Syabira Yusoff was crowned winner of the Great British Bake Off 2022. After last week's emotional semi final that saw Janusz axed from the Bake Off tent, Patisserie week needed perfection and it dashed another baker's dreams of becoming a champion in the tent. It was Abdul and Sandro who Prue and Paul decided to let go in the final, with the electronics engineer and the London nanny failing to impress with a summer pudding bomb and a showstopper.

On winning, Syabira admitted, "This is the biggest achievement in my life. All of the hard work, all of the trial and error - it's all worth it. I'm very, very proud!"
