The Bake Off Caramel Week result gave Moyin his first Star Baker win of the series, while Connie became the eighth baker to leave the tent in the quarter-final on Tuesday 10 November. The bakers faced three caramel-based challenges, from a classic treacle tart to towering millionaire’s shortbread and a spectacular nougatine sculpture showpiece. Moyin impressed the judges with his hazelnut opera cake beneath a nougatine crown, and Tom won the technical.
Connie, 63, had been Star Baker in Dessert Week, and her departure left four bakers in the competition: Moyin, Tom, Mo and Gabe. Moyin came second in the technical, followed by Gabe, Connie and Mo, while Tom came first. The judges, Paul Hollywood and Nigella Lawson, had a difficult choice, and the presenters, Alison Hammond and Noel Fielding, shared the news at the end of the episode. The semi-final is Patisserie Week, on Tuesday 17 November.
