Calling all those other blind bakers.

Great chance to show just what we can do. I’ve been talking with the Great British Bake Off team which is specifically looking for cooks like us.  Feel free to use any of my recipes and WOW them.  Both the production company and Channel 4 want to include everyone.

From them:

The Great British Bake Off – Casting Call

Are you, or someone you know, a star baker in the making?

The Great British Bake Off is currently looking for a fresh batch of bakers to take part in the next series, and we want to hear from you.

We want the famous white tent to be an inclusive space that truly represents the diversity of the nation, and that includes talented bakers who are blind or visually impaired.

We recognise that everyone’s needs are different, and we are committed to making reasonable adjustments throughout the audition and filming process. Whether that’s alternative formats, guided support, orientation assistance, clear labelling, or another adjustment — just let us know what works best for you. We want every applicant to feel confident, comfortable, and fully supported.

How to Apply:
Visit applyforbakeoff.co.uk – the application site is compatible with screen readers and assistive technology.

Deadline:
Applications close on Monday 15th December 2025 at 1pm.

If you love baking and fancy a go in the tent (or know someone who should), we would love to hear from you.
