The Great British Bake Off (GBBO) is a TV phenomenon, watched by millions worldwide and responsible for a sharp rise in baking by people of all generations in recent years.

12 amateur bakers are selected from hundreds of candidates to participate in a televised baking competition. The best baker is crowned the Great British Bake Off Winner.

Nadiya Hussain was the 2015 GBBO winner and arguably its most successful contestant. She currently co-presents The Big Family Cooking Showdown and has entered our houses through other TV programmes, including the CBBC’s Junior Bake Off. Nadiya has also written many cookbooks. Including this competition’s giveaway.

The programme is televised over 10 weeks. Each week, the contestants face three challenges: the Signature, Technical and Showstopper bakes.

The Signature Bake is where bakers can showing off their tried-and-tested recipes.
