Editorial interest 86/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An unofficial archive of memorable Great British Bake Off handshakes, the bakers who earned them, and the bakes behind the gesture.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-07 issue.

Field notes

The archive records each handshake by baker, bake, week, series, and public source, then connects the moment to recipes and methods when available. The homepage reports 64 verified handshakes across 16 UK series, with 57 recipes containing methods, and organizes the material through baker, series, theme, and challenge-type views. A planned hardcover is tentatively aimed at Thanksgiving 2026, but the site says there is no price or pre-order yet.
