7 Paper Cakes For Crafty GBBO Fans

It’s finally here, the day we’ve all been waiting for. It’s the day that The Great British Bake Off season six begins! It seems that a lot of crafters like to pick up a whisk just as much as a glue gun – baking is yet another way of expressing your creativity and making something by hand. However, if you’re a papercrafter at heart (and you’re prone to a soggy bottom), take a look at our top 7 paper cakes. They’re great for filling with treats and gifts and, best of all, they’re zero calories!
