Next week's Bake Off theme revealed: Biscuit Week is back for week 2!
After tonight’s sweet and sponge-filled opener celebrating Cake Week, fans won’t have to wait long for another classic instalment of The Great British Bake Off. Next week (9 September), the nation’s favourite tent will play host to one of the show’s most iconic challenges — Biscuit Week.

The new series continues in full swing, with hosts Noel Fielding and Alison Hammond guiding a brand-new batch of bakers through a marathon of 30 challenges across the season. At the judging end, Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith are once again keeping standards sky-high as they set the tasks designed to test everything from finesse to flavour.
In Biscuit Week, the remaining bakers must rise to three distinctive challenges. First comes the Signature, where precision is key with the tricky “slice and bake” method. The Technical sets the tent abuzz with Paul’s chosen challenge: the humble yet much-loved chocolate Hobnob. And for the Showstopper, bakers will be asked to create biscuit time capsules, transforming their favourite mementos into edible keepsakes.
As always, one baker will walk away with the coveted Star Baker apron, while for another, their time in the tent will sadly “crumb” to an end.
With inventive bakes, unexpected disasters, and plenty of laughs, the competition is only just heating up — and Biscuit Week promises to be a crunchy crowd-pleaser.
