18. Soggy Bottom Ornament

Price: $10.12+

Get it here

Here’s a hand-drawn ornament that will make your loved one’s future Christmases super special. Or gift it to them a little early so they can decorate their tree with GBBS this year. This particular listing is for a “no one likes a soggy bottom” ornament, but the seller has many more if you go to their page. You can also get a “star baker” or “on your marks, get set, bake” ornament. Or go big and customize your own ornament so it can say exactly what you want. The seller offers three sizes: 2-2.5 inches, 2.5-3 inches and 3-4 inches. These sizes are ranges because these ornaments are wood slices and therefore not perfectly precise. That homemade imperfection just adds charm, however, and should appeal to the people in your life who are fans of a show about creative, hand-made items. Customization and larger sizes will cost a little extra.

The PDF pack includes 10 cards, so you can play several times or throw a whole GBBS party for just $5. It’s a great way to get people together in a low-stress fashion during a hectic season. Some of the squares include fan favorites like “technical challenge,” “baker earns star baker,” “baker drops their bake or it falls over,” and “baker or judge says bread or loaf.” It might not take long to score a bingo on this board, so make sure you’re paying close attention.

GBBS Commemorative Decorative Plate25 / 26

PopPorcelain / Etsy

23. GBBS Commemorative Decorative Plate

Price: $63

Get it here

We saved this last one for the really hardcore fans. This plate has two faces on it – two of the hosts or judges of the show. There’s a lot of different varieties. You can have Paul and Mary, Paul and Prue, Mel and Sue for a true classic, Sandi and Noel, or Noel and Matt. Each plate is about 7.5 to 8.5 inches around. There are even four different styles to choose, from two that are plainer to two that have a floral design all around the rims. They evoke a vintage look and feel that is classic British sensibility. Note that these plates are purely decorative and not intended for food. In fact, water can ruin the design on the plate. Instead, use the hanger on the back to display them on a wall, perhaps even in the kitchen.
