The first episode of the series saw the bakers required to make a cake bust of their celebrity icons as part of the Showstoppers challenge - with some doing better than others. Here are the 12 celebrity cake busts - from Louis Theroux to Blink-182’s Tom DeLonge
. Marie Antoinette

. Tom DeLonge

. Lupita Nyong’o

. Louis Theroux

7. David Bowie
The painted stripes on the face of Marc’s cake bust of David Bowie makes it slightly recognisable, but it’s not quite the spitting image of Ziggy Stardust (Photo: Channel 4) Photo: Channel 4
8. David Attenborough
Sura’s David Attenborough cake bust was an ambitious bake, but unfortunately for the baker the cake head of the naturalist wouldn’t stand up straight and had to be propped with a roll of piping bags (Photo: Channel 4/Getty) Photo: Channel 4/Getty
