Danni becomes first contestant to leave Bake Off
Danni said they enjoyed the technical challenges, which were "like a puzzle"
An HGV service administrator from Dorset has become the first person to leave this year's Great British Bake Off.
Danni was eliminated from the Channel 4 TV series during biscuit week after being told by judge Paul Hollywood their cookies were "powdery".
During the episode, which aired on Tuesday, Danni said they had been unable to taste the cookies because the ingredients included cream and butter and they were vegan.
They said competing on Bake Off gave them "some of the best advice about how to improve something that I love".
Speaking to BBC Radio Solent's Dorset Breakfast show, they said: "It was absolutely fantastic, on and off camera. I was just hyped to be there.
"Some of my favourite parts were the technicals which I was consistently not great on doing but I loved doing them so much... It's like a puzzle."
Reflecting on their time in the tent, Danni said: "I've never been the best with making friends.
"I'm quite an eccentric person and quite a Marmite person.
"Going into it, I wasn't expecting to make friends. I wasn't expecting there to be so many lovely, lovely people.
