Having to bake fiendishly difficult creations in a tent, while trying to avoid Sue accidentally elbowing your cake or a fellow contestant stealing your custard seems like it would breed tension and animosity between the bakers.
However, the opposite appears to have been the case this year in the tent, with all the bakers supporting each other. They see each other still even after the show ended.Â
Selasi gives Andrew rides on his motorbike and has traveled across the country to visit Val. Candice has been to visit Louise, and Andrew and Tom have fast become friends.Â
Selasi proved what great friends the bakers all are by hosting a viewing party on Wednesday night to which all contestants were invited.
And as they are all social-media savvy, there is plenty of evidence on social media. Look on, friends, and pretend you were there.Â
Selasi knows how to throw a party
Just look at all that pizza...
He even sent cars to pick them all up
Val practiced her moves for Ayia Napa
 And posted party outfit inspiration on Instagram
 It was a party full of happy friends
 And they were all really pleased for Candice
 They even had dinner together the evening before, and this is what Val said about it
"Having dinner with friends it is so natural and lovely to sit here and listen into their laughter and chatter".
 What a lovely group of friends!
 And it doesn't stop there - Candice and Jane are going on a baking road trip together, and it looks like the others are going to continue to see each other as well.
Maybe they should write a joint cook book!
We'll all miss the bakers of 2016.
