Whisks at the ready: Spark’s Bake Off returns – Supporting Lambeth & Croydon Foodbank

With autumn rolling in, the nights are getting colder, but our ovens are warming up. Yes, that’s right: Spark’s Bake Off is back. Our friendly competition – inspired by the Great British Bake Off – returns better than ever for 2025. Last year saw everything from Japanese-inspired treats and café-worthy morning buns to the surreal sight of some plastic cows guarding a pile of beef sausage rolls. Get the full low-down here.

Over the next few months, the team will be donning their aprons and competing over a number of rounds, from bread week to cake week, for a spot in the grand final. Everybody in the office will be sampling the dishes, giving a score and, importantly, bringing in some items to donate to the foodbank. That means we’ll be baking for a good cause, making regular donations from the Spark team to people who need it the most.

We’ll share highlights on the blog and LinkedIn as the competition progresses. So, keep your eyes peeled!
