“The Scottish Baker of the Year Awards is one of the most prestigious awards a baker can win, with accolades on offer for the best pies, scones, loaves, savoury items, morning rolls, individual cakes and biscuits as well as the ultimate prize, to be crowned Scottish Baker of the Year” says Alasdair Smith of Scottish Bakers who organise the competition, now in its 8th year.

“So we are delighted to once again be giving Scottish bakers the chance to shine and showcase their skills” he continued.

And now that the product judging has been completed, the competition moves to a business footing with only the Regional & National category winners eligible to move to this stage which will determine the winner of the Bakery Café of the Year, Craft Baker of the Year, Retail Craft Baker of the Year and the Wholesale Baker of the Year Awards.. And one of these winners will go on to be crowned Scottish Baker of the Year 2019/20.

The winner will be announced at a glittering Gala dinner at the Crowne Plaza in Glasgow on Saturday 8th June 2019.
