Just days after Prue Leith announced her exit from “The Great British Bake Off,” viewers now know who will be stepping into her colorful shoes on the show.

On Jan. 26, the official Instagram account for the baking show revealed that renowned cook and food writer Nigella Lawson will soon join the show as a judge.

“We’re delighted to announce that Nigella Lawson is joining The Great British Bake Off as our new judge!” the announcement read.

The post also included a statement from Lawson, who expressed her excitement over her new role.

“I’m uncharacteristically rather lost for words right now! Of course it’s daunting to be following in the footsteps of Prue Leith and Mary Berry before her, great dames both, but I’m also bubbling with excitement,” she wrote.

Lawson described the baking show as a “National Treasure” and noted that it was a “huge honour to be entrusted with it.”

“I’m just thrilled to be joining the team and all the new bakers to come, I wish the marvellous Prue all the best, and am giddily grateful for the opportunity!” Lawson concluded.

Lawson took to the comments section to reiterate her joy, writing, “Thank you, thank you, thank you — I can’t wait to enter the Tent of Dreams!”

Leith also weighed in, writing, “I was so hoping it would be Nigella! Brilliant choice 🙌.”

In a press release announcing Lawson’s appointment as a judge, Leith also applauded the show’s decision, writing, “I’m thrilled that Nigella is to experience brilliant Bake Off. She’s sassy, fun and she knows her onions — and her croissants, cake and crumble.”

On Jan. 21, the 86-year-old restaurateur announced she was stepping down as a judge of the show, a role she held for nine seasons.

“Bake Off has been a fabulous part of my life for the last nine years, I have genuinely loved it and I’m sure I’ll miss working with my fellow judge Paul, Alison and Noel and the teams at Love Productions and Channel 4,” she wrote. “But now feels like the right time to step back (I’m 86 for goodness sake!), there’s so much I’d like to do, not least spend summers enjoying my garden.”
