CAKE-making in the Black Country is set for a touch of Hollywood when a big name baker rolls into town.

Paul Hollywod, star of TV’s The Great British Bake Off, is taking his show on the road for a live tour which will include a show at Wolverhampton’s Civic Hall.

During the show, on Friday May 2, the top baker will be demonstrating his favourite recipes and giving the audience an insight into the world of TV cooking.

He will also be revealing the story of his journey to TV fame, from how his father persuaded him to join the family baking business instead of becoming a sculptor and how he went on to become head baker at some of the world’s most exclusive hotels.

The show, called Get Your Bake On, will also see members of the audience invited onto the stage to bake with Paul Hollywood and take part in a question and answer session with the star.

Paul Hollywood said: “When I was approached to do a tour, I jumped at the chance, I can’t wait to share my passion for baking with a live audience.”
