Great British Bake Off viewers lose it over ‘penis snail’

THIS poor contestant on Great British Bake Off was trying to make a cute little snail out of bread. The result left both judges and viewers in stitches.

GREAT British Bake Off judge Paul Hollywood was left a giggling wreck — after one contestant baked what looked like a penis.

In tonight’s show Siberian-born Julia Chernogorova, 21, tried to make a snail and mushroom out of bread as part of the UK cooking program’s showstopper challenge, The Sun reports.

But she was left with a slightly more ... phallic-looking creation.

Oh dear.

Hollywood struggled to speak and had to compose himself after catching a glance of the self-taught baker’s efforts.

We're just hoping it's not cream-filled.

“I like the snail,” he told Julia, before falling apart in a fit of giggles.

Co-host Sandi Toksvig asked him: “Is there something about the shape of the snail in particular?”

Fellow judge Prue Leith, 77, to angrily tell him: “Paul, are you going to pull yourself together?”

Viewers of the episode in the UK had similarly enthusiastic reactions to the rather manly-looking snail:
