Although production for season two of The Witcher has been postponed, the cast and crew members have been baking up some delicious fun—literally. What started with a simple twitter post from casting director Sophie Holland, has cascaded into drool-worthy baked goods and a bit of fun.
Looks like some delicious bread, and why not add a little fun by challenging someone else to a bake off?

Actor Paul Bullion, playing the witcher Lambert in season two, brought his A-game with the help of his housemate Jack Douglas:

Showrunner Lauren Hissrich made a tasty meatloaf, but it sounds like she’ll have to try harder to impress this crew:
