How it works

Each month from July, you'll have the opportunity to submit photos of your best bake along with a few details about what inspired it. There will be three rounds, with categories including bread, cookies, pies and more.

Based on creativity, skill and presentation, our expert judging panel will shortlist the most impressive entries to take part in the semi-finals.

Stage 2 - Semi Finals

This is your chance to share more about your bake, from top tips to what makes it so special. You'll submit a video showcasing your creation and answering a series of questions.

Our expert judging panel will review all videos. Selected bakers will then be invited to take part in the finals, where they will compete live on The Home Bake Stage, to win the title of Home Baker Of The Year.  

Stage 3 - The Live Finals

Finalists will be asked to create an iconic British bake and bring it along to The Cake & Bake Show. You'll go head-to-head in front of our judges and live audience for the chance to become the UK's Home Baker of the Year.
