Britain's Best Cake has six categories for entry: Classic Cake, Free-From Cake, Fruit Cake, Individual Cake, Occasion Cake and Traybake. The entry process couldn’t be easier; all we ask for is the name, ingredients, description of your cake and two accompanying photos. It’s quick and simple!
Our panel of expert judges will now select a winning and highly commended cake for each category, and give the top accolade of Britain’s Best Cake to the sweet treat that they deem to be the very finest in Britain at our inaugural event hosted during the UK Food & Drink Shows at the NEC Birmingham on Monday 29 April 2024!
