Anyone up for a Great British Bake Off Thread? My piping bag is poised!

[Roussette]

That's it really! I love GBBO and I'm sat here waiting....

just wish I had some chocolate to enjoy it with

(I apologise if someone has started a thread, just link me to it and ignore this if so! )

beetroot.....he's gone!

Hat man's leaving. Beetroots an abomination

Vegetables and cake do not mix. Ever. In any form.

oh, here everyone is - I was on the thread with no posts

mmmmmmmmm....black forest gateau. Have foolishly promised the girls we will make whatever the showstopper is at the weekend - we will NOT be using bloody beetroot.

Liquid chocolate cake. Interesting - never heard of that before...

Nadiya's cake sounds LUSH

I do like carrot cake Grouchy!

Liney it's a marshmallow frosting -I've been doing it on my alternative cause everyone hates fruitcake in my house Christmas cake for the last couple of years

Very tasty

Sticky, gooey, chocolate cake, ooh yes

As does Sandy's. I need cake.

Dp says flora is from a family of bakers.

He might of made that up though....

Hmm, the plot thickens, they are using Kitchen aid hand mixers. Didn't they have Dualit last year?

Coffee maybe you're right, and the H&S isshoos prompted a root and branch mixer review?
And oi, Squoosh, my eyes were eagley 19 mins earlier than yours tonight.

I'm actually a bit bored by the happenings, and probably focusing more on the equipment.

I miss Norman from last year and his dramatic statements like 'I'm going crazy this week, I'm using lemon curd instead of jam'

He was so sweet.

I like the look of the shortcakey thing.

Nadiya's does sound amazing.

I really want a warning drawer.

Ooh found you all!

Nadias cake sounds amazing.

Beetroot-hat man is in some serious bother.

They need a lost property box in the corner. The hat and the hoody need to go in it.

Agreed that the Hipster will be the first out.

I've seen Sandy in another program. Trying to remember what.

Norman was ace. No fancy biscuits for him. Lard and plain flour. And something else that I've forgotten.

Carrot cake is the work of the devil.

I need my very own pastry chef. I don't have time for baking at the moment but I need cake.

Hatman can't stay surely... Beetroot for gods sake! No ta!

Apols Zebra! I was most remiss to miss your post!

I prefer the kitchenaids.
