The Bake Off judges include chef Paco Roncero.

André Renaud, senior VP of global format sales at BBC Studios Distribution, said: “The Great Bake Off continues to bring together audiences around the world and I’m delighted that RTVE is the next home for this format in Spain, with Boxfish producing once again. With this and The Great Sewing Bee also returning to La 1, I am pleased that audiences in Spain will continue to be delighted by these shows in 2024.”

Miriam García Corrales, RTVE’s head of entertainment, said: “We are very confident that this worldwide successful format, distributed by BBC Studios Distribution and produced for RTVE with Boxfish will make a great impact on our audience, will fully entertain, excite and raise interest in the delicate art of baking.”
