It's The Final Showstopper Challenge!
|
|
|
|
|
Hello, Bakers (or should we say Barkers),
|
Your Gingerbread last week had us feeling all warm and fuzzy during the run-up for Christmas. So many creative biscuits, which no doubt your pooch snapped right out of your hand.
|
It's the FINAL week of the Great Doggy Bake Off and this week it's all about the Showstopper Challenge!
|
We have TWO recipes this week for you to choose from for your Showstopper Challenge. You can either go sweet with a Doggy Carrot Cake, or savoury with a Pupperonie Pizza.
|
Whatever recipe you choose, be sure to add plenty of creativity and flair into it for brownie points.
|
How To Take Part?
To take part, have-a-go at the weekly recipe, take a photo (before your dog nabs it) and share your marvellous creation (or epic fail) for the world to see.
|
To be in with a chance of being Star Barker, upload a photo of your bake to our Bake Off Facebook group, or tag us via Instagram @dogfuriendly @doggydesserts #greatdoggybakeoff.
