“The Great British Bake Off” contestant Daybreak Hollyoak has died at 61.
Her population made the pathetic announcement on Hollyoak’s Instagram on Friday, sharing the inside track “with a heavy heart.”
“Not only a wonderfully talented baker but first and foremost an amazing mother, grandmother, wife and friend,” the remark reads. “Dawn passed away peacefully surrounded by her family. We will miss her forever, but promise to continue her baking legacy!”
A reason for demise has no longer been disclosed.
Hollyoak, a former IT supervisor who competed at the baking display in 2022, was once hailed as a “beautiful soul” and “a joy” through pals, population and fanatics.
“I’m so sorry to hear that, send my love to the family, a lovely lady x,” wrote Paul Hollywood, a pass judgement on at the display.
“I will miss my friend terribly, a beautiful and talented lady inside and out, fly high my friend, life just won’t be the same without you,” commented Carole Edwards, a fellow contestant at the identical season as Hollyoak. “Sending all my love to the family.”
“This is devastating news,” wrote Giuseppe Dell’Anno, the winner of the 2021 season. “I only met Dawn once, but I was blown away by her joyous personality and her infectious smile. She will be sorely missed, but will live in the heart of those who loved her forever.”
As described through her profile bio at the display’s reputable web page, Hollyoak liked “the challenge of an illusion cake” — “the more impossible-sounding the better” — and loved the “whacky and intricate designs” to show off her creativity.
“She prides herself on her steady hand and attention to detail, especially when it comes to the intricacy required for lace patterns on biscuits,” the bio continues. “Her favorite flavors are lemon, salted caramel and anything nutty.”
Hollyoak, from Bedfordshire, England, was once eradicated from the baking festival order all the way through Halloween Day, in line with People.
“I really don’t want to shed tears over it because it’s just been the most amazing experience really, one of the absolute best experiences of my life,” she mentioned on the future. “I’m really, really proud of what I’ve done. I’ve had fun — such fun.”
Hollyoak is survived through her 3 adolescents, two step-children and 4 grandchildren.
