The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer will air on Channel 4 this Spring

This spring, The Great Celebrity Bake Off is back and the big white tent is filling up with some famous faces.

Rose Ayling-Ellis, known for Strictly Come Dancing and Doctor Who, is stepping up to the mixing bowl.

After dazzling audiences with her dancing and acting, she's now ready to take on cakes, cookies, and the dreaded technical challenge.

Also joining the competition is JoJo Siwa, the singer, dancer and YouTube favourite known for her big bows, high energy, and catchy songs.

Viewers can expect lots of sparkles, smiles, and possibly some very colourful bakes.

Each episode will feature different celebrities, who will each try to impress the judges and avoid a soggy bottom.

Other celebs competing include many other well-known names, including radio DJ Scott Mills, social media star Molly-Mae Hague, singer Rag'n'Bone Man, Waterloo Road comedian turned actor, Jon Richardson and TV and radio presenters Mark Wright and Sam Thompson.

They'll be trying to impress judges Paul Hollywood, who this time will be joined by world-famous pastry expert, Cherish Finden who is one of the hosts of Bake Off: The Professionals.

"Stepping from the professional kitchen into the famous Bake Off tent felt like my first day of school," said Finden.

"My heart was racing and I had butterflies in my tummy!"

The pastry expert enters the tent ahead of famous cook, Nigella Lawson, joining the main series later this year, after replacing judge Prue Leith.

And as always, presenters Alison Hammond and Noel Fielding will be on hand to cheer and laugh with the celebs through every bake.

By the end of each show, only one star will rise above the rest and be crowned Star Baker.

The special episodes are part of a joint fundraising campaign between Cancer Research UK and Channel 4 called 'Stand Up To Cancer' - with all of the money raised donated to funding research.
