Warning! This article contains spoilers about the latest episode of The Great British Bake Off.

Great British Bake Off viewers have been left devastated after a fan favourite was axed from the tent on Tuesday night.

Chocolate Week saw Sura sent home after serving up a raw cake to judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith.

The 31-year-old pharmacy dispenser from London failed to impress over the three challenges, producing some less-than-perfect chocolate brownies in the Signature, struggling with her babka in the Technical, and underbaking her white chocolate cake in the Showstopper.

After exiting the competition, Sura said: “I’m gutted but what’s done is done.

“I’m not going to be bitter about it, I have had a great time.”

She added: “I hate white chocolate, I hate chocolate end of. I don’t think I will ever eat chocolate again.”

There was an outpouring of support for Sura on social media after her exit, having won the hearts of fans with her comic timing and facial expressions, as well as her previous bakes, which had marked her out as an early favourite.

I would have eaten the entirety of Sura’s raw cake to keep her on Bake off tbh #GBBO

I think @BritishBakeOff should do an 'All Stars' series like Drag Race, so Sura can come back and redeem herself. I thought she was going to win! #BakeOff #GBBO pic.twitter.com/DNmpHt9DLO

It's going to take a while for me to get over Sura leaving bake off. I thank you for your patience in this time.

Really liked Sura, loved her humour too. Gutted to see her go. Think that’s enough emotion for me for one day! #GBBO

Sura is my fave and she’s gonna be going home 💔 #GBBO pic.twitter.com/0h2IJCyDGz

I'm sad to see Sura go. She's been phenomenal the whole series and had one bad week, when everyone else did too.

By comparison Lottie has been middle of the road the whole series and also had a bad week.

Seems like they traded a good baker for a mediocre one 🤔#GBBO

Sura was the best thing about Bake Off ffs #GBBO pic.twitter.com/CCXnCDjhih

Lottie, 31, a pantomime producer from West Sussex, narrowly avoided being axed from the competition, while project manager Mark, 32, was named star baker.

Next week will see the eight remaining bakers tackle Pastry Week, and from the look of the trailer at the end of Tuesday night’s episode, there looks set to be a number of disasters.

In the meantime, you can relive all of Sura’s best bits in a video the official Bake Off Twitter account tweeted below...
