Great British Bake Off 2016

I hardly noticed the cakes, I was far too distracted by that lipstick

Same here - it was rather in your face wasn't it

Now looking forward to Friday nights "GBBO - an extra slice"; I do really enjoy that as well.

[Diflower]

Just watched it, eating (bought) cake
Some of them look really good don't they, others are no doubt trying hard
Please don't ever offer me gooseberry cake though

[JoM]

Di, I don't fancy gooseberry cake much either

Ria I've not broken it to John yet about Extra Slice He was warned not to sit theremaking sarcastic comments last night

Me too We've never watched Extra Slice but will now

[JoM]

I've made Jaffa cakes this evening - they were lovely!

[Gal]

Wow I am impressed!!

[Workingman]

Auntie Rene used to make them when she was doing a bakeathon, but she never used bun trays. The sponge mix was just spooned onto a sheet of greaseproof on a flat tray and she used Seville marmalade as the jelly base. Oh, and Cadbury's milk chocolate to top them off.

Drool.

Oh yum, Jaffa cakes are my absolute 'can't resist' favourites - I rarely buy them as I can easily scoff the lot

The homemade ones sounds scrumptious, really looking forward to watching this later

Mine too but I now buy them in Lidl and they are so much nicer than McVities and so much cheaper!!
