Any finalist will tell you that nerves are a big part of the Bake-Off® Contest experience. Some contestants, however, are affected more than others.
* Pillsbury asks contestants for any biographical information they would like released, so that interviewers may ask questions that the contestants are comfortable with. At the thirty-second Bake-Off® Contest, one finalist told Pillsbury at length about her large collection of unusual candy jars, but when television host Gary Collins asked her about them she couldn't remember what she collected! .
* Art Linkletter, the Bake-Off® Contest's emcee for many years, knew what to expect from America's most ambitious cooks. But no one was more surprised than he when he asked a prize winner what she had baked and she replied, "I forgot!"
* One finalist reported that on the way to the Bake-Off® Contest she handed her bank teller a grocery list to cash instead of a check.
