In the season long competitions, home bakers, separated into groups, compete against the others within their group in a baking competition. They have two hours to prepare a bakery item only needing to present a total of three of those finished items, one to each judge who will mark it on three criteria, the last being the most important: presentation, creativity, and taste. The winner in each of the preliminary rounds is brought back for the finale, the finalists who go into that final bake being judged on one further criteria, namely compatibility of the baked good with Silos Bakery. The winner of the finale will have that finale bakery item featured among Silos' seasonal menu and go home with a substantial cash prize.
