On Your Marks, Get Set... Bake! Join Us for The Great Wilton Bake Off

The Great Wilton Bake Off is happening on Saturday, March 21st from 6:00-8:00 PM at the Trackside Teen Center, and it's going to be an evening you won't want to miss. Whether you're coming to cheer on local bakers, sample incredible creations, or simply enjoy great food and even better company, this event is all about celebrating what our community does best: coming together to support a cause that truly matters.

More Than Just a Baking Competition

Channeling big Great British Bake Off energy—yes. But The Great Wilton Bake Off is more than just buttercream and bragging rights.

This night supports Wilton Kneads, where young adults with disabilities build real vocational skills through hands-on training—baking, customer service, and day-to-day business operations. Every ticket helps create more pathways to confidence, independence, and meaningful employment—one delicious bite at a time.

What to Expect (AKA: the good stuff)

It’s a cocktail-style evening with plenty to taste, people to meet, and a little friendly competition in the air.

Our amateur bakers won’t be baking live—they’ll bring their creations, and a panel of local judges will crown the winners. And yes, you’ll get plenty of chances to taste along the way.

You’ll enjoy:

• Appetizers + small bites

• Cocktails + mocktails

• Slide show + Giving Tree

• Paddle Raise + Bake Judging

• Meet the Wilton Kneads team and see the impact up close

It’s part fundraiser, part community hang, part Bake Off showdown—and all heart.

When you show up on March 21st, you’re not just having a fun night out—you’re helping create more opportunities for meaningful work and greater independence right here in Wilton.

How to Get Involved

Ready to join the fun? Here's how you can be part of The Great Wilton Bake Off:

Grab Your Tickets

Tickets and Sponsorship Opportunities are available. Bring your friends, bring your family, bring your coworkers who never shut up about The Great British Bake Off: this is the event for them.

General admission gets you access to all the baking action, appetizers, cocktails, and entertainment.

Don't wait too long, though. Space is limited, and this event tends to sell out faster than fresh-baked croissants on a Sunday morning.

Sign Up to Compete

Think you’ve got what it takes? We’re looking for brave amateur bakers.

Bakers won’t compete live—bring your finished challenge to the event and let the judges do the rest. Register here: wiltonkneads.org/bakers
