Kicking off from January 10th, Junior Bake Off season 7 will see the contestants split into two groups of eight for the first rounds of the competition.
Once the winner is announced, the Junior Bake Off champion is awarded a glass cake stand trophy.
Just the same as the regular GBBO competition, there’s no cash prize for the winner, but there is a lot of exposure that comes with the Channel 4 show which could lead to further deals and work in the baking field.
