Enjoy some tasty treats at this year's West End Bake Off as teams from some of theatreland's biggest shows compete to win the Bake Off trophy.

The event, which will be held on Saturday 16 July at St Anne's Church Courtyard, is in aid of theatrical charity Acting For Others. All money raised from the sale will go to support the charity.

Fourteen shows including The Book of Mormon, Miss Saigon and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory competed for the prize last year with The Mousetrap ultimately scooping the coveted trophy.

Barbara Windsor and Christopher Biggins judged the 2015 competition which raised over £4,000.

This year’s judges and participants will be announced shortly.

The West End Bake Off will be held at St Anne’s Church Courtyard London W1D 6AF from 11am to 1pm. For further details, click here.
