The Great British Bake Off (GBBO) is back and so are the pastel colours, union jack bunting and modern vintage patterns.
Set in the gorgeous English countryside, the show introduced us to a fresh batch of starry-eyed bakers and their shiny new collection of equipment.
Displayed proudly in the retro tent, one can spot a colourful display of mixers, soft pastel refrigerators and cabinets, amid the sleekest of hobs and ovens complete with disappearing doors.
If you have been swayed by the traditional British charm of the Bake Off kitchen and want to incorporate some of that style into your own home, then look no further.
Property portal Boomin have put together a list of all the items that make up the famous Bake Off tent and calculated how much it would cost to recreate it, based on an average-sized UK kitchen.
Calculating every ingredient of the famous tent, right down to the £4 mixing spoons and £14.95 gingham tablecloths, the researchers used the most up-to-date Bake Off series and the current season’s first episode to cost up the kitchen.
Coming in at an eye-watering total of £15,414 when based on an average-sized UK kitchen, the money will buy the very latest in baking technology, including Neff’s iconic Slide & Hide oven and accompanying proving drawer, in addition to the £1,150 Quooker Flex tap.
Here is a breakdown of what all you would need to recreate the GBBO kitchen of your dreams:
Michael Bruce, CEO and Founder of Boomin commented: “From the Friends apartment to episodes of Grand Designs, television has been inspiring how we style our homes for years, and when it comes to the kitchen, Bake Off is right up there for sources of inspiration.”
"But creating a Bake Off inspired kitchen that is going to look the part as well as take your baking to the next level isn’t just going to require a lick of paint and some bunting, with the show using high-end appliances that come at a sizable cost."
