Great British Bake Off (GBBO) aired its seventh episode of the 2021 series last night and with only 3 more episodes to go until the series ends, we’re wondering who can make it to the final and win the show.
Each week amateur bakers take part in baking challenges where they attempt to pull off signature, technical and showstopper bakes.
Every episode is a combination of a baking week and this week’s episode showed the bakers taking on caramel week.
Dr. Oetker has been watching the show and keeping an eye on the online discussion. From this the baking brand has come up with its winner predictions.

In next week’s episode, week 8, Dr. Oetker predicts Lizzie, a 28-year-old car production operative from Liverpool, will be eliminated.
Bake Off judges asked her to add more finesse to her bakes and in last night’s episode, she managed it but there’s still lots of competition in her fellow contestants.
Next. they predict that Crystelle’s time in the Bake Off Tent will come to an end. Dr. Oetker’s prediction comes from a good place with them complimenting Crystelle’s baking and since she earned the star baker accolade they think she’ll stay in the competition until episode 9 where she’ll be eliminated.

Dr. Oetker thinks the show will see Chigs, Jürgen and Giuseppe in the Bake Off final, competing for the last time.
Chigs only began baking last year and has proved to be consistent throughout the show. Dr. Oetker predicts third place is on the cards for Chigs.
Jürgen and Giuseppe are thought to finish in second and first place respectively with Dr. Oetker describing them as “the strongest front runners since week 1.”
Giuseppe is thought to be the future winner of the show due to his ability to create interesting flavours and how he manages the finishing touches of his bakes.
Dr. Oetker has also looked at the Instagram followers gained by the contestants during their time on the show, week 1 to week 6.
