This popular baking competition features a dozen contestants vying for the prestigious title of Best Amateur Baker. Each week brings new challenges, with one contestant being honored as the star baker and another being eliminated based on their performance.
As the bakers innovate with various recipes aligned with weekly themes, their goal is to impress judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith with their culinary creations. Ultimately, three bakers will reach the finale, but only one can claim victory.
