There are many home
bakers entering this competition but ten bakers are selected to start as contestants for
three baking challenges each week for 6 weeks. The judges are Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry. Their reward for their baking will be their crowning as
Britain’s best amateur baker. At
the end of each set of challenges, one baker will not be coming back for the
remaining challenges. The
contestants are baking in a large white tent equipped with everything thing
they will need for their challenges. Stephen Noonan presents commentary on the
action.
The first challenge
in each bake off section are signature bakes, then technical bakes and finally
a showstopper bakes. There are
specific time limits for each challenge.
The final product is judged on appearance, taste and complexity. Various locations were used
across the UK with different themes.
Episodes on puddings took place in Bakewell and bread baking near Sandwich.
At the end of the five bake off challenge sections there is a final signature and showstopper bake off to
determine the winner. There can be a LOT of tension in the
tent!! Some of the finished
creations can be judged as not fulfilling the requirements for taste, shape or look. Many of the bakes have been practiced
at home by the bakers before beginning the competition.
