TV fans were less than impressed with the celebrities’ efforts on Cooking With The Stars comparing some efforts to vomit.
The ITV show sees professional chefs mentor eight celebrities so that may create delicious dishes to be judged by the professionals.

On Sunday’s episode, Love Island legend Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu was put up against author and interiors expert Kelly Hoppen when they both landed in the bottom two.
The women were tasked with creating chocolate eclairs alongside a strawberry and champagne granita, as their fellow celebrities and professionals watched on.
They only had 50 minutes to create their dishes and seemed like disaster from the outset when both stars failed to gradually add the eggs for the choux pastry which would go on to make the body of the chocolate eclairs.
Hosts Emma Willis and Tom Allen watched on in bemusement as Ekin added cream to her mixture, and the former explained her experience in the kitchen.
“I do know something about choux pastry, and the cream does not belong in there,” Emma told Tom.
Things only got worse for Ekin and Kelly as it became apparent their pastries did not seem up to scratch as they put them in the oven to cook.
For viewers watching at home, the scene was equally terrifying.
“That was like choosing between dog s*** and cat sick,” wrote one fan on X, formerly Twitter as the women’s dishes were served to the chefs for judgement.
Another added: “Jesus those ‘eclairs’ are the worst thing I’ve ever seen.”
And a third commented: “I don’t envy the chefs having to deal with those eclairs….”
Kelly ultimately won the cook-off after the judges tried both their efforts in blind tasting, which meant Ekin was sent packing.
She is the second celebrity to be booted off Cooking With The Stars after former Towie star Jess Wright was eliminated last week.
The current season is the show’s fifth season and the remaining celebrities in the competition include, Jack Osbourne, the eldest son of late rocker, Ozzy Osbourne and EastEnders alum, Natalie Cassidy.
Other stars competing this year include, ex-footballer Shaun Wright-Phillips, actor and comedian Hugh Dennis and presenter Jordan North.
