When choosing a cake recipe to wow your friends and family, do you pick a new one and simply pour your heart into it, or is it a case of batter the devil you know?

To celebrate the launch of the new, colourful and pun-tastic 'Bake My Day' range, Mason Cash has teamed up with Gransnet to give its lovely members the chance to win one of five complete sets of the Bake My Day range worth up to £130!

To take part, all you need to do is put your thinking cap on and post your baking puns on the thread here.
All entries will be judged by the team at Mason Cash, who will pick their five favourite baking puns.

The winners might feature on future additions to the range, so there if your creative wordsmithery is particularly good, it could end up in kitchens all over the world!

This competition has now closed. Thanks for all your entries. Our winners have now been chosen...please see the bottom of the thread to see who!!

I love listening to opera when I’m cooking – my favourites are Soufflédermaus and Rissoletto.

A good baker will rise to the occasion, it's the yeast she can do

There was a break-in at the bakery, all the cakes were stollen!

I love relaxing with a cuppa and a treat, reading my favourite book by Duncan A Biscuit

Hungry? Roll on breakfast!

Just bread for dinner? I hope it is a wholemeal ...

I had a nasty fall last Friday and am stuck here with my leg propped up with a badly strained ankle and swelling is horrible places - I must be very childish but this has made me laugh for the first time in days!

You can't break an omelette without making eggs.

The world is your lobster.

And if life gives you oranges, make marmalade. ;-)

"You okay?" - "Mason crumble"

Grandchild: Nan, I'm bored, when can we do some baking?
Me: Its ok love, if we win this competition it Mason (may soon?) be cookery time for us and we can make and sell cakes for Cash to raise money for Children in Need.

Old bakers never die, they just keep making lots of dough!

A baker stopped making doughnuts after he got tired of the hole thing.

Every cake counts....towards happiness!

My fishmonger announced he was having a sale so I went to see what the catch was.

Cane sugar can't be beet

You only get out what you pudding.

Or a song for the Queen "..... send her Victorias"

I d'eclair I am cooked.

"Home is where the tart is" ok I'll get my cake I'm leaving.

amaradnas Thu 16-Oct-14 16:08:49

Because of my greedy eyes
I ate too many mincy pies
and became an incredible size
People would en-quire
'Have you got a bun in the oven?'
to which I'd give a sigh-a and say
'No it's my jelly belly on display'.
Since then, I've toned my abs
and am allowed to scoff my favourite tarts
and babs, I'm looking fabs!

The SAS voted for their favourite pud - Two Pears Wins!

I'd be bowled over if I owned that gorgeous kitchen set!

galadrial Thu 16-Oct-14 17:59:12

A rolling scone gathers no moss.
A Bun in the hand is worth 2 in the oven.
All for cake and cake for all.
"I'll take the pie road and you'll take the dough road."
"A cake, a cake, my kingdom for a cake."

I have been thinking about these all afternoon.

A good baker never has a soggy bottom wink
