Firstly I must apologise for taking so long to come back here. I have been so busy lately that although I've had stuff to write about I just haven't found the time, but I'm back now so I hope you'll forgive me!
In early July we finally finished the Great British Bake Off at work (read about part one of The Bake Off here). After 10 weeks of eating cake twice a week we were all still very enthusiastic to see what people would bring in and I have to admit even as the competition approached the final stages people were still putting a lot of effort in to their submissions. We did not have one recipe that was too similar to something we had already tried and the presentation of some of the submissions were amazing. The much coveted price for the tastiest entry went to the raspberry and white chocolate muffins which we had early on in the competition but the other winners are shown in the pictures below.
To get your mouths watering here are some photos of the final submissions we had. All in all I think the competition was a great and perhaps we need to think of doing something similar in the run up to Christmas!
