challenges that are still just as fun. Except that in passing, a particular sequence made fans of the “Best Pastry Chef” jump…

Tears that annoy fans of the “Best Pastry Chef”
When we talk about childhood, obviously, we think of the toys, trunks and posters that filled our toddler rooms. Precisely, for the first test of this new episode, Tsiory, Benjamin, José, Laurène, Timothée and Christelle had to take on a major challenge: reproducing their childhood bedroom in cake! Inventiveness was then required to hope to win the event. Thus, some took inspiration to the limit, like José who even reproduced a chamber pot, or a chocolate toy box like Tsiory. Finally, Christelle and José were able to convince Mercotte and Cyril Lignac with their cake rooms!
But the object of the anger of the fans of the show did not relate to this famous ordeal. Just after the deliberations of Mercotte and Cyril Lignac, the apprentice pastry chefs discovered a surprise concocted by production. In fact, everyone received letters from their loved ones! So obviously, the emotion was there, some even shed tears. Like Laurène who read the words of her parents and her big brother, her voice trembling, as well as José, upset upon discovering his daughter’s letter. Near them, even Laëtitia Milot had difficulty containing her emotion.
Problem: on X, this emotion sequence did not seem to hit its target. For early fans, “Le Meilleur Pâtissier” is not a show designed to make people cry. For others, this sequence looks a little too much like the cult sequence from “Koh-Lanta”, when the adventurers read the letters of their loved ones. Except that here, it’s not about adventurers lost on an island on the other side of the world, but about pastry chefs who work in French studios. In short, no one understood the usefulness of this emotional moment…
