The first season of The Great Australian Bake Off aired on the Nine Network and saw ten home bakers take part in a bake-off to test every aspect of their baking skills as they battled to be crowned The Great Australian Bake Off's best amateur baker. Each week, saw keen bakers put through three challenges in a particular discipline. And what better way to kick off the series than with a Bake Off cake off! The bakers have two hours to bake one family sized signature cake. The bakers have to cook in an unfamiliar kitchen to a tight deadline under the watchful eyes of the two judges.
