GBBO Caramel week! 2021 #2 thread

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

New thread for tonight. Will they have to replicate a Tunnock's product? Creme caramel? Can't think what else they might have to do.

Chugs had the worst first round and they usually seem to ignore the technical. Come on, Giuseppe!

I just welled up at the McDonald's advert, wtf is wrong with me?!

Jurgen would have made an amazing wonderland display

We can’t go back esme. We can’t know

I'd be happy with Chigs.

He's grown with every round. Had a few disasters but he doesn't stay down for long. Rolls his sleeves up and gets on with it.

If he doesn't win based on tonight then it's fixed imho.

Chigs 🤦‍♀️

All good. All had wobbles. But over the whole series ? Giuseppe.

Ah I like Crystelle, she must be gutted. I felt like her focaccia was going to go wrong when they kept showing her drowning it in oil. But don't have a particular favourite and it seems like Chiggs has it and that's okay with me.

I'd say Giuseppe is the best all round cook as well as baker. But it's not a cookery show.

Ooh that focaccia !

Such a shame. I wanted her to win. Don't think she can now

@TheDogsMother

Not Chigs. Giuseppe would be robbed.

How? Today Chigs has done better than Giuseppe and has been the most improved throughout.

And for the record I really wanted Giuseppe to win as I think he's been fab the whole way through.

On today Chigs. I think from the cynic point of view all of them are marketable. Why did they start with sweet with Crystelle, the others were savoury?

@ablutiions

Ooh that focaccia !

Such a shame. I wanted her to win. Don't think she can now

She seemed to have it swimming in butter didn't she? I saw Paul Hollywood stare at it and it looked to be an inch deep in butter.

How sad for the last taste of the series to be a total fail.

I loved how creative they all were. Felt like a really quiet final, lack of energy.

I have wanted Giuseppe or Jurgen to win since the first episode. Really hope he does.

Glad they got audience

I wish I could have scoffed one of those yum looking panna cottas

Oil drowning wouldn't have ended up raw would it? And how did she miss the floppiness as she took it out of the tin. As Paul lifted it it bent in 2.

But Chigs's carrot cake was the worst. It tasted all wrong. He came middle in the technical. His cat cake looked a bit basic and his biscuits lacked a bit of flavour but he may have just edged the showstopper. They said Giuseppe's looked simple and his choux buns had gone a bit soft. It's very close.

I can’t bear it…

Yes esme agree

I think it probably made the dough so wet Unescorted that it just couldn't cook

Yaaaaaaasssssss!!!

yay!

Yes!

Ooooooh I'm surprised at that!

But happy for him.
