Hi, my ds (14) is getting really into baking and GBBO. can I have some ideas for Christmas pressies please? Not really into baking myself, so what would be good basic equipment for him? I really appreciate it!

This is good:

And Mary Berry’s Fast Cakes is a classic recipe book, my family have been using our copy for about 40 years.

Rolling pin, baking beans, sugar thermometer, blow torch, electric hand mixer
You could get him a personalised cake tin or a book to write/store his recipes in. There are lots of ideas on the Lakeland website

Paul Hollywood’s book
A loaf tin and square + round cake tins
Pastry/flan cases/tins
Rolling pin
I love mason cash mixing bowls but maybe not to a teenagers taste

An apron

Agree re bakedin but I would look for discount codes . I got 3 months for £16, and dd and I really enjoyed doing the baking together

Is it the baking or the decorating? You could see if there's a local sugarcraft group and if they can offer anything. Maybe not now but in the future.
