HOST YOUR OWN BAKE OFF CHALLENGE AT HOME
To celebrate the end of Series Three, we created this nifty party pack complete with invites and bunting.
Download now, and you can recreate a slice of the baking action at home.
How to throw
What you will need:
To host a Great British Bake Off Party, you will need at least
2 bakers and 1 judge.
Preparation
Before you throw your Great British Bake Off Party, you will need to print off the following items:
1. Invites2. Party Bunting3. Door Sign4. Recipe Cards5. Voting Cards6. Name cards7. Certificate
Set a date for the party and send out the invites to all the bakers (your friends or family).
Once you know who is coming to the party, fill out the name labels with the bakers’ names.
Make a list of all the ingredients you will need and then make sure you have enough for all your bakers to follow the recipe.
On the day the bakers could get into pairs or small groups to follow the recipe together to make 2, 3, 4 or 6 cupcakes each – depending on how big your Bake Off party is. Or, if there are just two bakers in the Bake Off, you could make 12 cupcakes each – how many cupcakes each baker makes is up to you.

On the Day
1. Decorate the Bake Off party room with the bunting and the door sign.
2. Invite the bakers in and give out the recipe cards.
3. Give the bakers 1 hour to make and bake their cupcakes. While the cakes are cooling, take a break and have some savoury party food and drinks, then make the icing. When the cakes are cold, give the bakers 30 minutes to ice and decorate their cakes before they are judged.
4. Bakers must follow the recipe carefully – but they can be as creative as they like with their icing and decorations.
5. Ask the bakers to place their finished cakes on the judging table. This should be a blind test, so put the bakers name cards behind each batch of cupcakes making sure the name is facing away from the judges.
6. Cakes must then be judged based on 1) taste and 2) decoration – marks out of 10.
7. Once the judges have filled out the voting cards, the name cards can be turned around to reveal the Bake Off Champion.
8. Award the certificate to the Bake Off Champion. Get everyone to try the cupcakes and then box
up the rest for everyone to take home.
