Bake Off: The Professionals is a British television baking competition featuring teams of professional pastry chefs pitted against one another over two challenges. The series is a spin-off from The Great British Bake Off, and was originally titled Bake Off: Crème de la Crème on the BBC. Its first episode was screened on BBC Two on 29 March 2016. The third series screened on Channel 4 and was renamed Bake Off: The Professionals to join The Great British Bake Off after the BBC failed to renew the series. The eight-episode first series of the programme was presented by Tom Kerridge, with Benoit Blin, Cherish Finden and Claire Clark serving as judges. The second series was presented by Angus Deayton, and Claire Clark did not return as a judge. On Channel 4, the series was originally presented by comedian Tom Allen and former GBBO competitor Liam Charles. In 2022 Tom Allen was replaced by Stacey Solomon, and from 2023 it has been presented by Charles and comedian Ellie Taylor. The first series was won by the Squires Kitchen Cookery School team led by Mark Tilling, followed by a team of military chefs led by Liam Grime, a team from London Hilton Park Lane with Emmanuel Bonneau, Thibault Marchand and Erica Sangiorgi from Kimpton Fitzroy London Hotel, and Laurian Veaudor and Thibault Courtoisier from Cocorico Patisserie. Andrew Minto and Michael Coggan from Gin and Bake in Cardiff won in 2021.
