The best bakers in Bucks will battle it out once again next month, as the Big Bucks Bake Off returns for an eighth-year next month.

Hosted at the Eden Shopping Centre, amateur bakers from across Bucks are invited to register for the competition – which will then be shortlisted to just 20 people.

Those who are shortlisted will have the opportunity to showcase their creations to celebrity judges Dean Edwards from This Morning and ITV’s Lorraine.

The top three entrants will be awarded with both gift cards for the shopping centre and other retail prizes.

The 2018 winner, Aisha Tariq, said after winning the prize: “I am so overwhelmed to be crowned the Big Bucks Bake Off champion 2018 as there were so many other amazing entries that also deserved to win. I still can’t quite believe it!

“I wanted to create a weather appropriate cake, so I opted for my Summer Berries cake. I'm so pleased it went down well.

“I would like to say a massive thank you to Eden Shopping Centre for giving me the chance to showcase my love for baking and for rewarding me with fantastic prizes, and of course to the judges for choosing me as the Big Bucks Bake Off champion.”

Closing date for entries is Sunday 30th June. To find out more information and to enter visit www.edenshopping.co.uk/bakeoff.
