The Great British Bake Off



As two keen bakers we have been following the Great British Bake Off religiously! Hosted by Sue Perkins and Mel Giedrovc and judged by Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood the twelve amateur bakers have made everything from cupcakes to quiche.

One of the refreshing things about this series is the modest and down to earth attitude of the contestants and their laid back approach to competition.  Having said that, we bicker every week about our favourite bakers – Will wants Holly to win and LouLou is backing Jo!  We both felt for Janet last week though, she was so dignified about leaving the show and was just pleased to have had the opportunity to take part.

If, like us, you have been inspired to try a recipe at home, let us know how you get on?  We are giving macaroons a try for the first (and maybe last!) time soon, so keep an eye on our blog to see how they turn out!
