Blackcurrant & Ginger Cheesecake for Dessert Week 🍧

[lazy-whistledown]

The name “spotted dick” by itself already conjures images of the salacious nature. But when you follow it with words such as “moist”, “stud(ded)”, “swell” & “shriveled” then we’re dangerously tottering towards NC-17 territory.

Has it always been called spotted dick? Whoever thought of that name? Why not call it steamed pudding?

This episode is like a slightly lighter shade of Fifty Shades of Grey what with the “tying up” and Dylan’s fifty shades of grey box.

Trust the Irishman to bring in a deep fat fryer for a trifle making contest

It was dessert week on Bake Off this week, and sadly, my favourite contender had to leave the tent. What will we do without Saku!? On my end of things, dessert week is a very broad category to bake with. So I dug into a list of classic British desserts, and ultimately decided to make sticky toffee pudding. However, I didn't realise until serving it up that we had no custard or ice cream? Not that it needed it, of course!

GBBO Liveblog- Dessert Week

”I'd spend 40 days 40 nights in that dessert”, is a very true quote from Fleabag this week (you should totally watch that show btw). Lets dive in!

The intro with Matt Lucas’s head was surprising and very funny

Peter’s quarter zip!

“Key lime pie vibes”

Hermine is a great jar lady

Ban Marie seems like a metal band name

Impossible to please, thats Paul, thats Paul

If Peter is going home, I’m going to cry

His cheeks were so red when Matt and Noel were making those jokes with Mr.Spoon

Hermine’s look gorgeous

Dave’s look so neat! I really want to have one

The flavor is good though! Sorry Peter

No one except Dave seemed to do well in this challenge

For once the judges were better than Laura had hoped. 

“enigmatic gingham” thats not dramatic

1700s?!?!?!

Hermine’s face is PURE DISGUST when the judges annouced the Sussex pudding and I love it

Of COURSE you would know 

“This is evil” yes Hermine. You’re right. She is me when I’m taking a test I havn’t prepared for

A whole lemon?? What? What dessert has a whole lemon in the middle of a pastry? This is the extreme version of the yolks in the middle of a moon cake

I love how Hermine is shamelessly copying everyone

Hermine’s expression when she said she put a whole vanilla pod instead of a half was so funny. Someone needs to gif this episode

Dave, honey, I’m so sorry

Hermine!

Are any not leaking?

No one did well in this challenge. Because they didn’t specify the steaming time taking up almost the entire time!!

Poor Peter!

I love how Matt had to prod everyone to applaud Laura

Yeah Prue, they’re your favorite because YOU’RE ANCIENT! Stop bitching about them not completing your revolution-era puddings

Hermine is done with “Anglo-Saxon things” which is such a mood

Henry left in the quarter final last year too... you got this Peter

You’ve been reading this long enough to know about my blatant Peter favoritism

Hermine, throwing shade so much this episode! It looks good on you

Bubbling orange juice does not look good

Peter does like a Christmas theme

“Okey dokey and nice fast lick” -Peter

This does look like surgery

The music is sooo tence

I love how Dave is like, chilling and enjoying a snack, while everyone panics

They all did super well on this one

How are they going to bring it up to the main table?

Laura is in line for star baker today. And her expression when Paul is critiquing it is priceless

To be fair, this is a jelly cake, if any bake had to have too much gelitain you should expect it now

Peter is going home. Ugh. I think he knows it too. Fuck

Hermine could get star baker too, she’s firing on all rounds today

Hermine for star baker!!! Yes you deserve it

Marc is leaving???? I was litterally calling it for Peter. I’m so sorry Marc. You are fantastic and it’s been so fun watching you

Semi-final next week! This is getting intense

Well, this was a great episode and please leave your comments down below! I’d love to hear your thoughts and I’d love someone outside my family to talk about this with
