And when things go wrong, it tends to end in a delicious disaster.
So, here are the biggest failures in “The Great British Baking Show” history.
Some contestants redeemed themselves and went on to win the show.
However, for others, their mistake was one step too far.
And speaking about his bad cop image, he said, “People compare me to Simon Cowell.
I’ve seen Simon, and he said, ‘They say you’re like me.’
But I think Simon’s gone soft.
I’m much stronger than him.
Mine’s all about the quality of thebaking, not the personality.
It shook viewers to the core.
Ian was part of “The Great British Baking Show’s” 2014 cohort.
With his fantastic beard, he was a memorable face in the tent.
However, he’s gone down in the show’s history for another reason.
Tasked with making a baked Alaska on a very warm day, the bakers were in stress mode.
Making the perfect sponge and ice cream in difficult conditions was no small task.
This meant a lot of walking back and forth to the freezers.
However, at other times their fellow bakers have acted like a little bit of a hindrance.
In 2013, Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry tasked the bakers with making a trifle.
As it was a classic dessert, they were expected to put their own twist on it.
However, this isn’t where one of the bakers fell down.
With a limited number of fridges, it could get quite confusing as to whose sweet treats are whose.
And that’s exactly what happened to Howard.
After putting his custard away, Deborah took Howard’s custard out mistaking it for her own.
Putting it into her dessert, Howard had to use hers.
To rub salt into the wound, Howard’s custard was near perfect.
However, Deborah did own up to what happened and Howard took credit for his tasty creation.
His cake creations were phenomenal.
However, that isn’t to say he was consistently great.
During a technical, John and the rest of the bakers were asked to make four Rum Babas.
These were dainty cakes, made with yeast with syrup on top.
However, John totally missed the mark.
Instead of folding sugar into his sweet, sugary treat he accidentally laced it with salt.
In judging Paul Hollywood didn’t hold back.
After having a healthy mouthful he spat out the cake.
Mary Berry didn’t even get so far as trying a bite.
During dessert week she’d decided to make a set of a banoffee pie and chocolate fondant puddings.
As she moved her chocolate fondant puddings, they slid off the tray.
They didn’t just land all over the floor, they covered her trousers too.
She had big plans for the presentation of her lemon, coconut, and chocolate cake.
However, the summer of 2018 was seriously hot and the tent absorbed and trapped the heat.
Rarely have the hosts played any part in the baking.
In Episode 2, the bakers were asked to make some classic English muffins.
Spotting an opportunity to have a chat, host Sue Perkins approached his station and got comfortable.
