A Witney woman is in the running to be crowned the best office baker in Britain.

Natalie Steer has been selected as a finalist in Swiss kitchenware brand Zyliss' national Best Office Baker competition.

She is now set to compete in the final on Wednesday, November 13, at London's Divertimenti Cookery School.

Ms Steer, who works for a dry-cleaning company in Witney, said: "I’ve always loved baking, whether it’s whipping up a batch of brownies for my family or surprising my colleagues with something sweet to brighten their day.

"I actually started our own office baking competition to add a bit of fun and friendly rivalry to the workplace, and it’s become a much-anticipated event each year.

"Being chosen as a finalist for the Best Office Baker competition is such an exciting opportunity, and I’m thrilled to take my passion for baking beyond our office walls."

Ms Steer was chosen from dozens of office bakers after submitting her best creations.

She will now go head-to-head against Charlotte Dibble from Oakham, Rutland, and Emma Greenslade from Hitchin, Hertfordshire.

The final will see the three bakers creating their best carrot cakes in front of a panel of expert judges.

The winner will be crowned the UK’s Best Office Baker and awarded the Zyliss Baker’s Dozen Kit, a selection of 13 essential baking tools.
