Every autumn, thousands of us tune into The Great British Bake-Off, the feel-good TV show where soggy bottoms, the Paul Hollywood handshake, and mouth-watering bakes fill our screens. But the tent and the coveted Star Baker award isn’t the end of the adventure for many of our favourite contestants: a number of them have transformed their signature styles into recipes for your kitchen. You’ll find five of these cookbooks below, packed with sweet and savoury foods full of flavour. It’s time to put your own twist on them!

As the beloved winner of season 6, Nadiya captured not only the nation’s heart, but the world’s. Her recipes, full of creativity and inventive flavour pairings (we all remember the iconic wedding cake finale) helped her become a household name. Nadiya Bakes captures her effortless charm and is packed with twists on comforting classics, including mango and coconut cake, as well as potato rosti quiche. It’s the perfect cookbook for those who want to shake up their bakes!

Edd Kimber was the inaugural winner of the Great British Bake Off, and has authored many cookbooks since. His latest focuses entirely on everyone’s favourite ingredient: chocolate. In Chocolate Baking, every recipe is a celebration of this special ingredient. With classic flavours with a twist such as Pistachio Tiramisu and Edd’s personal favourites such as Miso and White Chocolate Cookies, there really is something for everybody.

Ruby Tandoh was one of the Great British Bake Off’s most memorable finalists, and captured our hearts with her bakes born from intuition rather than elaborate decorations. In Cook As Your Are, Ruby speaks to the real home cooks, those juggling babies or long commutes, or those who have limited time and resources. Her recipes, such as one-tin smashed potatoes with lemony sardines and pesto, are realistic, achievable, and affordable. The message is clear: you don’t have to be an aspiring chef for your cooking to be a delight. You should just cook as you are.

As the winner of season 12 who charmed us with his engineering precision and Italian heritage, Giuseppe brings authentic Mediterranean flavours to your table. His first cookbook shares his skill, knowledge, and love of baking through a number of both sweet and savoury recipes. Whilst guiding you through making breads, panna cotta, tiramisu, and pizza, Giuseppe lets you bring a taste of the Italian bakery to your table.
