The Great Celebrity Bake Off 2026 / Channel 4
The 24 stars taking part in this year’s The Great Celebrity Bake Off in aid of Stand Up To Cancer have been revealed.
After Dame Prue Leith announced her departure from the show last month, Nigella Lawson was subsequently confirmed as her replacement – effective from this year’s civilian series.
This year’s celeb edition was filmed last year, however, so Bake Off: The Professionals judge Cherish Finden is stepping in alongside Paul Hollywood for the new run of episodes.
“I am delighted to be joining Paul in judging Celebrity Bake Off for SU2C,” Finden said. “Stepping from the professional kitchen into the famous Bake Off tent felt like my first day of school – my heart was racing and I had butterflies in my tummy!
“Whilst I definitely haven’t left my ruler at home, judging these wonderful celebrities is about more than just precision, it’s about spreading joy and supporting a meaningful cause. To be part of SU2C and see the contestants push themselves out of their comfort zone for such a good cause was simply brilliant.”
