Calling all bakers!
This year’s challenge is to create a classic, traditional, or iconic sponge cake. The flavour and decoration are completely up to you — but remember, it must be a sponge!
Our expert judges will be tasting each entry as usual, but this year we’re adding a new twist — you, the public, get a say too! Everyone attending the fete will be invited to sample the entries and cast a vote using a token for their favourite cake.
Will your bake rise to the top? Who will be crowned Theale’s Star Baker 2025?
