Seven Bake Off-Inspired Crafts That Will Tickle Your Fondant Fancy

We don’t know about you, but we’re thrilled to bits about the return of the Great British Bake Off – it’s a guilty pleasure that has us bowled over. So when Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig return to our screens with the words “on your marks, get set, bake!” you know where we’ll be. We can’t wait to see what their cakes are made of! So whilst you’re waiting excitedly for the Noel-isms and cheesy one-liners, why not give our Bake Off-inspired crafting a go? It’s a piece of cake!
