“How To Bake” By Paul Hollywood 

No list would be complete without a Paul Hollywood gift. He is the judge that has been with the franchise since the beginning, and bakers and fans love to hear what he has to say. This book is targeted at anyone that wants to learn the why behind baking. Like he does on the show, Hollywood walks you through exactly what is happening with your bakes. Your recipient is bound to be a better baker after reading this! Buy it on Amazon.

“Cooking With Mary Berry”

This cookbook is comparable to one written by Ina Garten. The photos are beautiful, the instructions are clear, and the food is simple but delicious. A huge plus is that the ingredients are all very accessible and easily found in your local grocery store. This is great for someone new to cooking that loves the Great British Bake Off. Buy it on Amazon.

Prue Leith Mug

Is your recipient a huge fan of the newest judge, Prue Leith? Then this mug with her signature phrase, “you only have to be not the worst,” from PonyChopsDesign is made for them! This motivational mug comes in two different sizes and is sure to put a smile on the face of any GBBO fan every morning. Check out the entire Etsy shop; it has many great gifts, including some for Bravo fans.

“Chetna’s Healthy Indian Vegetarian” By Chetna Makan

Fans of the show will remember series five semi-finalist Chetna Makan. Her unique flavor combinations and unflappable demeanor constantly wowed the judges. Since the show, she has gone on to create a successful YouTube channel and write four books. Her latest offering showcases her bold flavors in an accessible way. Buy it on Amazon.

“Baking With Kim-Joy” by Kim-Joy Hewlett

Another fan favorite was the series nine finalist, Kim-Joy Hewlett. The judges and fans alike were wowed by her whimsical style that often included odes to her cats and other creatures. That whimsy abounds on the pages of, “Baking With Kim-Joy.” The book is filled with stunning images of cakes and other treats that are beautifully adorned. If your recipient loves decorating, this is for them. Buy it on Amazon.

“Aran” By Flora Shedden

Contestant Flora Shedden was only 19 years old when she entered the tent. She went on to be the youngest finalist in GBBO history. Since the show, she has written two books and opened a bakery in her native Scotland. Her latest book, “Aran” is part cookbook and part chronicle of her experience running the business.  The book has a warm and cozy feel, and the photos make you want to bake everything in it and then plan a trip to visit. Purchase it on Amazon.

If you are looking for the ultimate gift for a Great British Bake Off fanatic, this is it! Bake With A Legend offers cooking classes with former contestants, including Howard Middleton, Jane Beedle, Kimberley Wilson, and many others. Don’t worry if you aren’t in the UK; you can do it all via Zoom. The prices are affordable, too.

Star Baker Apron

Is your friend or loved one deserving of the “Star Baker” award? Then it is time to show them by gifting this apron by HumorStyle. The beautiful color will hide any stains, and it has two pockets for your Thermapen and any utensils they need to hold close. You can find it in HumorStyle’s shop on Etsy.

Timer 

Timing is so important in baking, and the contestants heavily relied on these timers to keep track of every element of their masterpieces. This five-pack will help keep even the busiest of bakers on task, and the magnetic backing means you can pop it on the outside of the oven in a pinch. Buy them on Amazon.

“Nadiya’s Family Favourties” By Nadiya Hussain

Nadiya Hussain has gone on to earn great success since her appearance on series six. She has published ten books and starred in several cooking shows on Netflix and BBC. “Nadiya’s Family Favourites” is accessible and makes even complicated dishes attainable for the average cook. Buy it on Amazon.

Thermapen

Baking can be tricky, especially when working with sugars and chocolates. If an element of a dish gets a few degrees off, the whole thing is ruined potentially. The simple way to stop that is to use an accurate thermometer. Contestants use these colorful thermometers all the time. They aren’t just for style; they are the best at providing quick, accurate temperatures. You can purchase one directly through Thermapen.com.

Madeleine Pan

Bakers create such wonderful delicacies. Most at-home chefs have a variety of pans but often do not have a madeleine pan. The bakers made these crumbly cookies several times on the show. The judges always looked for the signature bump that should be on the back if baked properly. Buy it on Amazon.

Cake Stand

If your star baker creates wonderful items, they should be shown off! There is no better way than by placing it on a beautiful cake stand. This one includes a dome top that allows it to double as storage and the simple design will complement any kitchen decor.  Purchase it from Amazon.

Rolling Pin

When rolling out pastry dough, it must be the right thickness. This rolling pin has adjustable bands to help ensure that the dough is even and precise. These are just like the ones used on the Great British Bake Off. Buy it now on Amazon.

“The Story of the Great British Bake Off” By Anita Singh

This is a great look at how contestants are picked and what it is really like behind the show’s scenes. The author walks the reader through the first seven seasons of the show. It is a must for any Great British Bake Off fan! Buy it on Amazon.
