Cake
The baking challenge is back for another year. The new bakers make a swiss roll, a classic cherry cake and classic British cakes in perfect miniature.
The Bake Off is back for another year, welcoming the tent's youngest-ever baker and the oldest. All 12 bakers will be challenged on their baking skills from every angle by judges Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood, all the while helped - or hindered - by Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins. But their first hurdle is cake.
As they enter the tent for the very first time, their first Signature Challenge is to make a swiss roll. But with such a seemingly simple challenge comes a risk - who will have the tightest roll? Whose roll will split? Should the bakers go for the classic or push the boat out to impress?
Recovering from their first challenge, they face their first ever Technical Challenge. It's cake week... it's a Mary recipe... it's a classic cherry cake. But will the bakers be able to suspend the cherries and ice their cakes to the exacting standard of Ms Berry?
As the next day dawns so does the Showstopper. The bakers must make classic British cakes... in perfect miniature... all 36 of them...
30 challenges, 12 brand-new bakers, two judges and two presenters, but there can only be one winner.
On your marks, get set... bake!
