Talented bakers put their skills to the test at a festive bake-off event - and wowed judges with their creations.
The Great Sunshine Bake was organised by The Chronicle Sunshine Fund, a charity that helps to transform the lives of young people with disabilities across the North East. As part of the campaign, launched in September, bakers from organisations, schools and community groups in the region ran bake sales.
The top four fundraising groups secured a place in the final. These were England Netball, Sage, The Grand and Clavis. The final bake-off was then held at The Grand Hotel Gosforth Park in Newcastle, who also sponsored the campaign.
