Kiss The Spatula Nov 24, 2021

Show notes

As always the founder of Bake With A Legend Josh Landy was joined by Bake Off legends Howard Middleton, Jane Beedle and Dan Beasley Harling to reflect on carrot cakes, Belgian buns and a mad hatters tea party for a final that was too close to call until the end.

Handshake Central Nov 17, 2021

Show notes

WHAT. AN. EPISODE. If you're after brilliant baking, handshakes everywhere you look and drama until the final moments - then you simply couldn't have asked for more than what was served up in the tent for a memorable semi-final.

As always the founder of Bake With A Legend Josh Landy was joined by Bake Off legends Howard Middleton, Jane Beedle and Dan Beasley Harling to reflect on how our remaining bakers fared and ultimately in an episode worthy of a final, it was almost unfair that anyone had to leave.

We’re sad that Bake Off is coming to an end for another year, but to celebrate we’re going to be holding a free webinar with Howard Middleton on Sunday 28th November at 3.30pm UK, where Howard is going to teach you how to make his delicious Victoria Sponge in a short hour class that’ll give you a flavour of what to expect in a full online class with us.

Free From leaves us with Four From Nov 10, 2021

Show notes

The arrival of 'free from' week brought with it more cries of 'all about survival' as our final five bakers entered the tent, with identical dairy free ice cream sandwiches, vegan sausage rolls and a gluten free celebration cake all on the agenda for those that wished to advance to a semi-final.

Can we call it a Twix Nov 03, 2021

Show notes

Welcome back fans of the Bake Down, it's a pleasure to have you with us once again, as we react to Caramel Week, which included a sharing sized caramel tart and most excitingly of all - a chance to see how to make your very own Twix bar - except they couldn't mention it was a Twix bar, we just had to listen to Matt refer to how it may usually belong in a golden wrapper!

As always the founder of Bake With A Legend Josh Landy is joined by Bake Off legends Howard Middleton, Jane Beedle and Dan Beasley Harling to reflect on how our half dozen remaining bakers fared as we near the business end of the series.

When you meet resistance, it’s full Oct 27, 2021

Show notes

Roll up, roll up, get your innuendo bingo cards ready after perhaps the most innuendo laden episode in Great British Bake Off History as our seven bakers were tasked with making some perfect pastry to keep themselves in contention of the ultimate prize.

Founder of Bake With A Legend Josh Landy is joined by Bake Off legends Howard Middleton, Jane Beedle and Dan Beasley Harling to reflect on some lovely chouxnuts, baklava and terrine pies, as seven became six in the hallowed tent.

Danke Deutschland Oct 20, 2021

Show notes

Once again the founder of Bake With A Legend Josh Landy is joined by Bake Off legends Howard Middleton, Jane Beedle and Dan Beasley Harling to reflect on the first ever German week, where it should have been home advantage for Jurgen!

So excited were we about German week, that we've decided to run a FREE webinar this Sunday, 24th October, at 3.30pm UK where Dan is going to be teaching Eisenbahner - railway biscuits! These traditional German biscuits are made to resemble railway sleepers, which is where they get their unusual name. They are surprisingly simple to make, and can be easily adapted to your choice of flavours! You need to register here if you want to join us and tell everyone else who you think will love it!

This week, the bakers in the tent were asked to make some German biscuits to kick off this week with the signature, whilst even pronouncing the technical challenge - Prinzregententorte - was going to be difficult enough never mind making a two tiered yeast leavened cake for a showstopper! What a week it was and Jane felt, the most enjoyable of the series so far and you'll hear how positive she was!

Remember here at Bake With A Legend we are still having great fun hosting regular online baking classes every weekend. We currently have 25 virtual classes on sale now for you to enjoy and learn from the comfort of your own home including lots of festive classes. They are great fun and if you use the code PODCAST at checkout you'll get 10% off, whilst gift vouchers and bundle packs are also available. Please check out our online baking classes on our website.

I can't see Paris from here Oct 13, 2021

Show notes

Once again the founder of Bake With A Legend Josh Landy is joined by Bake Off legends Howard Middleton, Jane Beedle and Dan Beasley Harling to reflect on dessert week, where we ended up with as many disasters as we did successes.

Could our bakers make a promising Pavlova and what about their stupendous sticky toffee puddings... surely none of them would forget to put their flour... oh. Never mind. For the showstopper, they were asked to make brilliant jaconde desserts with varying success.
