Applications for the next series of The Great British Bake Off are now open, and the producers are seeking applications from the great bakers of Croydon for their 2027 series.
What they call “the search for the next generation of bakers” is looking for the kind of people who make their own bread when the supermarket is two minutes away.
Or those who turn up to birthdays with a cake that’s taller than the birthday boy.
Or who shudder at the thought of a shop-bought shortcrust.
“If that sounds like you, we’d like a word,” says Love Productions.
“We’re searching for the next batch of brilliant home bakers, ready to swap their kitchen counter for the famous white tent. Maybe, just maybe, the next Star Baker could be you.”
The Great British Bake Off has been going since 2010 (the same year Inside Croydon began publishing), and the latest series, Series 17, continues on Channel 4 tomorrow night with the last five contestants remaining.
The show’s presenters are Alison Hammond and Noel Fielding, with judges Paul Hollywood and Nigella Lawson.
To be on the 18th series, you need to get your application in before December 11.
