2026 League Guide

Fantasy Bake Off 2026

Because watching people bake wasn’t competitive enough.
The spectator version

Your 2026 fantasy league guide

All the rules. All the bakers. None of the scorekeeping homework.

This site is information-only. Use it to check the season schedule, scout the bakers, and review the scoring rules. Team rosters, draft results, standings, and episode scorekeeping live in the league admin’s private master copy.

After each scored episode, the league admin will calculate the results and share a polished weekly scorecard image with the group.

Your private draft notebook

My Fantasy Team

Dream team today. Draft-night reality tomorrow.

Before Draft Night: use these four spots as your personal top-4 wishlist. During or after the draft: edit them to match the four bakers you actually drafted. These choices are stored only in this browser on this device and are not visible to the league admin or other players.

Tip: if you switch phones or browsers, these personal picks will not automatically move with you. Just re-select your four bakers on the new device.
