About the Show


The Great South African Bake Off is a South African culinary reality competition series based on the international format which features a nationwide search to find and crown South Africa's best amateur baker.

The tent is up, the ovens preheated and 12 of the country's best amateur bakers are ready to showcase their baking skills through a series of challenging tasks.

This creative competition show is sure to provide inspiration and delicious fun as the amateurs go all out to impress the judges with their originality and skill, ultimately hoping to bake their way to the final.

No matter what the theme, all the bakers must deliver a showstopping, mouth-watering creation. But after eight weeks of whisking, crimping and piping, only one can emerge victorious.

There'll be tears, there'll be tension, and there may even be a soggy bottom or two.

On your marks... get set... bake!

The Great South African Bake Off is produced by Rapid Blue for BBC Worldwide. The series is based on the British format by Love Productions.
