Great British Bake Off/Show 7: Pastry Week



This episode may be late, but unfortunately there has been a tragedy…One of the personal sort, and the other of the international scandalous sort. Yes. Henry has left the tent. K & K have lots of feelings about rough puff and full puff and what actually constitutes a US vs. UK pie.  But what this episode is really about, besides the quest for good, good, good lamination is the very real lamentations of a lad we have all been rooting for since we saw him rollerblading down the block and playing the organ for the clergy. But pressing on through the darkness to the glorious light of the tent, there is only one real question that K & K need to answer… Who the bl**dy h*ll is going to win this thing? Butter chilled, meats minced and on your mark- get set- A DATE WITH THE BAKE!


Great British Bake Off/Show 7: Festival Week



Festival Week for the bakers means more fringe, more exposed buns and more drama than poor Kimberly’s heart can take! We get a Hollywood Handshake for the ages,  a “home-made” Prue put-down that is so very cringe and one of the most difficult showstoppers to grace the tent. K & K learn how to spell and say Kardemulumabullar for an absurdly long time and try to figure out what constitutes an “Essex girl”. If that sounds like your favorite tipple then flip on that broiler, grate those peels and please enjoy this episode of A Date with the Bake!


Great British Bake Off/Show 7: Roaring 20’s Week



The results have left us speechless. Well, not really because when it comes the Bake-off there is always something to discuss. But the Roaring 20’s week have left us feeling like we just got a custard pie of our own right in the face. Who is still baking their way to glory and who is left flapping around the tent trying to find their footing? Couldn’t be more grateful that prohibition is over -we might need for this PruPaul decision. So grab your liquor of choice, figure out what a saboyon is and on your mark… get set… ADATEWITHBAKE!


Great British Bake Off/Show 7: Dairy Week



Like, don’t have a cow, man! The bakers are back in the tent for Week 4 and Kimberly and Katie are here to discuss the best and worst dairy themed bakes of the weekend, as well as the stomach churning final decision that leaves all the bakers in a state of shock. As we reach the halfway point- who seems to be stumbling on the curdles and which bakers will find a whey to milk this opportunity for all that it is worth. Find out who K & K think is the cream of the crop and for the first time, what the twitter world is saying about series 7 of the GBBO. Make sure to listen to the end when Kimberly spills the biggest British tea of the season! So massage that whisking arm, take a double dose of Lactaid and enjoy this 4th installment of  A Date With The Bake!


Great British Bake Off/Show 7: Bread Week



This weeks episode is carbo-loaded full of all things bread! A few of our bakers are rising to the challenge and a few really go a rye. There are a lot of hot crossed puns and one particularly hot button issue (cheesegate) while Paul Hollywood, the bread king, keeps a particularly watchful eye on the contestants baps and bakes. The bakers really knead to prove themselves in these challenges if they hope to have a chance of scoring a spot in the finale. Who is really on a roll? Find out as Kimberly and Katie discuss this game changing week of the Bake Off. So pull out that proving drawer, flour that rolling pin and on your mark, get set- ADATEWITHBAKE!   (High pun count in this description is on purpose because I am just a gluten for punishment)
