🍈We had a zesty start to this morning with Sam’s key lime tartlets. Each creation was topped with meringue, lime curd macarons and fresh lime zest (of course). This technical bake had us in awe, with comments such as ‘Super, 10/10’, ‘Phenomenal’, ‘Perfect’, ‘Sublime’ and ‘The bake of a true winner’. One comment even got us thinking… do we have Prue’s protégé here at Blackbridge? We still have one baker left to go. Stay tuned to see what our baker reveals next week, and who will be crowned as this year’s Great Blackbridge Bake Off winner. #GreatBritishBakeOff #GBBO #GBBBO

It’s still Bake Off for a couple more weeks here at Bakebridge. And this week, we have a mystery baker. The baker (who shall not be named) made a two-layer Biscoff (Speculoos) sponge cake, filled with Biscoff buttercream icing and topped with a kaleidoscope-style salted caramel swirl. This caramel and cinnamon delight was judged to be a ‘delicious, buttery, biscuity bake’ and one of ‘the largest cakes Blackbridge ever did see.’ 🎂😍 Thank you to this week’s baker. We only have two bakers left until we announce the winner of this year’s Great Blackbridge Bake Off. Stay tuned… #GBBBO #GreatBritishBakeOff #GBBO

This week’s baker, Sonum, treated us to chilled chocolate fondant with a salted caramel centre. Hazelnut crumble was sprinkled on each individual pudding and finished off with crunchy hazelnut praline. It’s safe to say we were impressed. This ‘rich and decadent triumph’ was at restaurant level… and it took us the whole day to recover from the incredible sugar hit. Thank you, Sonum!👩‍🍳🍮 #GreatBritishBakeOff #GBBO #GBBBO #youmeandBB

Our baker, Versica, won our hearts over today with a two-layer vanilla sponge cake filled with buttercream icing and raspberry jam. The sparkily fondant exterior was elegantly hand-painted with a golden BB logo. Everyone at Bakebridge was in awe of this ‘piece of art’. Thank you Versica, you are quite the artiste. 👩‍🎨🎨🍰 #GBBBO #GreatBritishBakeOff #GBBO #youmeandBB

This week at Bakebridge, we’re going bananas for Matt’s honey, banana and chocolate chip muffins. Topped with a swirl of chocolate and vanilla buttercream icing, as well as a sprinkle of homemade honeycomb, we couldn’t wait to try it. Thank you for the delightful treats Matt. 👨‍🍳🍯 #GBBBO #GreatBritishBakeOff #GBBO #youmeandBB

This week on our bake off, we have Jo – the Blackbridge Queen of Pastry. She spoiled us with two types of tart, lemon meringue and blood orange & amaretto. Jo always delivers a technical bake, and today was no exception with the pastry, lemon curd and meringue all made from scratch. These moreish, zesty treats had ‘a little bit of heaven in every bite.’ Thanks Jo! 👩‍🍳🥧 #GBBBO #GreatBritishBakeOff #youmeandBB

Following on from spice week on #GBBO, Hannah impressed us with some beef and chorizo empanadas – our very first savoury bake! Filled with spiced tender beef, her empanadas had a chilli kick which tantalised our taste buds. A taste so inviting, it had the team pondering on whether they’d be the first person to crack – and dive in for seconds. A savoury sensation! Well done Hannah. 👩‍🍳🥟 #GBBBO #greatbritishbakeoff
