The Great Celebrity Bake Off line up has been confirmed for the new series this Spring.
This year, a fresh batch of famous faces will enter the iconic Bake Off tent, battling it out in the signature, technical, and showstopper challenges. As always, only one celebrity will be named Star Baker at the end of each episode – but with baking disasters almost guaranteed, expect plenty of laughs along the way.
There’s a shake-up in the Bake Off kitchen as a new judge steps in to help decide the fate of the celebrity bakers. Caroline Waldegrave OBE, a former co-owner and managing director of Leiths School of Food & Wine, will join Paul Hollywood to sample the stars’ creations.
Caroline is a long-time friend of Prue Leith, who is taking a step back from this special charity edition.
