Gemma Collins left judge Gregg Wallace stunned as she accidentally served chillies in her festive cake instead of cranberries on Thursday's Celebrity MasterChef Christmas Cook-Off.
During the episode, the TOWIE star, 40, was joined by fellow stars Joe Swash, Les Dennis, Mica Paris and the Rev Richard Coles in the kitchen as they battled it out to win the Golden Whisk.
For the first challenge, Gemma had to make a Christmas sticky figgy pudding and she admitted that she had never sampled the dessert before.
