Paul’s lavish loaf…
In 2008, judge Paul Hollywood’s bread was the talk of London town. The Roquefort and almond sourdough loaf he created exclusively for Harrods carried a £15 price tag and was reported to be Britain’s most expensive bread. Paul declared the bread “the best I've ever made”, and dubbed it “the Rolls-Royce of loafs”.
Mary's zesty signature cake…
With nearly 60 years professional culinary experience and over 70 cookery books to her name, judge Mary Berry is considered to be the doyenne of baking. Her personal favourite cake to make is a ginger treacle tray bake, but claims that her lemon drizzle cake is by far her most popular published recipe with her readership.
