Building Stories with Data

For this week’s #TidyTuesday Technical Challenge, I decided to recreate one of januszbakes s iconic drip cakes using data from the #GBBO.

Ingredients

Method

Graph with the GBBO logo in the form of a tiered drip cake. Each tier represents an episode. The text reads: Race to the top Each contestant from the tenth season is represented by a drip, charting their way from the original baker's dozen to the final three. The length of the drip shows their place in the technical. The baker with the poorest technical score (the longest drip) is seldom the one to leave the tent.

You have five hours… On your marks, get set, BAKE!

(Getting that fade without a white background took me a lot of problem solving - but it was worth it!)
