With the Great British Bake Off back on screens from Tuesday 13 September, a fresh baking craze is set to sweep the nation, as this year's band of aspiring amateurs inspire millions of us to try our hand at whipping up some sweet treats of our own.
This year, Cath Kidston has released a range of GBBO-inspired bakeware. The colourful collection includes everything from pie dishes and tea towels to measuring spoons and oven gloves, all decorated with cute designs incorporating some of the best-loved elements of the show, including its famous 'Star Baker' prize - well, we can dream!
Read on for the highlights of the range, guaranteed to galvanise your next baking adventure!
Cath Kidston x GBBO bakeware range - our favourites from the collection
GBBO Icing Placement Large Pie Dish
Boasting a 23cm diameter, this pie dish is the perfect size for feeding a family - plus, it's made of dishwasher-safe stoneware for easy cleaning after your feast, too! We love the vivid and colourful pattern on the inside, and the striped rainbow effect around the outer edge.
GBBO Showstopper Mixing Bowl
With its pastel yellow and pink colouring and cosy gingham flowers, this mixing bowl would be fitting addition to a cottagecore kitchen. Generously sized for whipping up plenty of batter at a time, it's microwave and dishwasher safe.
GBBO Showstopper Jug
If you love the mixing bowl above, why not treat yourself to this jug in a matching pink and yellow colourway, with the same gingham floral motif? It can hold up to 1.4L of liquid - enough to wash down plenty of cake - and would work as a cheery rustic vase to hold some hand-picked blooms, too!
Showstopper Set Of 3 Cake Tins
Serve up your culinary creations on the go with this set of three metal cake tins, all hand-painted with Cath Kidston's trademark intricate and colourful designs. The three tins measure 25.5 x 13cm (large), 21.5 x 12cm (medium), and 18 x 10cm (small) and are stackable for easy storage.
GBBO Showstopper Set Of 4 Measuring Spoons
As every keen amateur knows, baking is a science, so it's important to make sure you're precise when it comes to measuring out your ingredients. This adorable set of four measuring spoons are sized to portion out tablespoons, half-tablespoons, teaspoons and half-teaspoons.
The bowls of each spoon are painted bright, distinct colours to quickly tell them apart, but the handles share a sweet matching strawberry motif. We love the detail of the hanger so you can keep this set within easy reach!
GBBO Showstopper Double Oven Glove
Protect your mitts when you're taking your latest creation out of the oven with these cute cotton oven gloves, covered with bright floral illustrations.
And if you love the design, you'll be pleased to know there's an apron to match!
GBBO Conversational Placement Tea Towel
A great gift for GBBO fans, this cheerful tea towel is emblazoned with uplifting slogans - including a nod to the show's famous 'Showstoppers'. Plus, it's made of 100% organic cotton, so it's a sustainable choice, too!
