Great British Bake Off is topped by a teacher!

The top cook this year is Alice, with her signature bake - fruit pavlova. She is backed up by Betway at 6.50 (11/2). The teacher is closely followed by another runner-up Amelia, who is 7.00 (6/1) and would do everything to impress the judges on Tuesday, August 27.

This year’s cast is rather young comparing to previous editions with most participants aged under 30. Last instalment’s winner - Rahul Mandal was only the third man to win the show. This year the men market is led by Michael, 26, who is priced at 8.00 (7/1), David, 36 with the odds of 8.50 (15/2) and Jamie, who is 9.00 (8/1).

Long story short, it is a competition, therefore, someone has to be eliminated at some point. According to top online bookmakers, there are two main candidates. Dan and Helena are joint-favourites to leave the scene first. They both are given the odds of 7.00 (6/1). Looking at the cast this year, they just do not really fit aged 32 and 40 respectively.
