The Great Celebrity Bake Off fans disgusted as Daisy Ridley makes cake modelled on toilet for revolting reason
THE Great Celebrity Bake Off fans were disgusted by Daisy Ridley’s toilet cake creation.
Singer Alexandra Burke, Celebs Go Dating narrator Rob Beckett, GBBO: An Extra Slice presenter Tom Allen and the Star Wars legend were the four latest celebrities to enter the iconic tent last night.
The four famous faces were asked to make 12 pieces of millionaire shortbread and they also had to create a tasty raspberry tart for the technical challenge.
But the creations that got everyone talking were the celeb’s showstopper cakes – as they had to create something that represented their “biggest bugbear”.
Judge of the hit show Paul Hollywood wandered over to Daisy to investigate what she was making and asked her what her biggest pet hate was.
Daisy replied: “My bugbear is people that leave the toilet seat up when they flush…”
And a confused Paul asked: “So what are you making – a loo?”
The actress replied: “I’m making a toilet. So it’s sponge for the toilet, which is lemon, the floor is jaffa cake and I’m attempting a mirror glaze on the floor…”
Host of the hit show Matt Lucas jokingly if there will there be a poo in the toilet.
She replied: “Do you know what, I was thinking about that, but I thought that’s maybe one step too far…”
And many fans of the show weren’t impressed with her idea.
One wrote: “Daisy Ridley is complaining that men leave the toilet seat up? Would she rather they left it down? I’ve never understood this. I don’t complain if a woman leaves it down and I have to raise it before I take a pee! #GBBO.”
Another tweeted: “#GBBO daisy girl…a TOILET cake?!”
A third added: “NOT THE TOILET CAKE?:!/&/&;& MISS RIDLEY WHAT ARE U DOING #GBBO.”
A fourth chimed in: “Thankfully Daisy Ridley is a fabulous Star Wars superstar as her toilet cake is, well, poo #StandUpToCancer.”
However others were living for the creation.
One wrote: “I’m with you Daisy Ridley I hate it when people leave the loo seat when flushing the toilet! #StandUpToCancer #GBBO.”
A second said: “I’d eat the crap out of Daisy Ridley’s toilet cake. Sorry bad pun. #GBBO.”
A third chimed in: “I think the toilet-seat-up cake as a bug-bear cake is a genius idea Daisy #GBBO #GreatBritishBakeOff #BakeOff.”
After Daisy had completed her bake, she put it in front of judges Paul and Prue – and they were shocked to say the least.
Putting the meaning behind the design aside, they thoroughly enjoyed the jaffa cake she made and they said the cake itself tasted delicious, despite the messy icing.
Prue wasn’t the only person who praised Daisy for her ambition on last night’s show.
In his ‘Coffee Break’ interview with Coffee Friend, former Bake Off contestant Dan Beasley-Harling said: “Daisy Ridley was chaotic energy and made it so hard for herself – but I fell in love with her ambition.”
Viewers were also left “howling” over Paul’s cheeky ‘nice crack’ comment to Tom Allen.
Inspecting the Tom’s goods, Hollywood said: “Nice crack.”
And Tom joked: “Thank you, but what do you think about the shortbread?”

Despite Daisy’s hard efforts, they weren’t enough for her to win star baker.
Paul, Prue and Matt got together towards the end of the show to discuss who they thought should bag themselves the title.
The judges admitted that they were impressed by both Daisy and Tom’s efforts but it was definitely down to Alexandra and Rob.
Paul thought that both the singer and telly star did extremely well in the showstopper challenge.
But Rob did really well in signature and not in technical meant that the Broken Heels songstress was crowned winner of the show.
