The Great Kaffeine Bake Off - Try this at home
Back in February, we had what we called the great Kaffeine sticker off. Those who know us may know our stickers and how iconic they have become in the area of Fitzrovia.
We have to do quite a few per day, so we had a competition to see who could go the fastest. We love a competition here.

Not ones to be outdone, the kitchen staff decided to get in on the act and have recently held what they have called the great Kaffeine Bake Off. Understandably, they are very proud of what they do, and I am proud of them, so when Chef Rory started timing how long it takes to bake his ANZACS, we though it best to record it for posterity.
Our baked goods such as our brownies, ANZACS, banana bread and portuguese tarts are also iconic in the area, and we also go through quite a few per day.
The rules were that you got all your ingredients and equipment ready and the timer went off when you got the goods in the oven and of course, the taste test at the end.
We must remember that Chef Jared has not really baked anything in his section for over three years, and he properly smashed out the chocolate brownies, as a true legend should. No, there is no prize for overall, just the kudos that comes with being the fastest baker in the West.
