This Incredibly Phallic Cake Popped Up On 'Great British Bake Off'

This Incredibly Phallic Cake Popped Up On 'Great British Bake Off'

It gave Paul Hollywood a laugh

I love a bit of chocolate cake, even more so when it's chocolate lava cake. Having said that, I'm not sure I'd be dying to tuck into the phallic monstrosity which popped up on last night's Great British Bake Off.

Tasked with a technical challenge which involved making 'molten lava cakes', one baker, Yan, decided that this was the best arrangement for hers:

What was she thinking?

Now, look, I'm no baking expert, but is she taking the piss? Isn't this supposed to be the very best of the country's amateur bakers? And she's rocked up with six chocolate fondants in the shape of a cock? What would Mary say, eh?

The show was well-known for its innuendo while on the BBC with Paul's soggy bottoms and Mary's finger sucking. However, now it's switched over to Channel 4 it looks like it's no holds barred on the filth front.

In fairness to Yan, she realises what she's created the second she puts the last little lava cake on the plate. She says: "If you're going to serve a cake, serve it phallic." I've never heard that particular baking idiom before, but fair enough.

As host Sandi Toksvig picks up the plate, she says: "Wow. Be careful how you serve that one." Before presenting it to Paul Hollywood, who instantly bursts out laughing.

Prue Leith was less impressed, saying 'it looks pretty dreadful, really'. Well, she's not wrong there.

Some viewers took to Twitter to blast Prue for being harsh, with one asking 'who do you think you are, love?'.

But I disagree, I reckon Prue needs to go full-on Gordon Ramsay and start screaming and effing and blinding at people. That's what Great British Bake Off is missing, in my humble opinion.

Sadly for Yan, the cakes tasted as good as they looked, in that they were bad, and the judges were left eating raw cake mix. Not good.

This isn't the first penis-cake to appear on this year's GBBO, either. A few weeks back, contestant Sophie Faldo shocked viewers by making this:

I don't even know what to say here.

Here's me thinking Great British Bake Off is a lovely, gentile programme my nan watches and it turns out she's watching this. I'm shocked and appalled.
