About My Challenge

Welcome to My Ultimate Bake-Off Challenge!

I have been baking for as long as I can remember, but it's time for me to get serious about it! I want to push myself to the limits and broaden my knowledge of baking techniques. 

My goal is to attempt to bake through every challenge from the Great British Bake-Off in order.

I will follow instructions and time limits as closely as possible, and have my partner edit or hide instructions on technical recipes to mimic the challenges on the show. The judging, however, will be up to you, readers! 

As I complete each challenge, I will include links here.

Am I crazy? I guess we'll find out.

On my mark, get set, bake!
