Dobbies launches search for star baker
As the Great British Bake Off TV show on BBC 1 comes to an end, Dobbies is giving its customers a chance to become their ‘Star Baker!’

Keen cooks are being asked to put their GBBO knowledge to the test and submit their speciality Christmas recipe to Dobbies, to win the chance for their signature festive bake to go on sale in the garden centre’s restaurant... and receive tasty afternoon tea for two*.

"The winning Christmas bake will be on sale from Friday 2nd – Sunday 4th December, with all proceeds donated to our National Charity Partner, Teenage Cancer Trust," said the company.

"All you need to do is send us a short description of your bake along with the list of ingredients. The restaurant manager, with the support of our in-store baker, at your local Dobbies store will then choose who to crown their festive star baker. If you have a picture, don’t forget to include that too!

"Being Dobbies, bonus points will go to those who give their bake a horticultural twist – think holly leaf decorations, sage infused crumbles, or even thyme and lemon frosting – the more creative, the better.

*Birtley, Westerwood, Kinross, Grovelands and Dalgety Bay: due to kitchen limitations at these store, an alternative prize will be offered.

To enter, send your Christmas recipe to mychristmasbake@dobbies.com.

Entries for the competition close on November 14 and winners will be announced the following week. Full details on the competition can be found at www.dobbies.com/christmas/mychristmasbake/.
