The winner of Channel 4's The Great British Bake Off has finally been crowned.
'Bake Off' is the ultimate baking battle where passionate amateur baking fans compete to be crowned the UK's Best Amateur Baker.
And over the past few weeks, bakers from up and down the country have been trying to impress judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leit.
Tonight, the finalists went all out with signature scones, afternoon teas "fit for a final" and tiered celebration cakes.
Although 'everything went wrong' for one contestant (our sympathies, Dylan), a winner was eventually crowned.

How to increase your chances for GBBO:
A love and passion for baking is a must
It is good if you have a broader baking repertoire than just baking cakes. In the series, there is a bread, biscuit and pastry week among others.
It is important to note though that it is ok if people haven’t made literally everything. There is always time to practice throughout the process and lots of bakers who have appeared in the tent will say how much they learnt throughout the process in a supportive environment.
Applications open for series 16 of the Great British Bake Off
A spokesperson for the show said: "Applications for the next series of THE GREAT BRITISH BAKE OFF are NOW OPEN!
"We’re looking for the next batch of talented home bakers to enter the tent in 2025!
"Are you a star baker in the making?
"Are you fabulous with flavours and wonderful with a whisk?
"If you have ever wanted to lay your oven gloves down in the famous white tent, then we want to hear from YOU!
"If you or someone you know is up for being part of history in the baking, apply now".
The closing date for applications is 1pm on Monday, December 9, 2024.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
