Reality TV star Gemma Collins is known for many things, from hilarious one-liners to on-screen dramatics. She is not, however, known for baking but has appeared on The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up to Cancer to help raise money for the great cause.
During her time on the show, where she was joined in the tent by Tim Key, AJ Odudu and Jessica Hynes, Gemma shocked viewers when she used a lot of one ingredient. During the signature challenge, the bakers were tasked with creating a sandwich cake and Gemma went for a classic pink theme with raspberry and rose flavouring.
She boldly told the cameras she was using half a bottle of rose flavouring, having already said she baked by intuition and not using a recipe, and many viewers were horrified by the amount she was using. One said: "#GBBO Half a bottle of rose essence? Christ it’ll taste like she’s baked her nans toilet water!"
