TICKETS have gone on sale for a show presented by the star of the Great British Bake Off, which promises to deliver an evening of "fun stories, demos and audience participation".

Paul Hollywood will visit St George's Hall in Bradford to demonstrate recipes and reveal secrets of being a TV chef.

He will also be taking the audience on a journey through his life in baking, from his father persuading him to ditch his path as a sculptor and join the family baking business, to tales of his time as head baker at exclusive hotels, resulting in him becoming one of the country's finest bakers.

The audience can also expect anecdotes from his time filming BBC2 hit show The Great British Bake Off.

He will demonstrate some of his favourite recipes during the show, and four audience members will be invited to take part in a baking challenge, with the chance to become 'star baker'.

Paul 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."

Paul is a guest speaker at several food festivals, including the Cumbrian Food Festival, the BBC Good Food Show and the Cake and Bake Show In May 2013, he began appearing as a judge on The American Baking Competition on CBS.
