WE COMPETED IN BAKE OFF THE PROFESSIONALS!!⭐️
OH MY GOODNESS! We couldn't be prouder of Sally & Dane and the fantastic work they did to represent Team C&D, it was a huge task that took a lot of patience, determination, skill and perseverance, and I'd say it absolutely paid off - look how cute they look in their chef whites (and pinks 😉)!
The competition was intense with lots of new skills to be learnt in a very short amount of time - we're talkin' chocolate work, tempering, sugar work, pastry - just to name a few, all of which aren't baking skills we use in the bakery here at Crumbs & Doilies, so it was absolutely a challenge, but they excelled and pushed themselves to the absolute edge! There were definitely tears and frustration along the way, but in the end it was all worth it, because they made it to the QUARTER FINALS BABY!!
So here is a little BTS look at some of what they got up to - if you've watched the program you might recognise some of these bakes! And I will say, the rest of the C&D gang were very happy to try everything they made 🙂↕️ LOL!
If you haven't watched Sally & Dane on Bake Off: The Professionals yet, you can catch up now over on Channel 4 OD (apologies if you're outside of the UK, you may struggle to find the show - the older seasons are currently on US Netflix and Apple TV but we're unsure when they will be up to date!)
Thank you so much for the constant support and well wishes while the competition was happening but also just in general - it means more to us than you'll ever know! xx
