It’s all part of what makes The Great British Bake Off so fun. Beautiful cakes and bakes, funny presenters and lots of saucy puns…no wonder everyone loves the Bake Off.

Mel’s jugs
"Keep an eye on your jugs."

“Irregular balls”
"That's how you get those irregular-shaped balls."

Cheeky Rob
"I'm looking forward to giving you one!"

Soggy bottoms

Mary’s naughty remark
"Your lovely sausage!"

Sue’s baps
"Time to slap those baps down."

Mary strikes again
"I've got the taste of nuts coming through."

Mischievous Mel
"Bakers are doing their best to get an extra inch."

“Perfectly stiff”
"There it is looking perfectly stiff."
