Once Upon A… Bake Off

A smidgen of celebrity chef, a dash of drag, a generous helping of cake, and a fairytale sprinkle – the Bobby Goldsmith Foundation (BGF) combines the perfect ingredients for a fun afternoon at The Imperial Hotel.

Now in its 27th year, the 2014 BGF Bake Off promises to be a deliciously irreverent affair. Entries have now closed and aspiring bakers around the city have hit the kitchen to whip up fairytale inspired cakes for Sunday’s Once Upon A… Bake Off.

BGF CEO David Riddell says, “With the funds raised, we help people living with HIV. We can only distribute what we raise, so come down and join in. It’s a bonkers afternoon that only Sydney knows how to do.”

Forget Granny’s standard brownies and cupcakes – this is no ordinary bake sale. Think Rupaul’s Drag Race meets Masterchef.

Hosted by Patrick Abboud (The Feed) and Aunty Mavis, the event will include entertainment from local drag personalities Cindy Pastel and Miss 3D.

A star-studded judging panel including celebrated pâtissier Adriano Zumbo, Christina Batista (Masterchef), and Martin Boetz (Cooks Co-Op) will decide who wins the seven award categories.

Winning cakes will be auctioned off to the highest bidders and all other entries will be available for purchase by silent auction. (CC)
