Great British Bake Off viewers were left baffled on Tuesday night when one of Janusz’s spring rolls appeared to go missing during the technical challenge.
During pastry week, the bakers had to make eight spring rolls in an hour and 20 minutes – but as judges Prue Leith and Paul Hollywood came to Janusz’s offering they realised there were only seven.
Along with the fans watching at home, Janusz was immediately confused, having thought he’d made the right amount, as Paul questioned: ‘Where’s the eighth?’
Mystery in the kitchen: Great British Bake Off viewers were left baffled on Tuesday night when one of Janusz’s spring rolls appeared to go missing during the technical challenge
Still puzzled, Janusz answered: ‘Deep fried eight, and seven ended up on the plate. I don’t know what happened.’
Viewers were equally as bewildered, with one writing on Twitter: ‘I will not rest till I find out what happened to Janusz’s 8th spring roll!’
Another commented: ‘everyone shut up where’s Janusz’s missing spring roll!’, while another said: ‘ Since Janusz’s spring roll went missing earlier, we honestly can’t stop thinking about it. Did someone eat it? Did he eat it? Can he not count? We’re gonna be up all night!’

Weird: Along with the fans watching at home, Janusz was immediately confused, having thought he’d made the right amount, as Paul questioned: ‘Where’s the eighth?’
The budding baker, 29, fought back tears as judges Paul and Prue decided she would be going home during pastry week.
In a piece to camera shortly afterwards, Maxi admitted she’d had a ‘bad week’ and ‘knew’ she was facing the chop.
She said: ‘I can’t believe it. I had a bad, bad week. I knew it. I knew it was me. I knew it was coming, but I was hoping my showstopper would have saved me.
Confusion: Still puzzled, Janusz answered: ‘Deep fried eight, and seven ended up on the plate. I don’t know what happened!’

‘It’s really sad to go but I’m happy and I’m proud that I made it this far.’
Her fellow contestants and fans alike seemed shock that she was sent home during the quarter finals.
Her co-stars rushed to comfort her after the shock news.
One viewer tweeted afterwards: ‘You will be missed Maxy, I was convinced you’d be in the final but you’ve done so well to get this far.’
The result: Janusz ultimately placed in second, behind winner Sandro in the technical challenge
A second wrote: What?!!! Maxy deserves to win this season! I cannot believe this!’ while a third added: ‘Maxy, you were brilliant ❤️.’
In a handwritten note shared to GBBO’s Twitter, Maxy wrote: ‘Still finding it hard to believe that I actually made it to the tent.
‘Having gotten so far in the competition, I would have obviously loved to have made it to the finals, however am super proud of how far I managed to come.
‘I really stepped out of my comfort zone applying for Bake Off, and am honestly so glad I did!

‘Got to meet Dame Prue, Paul, Noel and Matt, and had the best time of my life. If you are considering to apply, I suggest that you do so because you could be here next year.
‘Along the way, I have grown and become more confident as a person, gained new friends and left the tent a better baker.
‘Thank you to all that have supported me, love you all. To the team, you are amazing, thank you for making this such a lovely experience. Lots of love, your Quarter Finalist.’
Sandro, Abdul, Janusz and Syabira remain in the competition.
