Coming up next is Pastry Week! It's sad to say that we bid farewell to two of our bakers, Saku and Rowan. Let's send our thoughts and prayers their way. Don't forget, we'll be back on Tuesday!

We appreciate all the kind words and input you have shared on this liveblog. It is always a bright spot in an otherwise dreary time, lasting for a full 75 minutes.

Catch you later chicks on Tuesday.

No One's Exiting The Tent This Week

Tasha's sickness caused their decision to move on to the next round with only two bakers. It's understandable if one baker leaves, but the possibility of two leaving always makes the Bake Off feel too intense.

I stated it initially and I will repeat it once more... certain customs remain consistent!

Matty Shines As Star Baker

Wow, I am impressed. Initially, I anticipated that Matty would leave the competition early, especially following his lackluster performance in Cake Week. However, he has consistently improved each week, and has grown increasingly self-assured. It's truly a joy to witness.

Oh dear, Rowan exclaimed. "Paul, I'm afraid you cannot come!" He is a necessary presence and we request he stays. Can we skip the week where someone gets eliminated?

Cristy is really having a rough week, but I believe she'll be okay for this week.

Similarly, Saku has maintained her original textures and flavors.

Saku's response was, "I have had enough of chocolate. I will never eat it again in my lifetime."

Nicky's baking has received great reviews, although her flavors may have been a bit too strong. Rowan seems vulnerable this week and could potentially be eliminated from the competition.

Josh received negative feedback on his piping technique, despite only having a four-hour time frame to complete the entire baking project.

Paul, who appears to be getting paid based on his sexual references lately, expresses that he has an excess of nuts in his mouth and finds it problematic.

According to Rowan, things have not gone well for him lately. It's common for him to get positive feedback for his flavors, but this week has been different. He hasn't received any compliments.

Prue stated that she finds it highly impressive, especially when viewed from a distant location.

I'm not entirely convinced that Prue's remark is a genuine expression of praise.

When she fell off her horse, her legs appeared as if they were sitting on the ground.

"She mentioned that they've had a tiring day," I couldn't help but admire her consistent positive outlook.

Dan must have been feeling fortunate that he didn't leave home during the previous week. Even though his creation is technically a pudding, it has unique and impressive flavors, making it the center of attention. Fortunately, he moved on to the following week without any difficulties.

Prue said to Matty, "Take your shirt off."

Hey, everyone is talking about THE BOX. Don't worry, stay relaxed.

The Big Moment: Time To Judge The Showstopper

Let's begin with Matty, whose baked goods are not as visually appealing as before, but they've received positive feedback for their taste. He has accomplished a lot this week and should feel proud of himself.

So, do we have any guesses as to who's getting eliminated? Or is nobody getting eliminated?

We admire our optimistic queen.

Dana should definitely have her own program! Perhaps it could be called "Dana's Ventures," in which she endeavors to try out different activities on a weekly basis while keeping a positive attitude even if things don't go according to plan. Her optimistic demeanor is particularly important during these challenging times.

It appears that all the bakers had a difficult time, but despite all the obstacles, Dana maintains a positive attitude and perseveres.

She experienced difficulty in removing her horse's legs from the cast, hence she showcased them without legs, mentioning that they were in a sitting position.

She consistently wears a pleasant expression.

Dan is assisting Saku in finishing her baking since she has fallen far behind.

Rowan's creation for the show is quite striking as it resembles a coffin.

This is the most terrible concoction I have ever cooked.
