New Scoring Points in 2025

A new scoring system for team bakers has been put in place for the 2025 season. The weekly point schedule is listed below.

Technical Bake/Star Baker Weekly Points
***NEW IN 2025***
This season, points for performance in the technical bake, as well as star baker, will progressively increase each week.
Weekly Scoring
Based on the week a baker is eliminated, they will earn a select number of points. Those weekly points will be multiplied by the rank they've been given in the team selection: Weekly points are:
Week 1 - 1
Week 2 - 2
Week 3 - 3
Week 4 - 4
Week 5 - 5
Week 6 - 10
Week 7 - 15
Week 8 - 20
Week 9 - 25
Week 10 (Finale) - 30
Winner - 40
Baker ranks are worth their corresponding value (9 is worth 9, 8 is worth 8, etc.). Both team bakers are worth 10 points while captains are worth 15. The longer your higher ranked bakers stay in the tent, the more points they'll earn!
Scoring example
Team A ranks Abdul with a 3
Team B ranks Abdul with an 8
Team C ranks Abdul as their captain
Abdul is eliminated in Week 5
Team A receives 15 (3 points for ranking X 5 points for Week 5)
Team B receives 40 (8 points for ranking X 5 points for Week 5)
Team C receives 75 points ( 15 points for ranking X 5 points for Week 5)
