Kings Birthday Bake-Off!

Home bakers! Pop the date in your diary. Sunday 24 May 2026. Still at Firth Tower but being held in the Arts Society building - between the Settler Cottage and the Madill shed. Once again, we'll have Mrs. Shirley Frew QSM as judge, with prizes of chocolate bars, honey, and Firth Tower tea towel for winners!

This year we have an extra category for bakers.

Division 1 – Victoria Sponge
Division 2 – Wildcard – Cake and baked goods
Division 3 – Children – cake and baked goods
Division 4 – Allergy – Gluten/Dairy free – cake and baked goods

Bake an entry or simply come along for the shared afternoon tea (for a gold coin donation). All of the details can be found on the Kings Birthday Bake-off poster on our Facebook page. Want to take a look around the museum while you're here? $5 admission all day! It's going to be a fun afternoon!
