Taylor Swift loves 'The Great British Bake Off'.
The 'Bad Blood' hitmaker is said to be a massive fan of the BBC show after "binge-watching" the new series and is particularly keen on TV chef and judge Mary Berry.
A source said: "She's obsessed. After recently binge-watching the last series she's now loving the current one, especially queen judge Mary Berry."
The 25-year-old superstar didn't get introduced to the British programme through her Scottish DJ Beau Calvin Harris, it appears 'Loyal' hitmaker Lorde is also hooked on the show and they even try out some of the recipes and speak to each other afterwards to see how they turned out, according to the source.
The insider told The Sun newspaper: "GBBO's giving her new ideas for recipes in the kitchen which she's already been trying out.
"Taylor and Lorde chat about the show on the phone, then compare and contrast their own attempts ... Both fancy themselves as potential star bakers."
It's not the first time the 'Blank Space' star has been associated with the British baking phenomenon.
Welsh band Goldie Lookin Chain recently channelled Taylor in a 'GBBO' music parody to 'Shake It Off', which was aired on YouTube in line with the start of the new series.
The lyrics of the rap include: "I stay up too late, making cupcakes for the fete" and "It is all about cakes, buns and sweeties. If you watch too much, you get Type 2 diabetes".

Chloe Madeley claims Judy Finnigan is "the most stubborn person in the world".
The 28-year-old fitness trainer revealed her mum - who is one half of presenting duo Richard & Judy along with her father, Richard Madeley, 59 - will never accept any help or advice, which meant it was very difficult when she recently tried to nurse her back to health after she sustained a stress fracture in her foot.
Asked if her mother took exercise advice following the injury, she said: "No - she doesn't listen to me. She doesn't listen to anyone. She's the most stubborn person in the world. If ever anything like this happens I'm like: 'Do you want me to help?' And she's like: 'Maybe later.' So I leave her to it."
However, the former 'Dancing on Ice' contestant admitted she is still very close to her mum, even though the 67-year-old presenter has become "obsessed" with Chloe's boyfriend, English rugby player James Haskell, aged 30.
Questioned on whether they get on with each other, Chloe told Bella magazine: "Oh my God, she's always trying to sit next to him and hangs on his every word.
"Mum is a bit obsessed with him - but it's really cute. She really likes him. He's a ladies' man and she's not exempt from his flirty ways! My dad finds it funny."

Stevi Ritchie "gets frightened" his fiancée will leave him for someone else.
The former 'The X Factor' contestant is convinced Chloe-Jasmine Whichello is out of his league and is constantly worried she will find someone "better" who she'd rather be with.
He said: "We're so happy. But, if I'm honest, I still get frightened that Chloe might run off with someone else.
"She is beautiful and I'm just an average, normal-looking guy. I do worry she'll find someone better. I've had insecurities in past relationships."
The 34-year-old star also admitted he was constantly emotional during his stint on 'The X Factor' because he had so much self-doubt.
He said: "Every weekend during the live shows I was so emotional because I couldn't believe the public were keeping me in. I kept thinking, 'I haven't got the best voice, why am I still in?'
"I know I came across as confident on the show but, behind closed doors, it was different."
But Stevi - who has seven-year-old daughter Summer from a past relationship - has vowed to try and change his mindset and have more faith in himself and his abilities.
Speaking to Closer magazine, he pledged: "I'm going to try. I'm looking forward to getting married and I'm doing well in my career at the moment. I don't want to let my insecurities jeopardise any of that, so I'm going to try to change my mindset."

Rashid Ebrahimkhan, manager of the Cambridge Nursing Home, where Stephen's sister Connie also resides, remembered the actor as still "quite funny".

Dame Maggie Smith is "surprised" she lived long enough to star in the final series of 'Downton Abbey'.
The 80-year-old actress - who plays Violet Crawley, Dowager Countess of Grantham in the hit ITV period drama - has joked that she never thought she'd make it to the end of the show.
Speaking at a screening of the first episode of the sixth and final series at The May Fair Hotel in London, she said: "I'm just surprised I have got to the end. Because just before this, which was six years ago, I had done about ten years with 'Harry Potter', so I felt very old indeed by the time I got to the Dowager.
"So I am just very surprised I got through it and I am still here."
The 'Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel' star also confessed she's never actually watched 'Downton' and is looking forward to putting her feet up and watching the box sets.
Asked what she has planned for the near future, Dame Maggie shared: "I'm going to be lying down, for quite some time.
"And the other thing I will be doing is watching it. I'll get the box sets and have a good look ... I certainly haven't watched anything that I've been in. I have seen some of it but I want to sit down and look at it all."
And despite admitting she's ready for some time off, the 'Harry Potter' actress added that she would definitely consider reprising her role in the 'Downton Abbey' movie, if it goes ahead.
She added: "A film? Yes. My wig has been around for a long time so I am not sure it will be around, but hopefully I will be. The wig is more tired than I am. But a film would be fun."

Kym Marsh and Matt Baker are reportedly back together.
The 'Coronation Street' star is believed to have rekindled her romance with her ex-boyfriend, only three months after she called time on her engagement to fiancé Dan Hooper.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Matt has been a great friend to Kym and, with the physical attraction always being there, things have just naturally developed into a relationship.
"At the moment, they're just enjoying each other's company and seeing how it develops."
The news appeared to have been confirmed by close pal Antony Cotton, who thanked the pair for their joint present for his 40th birthday recently.
He wrote: "And also to my girl @msm4rsh and my boy @mattwjbaker for their well jazzy treats. So lovely. I'm proper chufty badged up x (sic)"
Meanwhile, Kym recently admitted she was "back to her old self" following the split.
She said: "I'm feeling in a really good mood as work is going really well and all my children are happy. I feel like I'm getting back to my old self after what has been a pretty hard year.
"I've been spending more time with my parents, my kids, and my friends and it's just been brilliant for me to do that, as we're all so close - I'm in a really good place now."

Shane Warne is "begging producers" to star in 'Made in Chelsea'.
The cricketing legend is reportedly desperate to secure a cameo role in the E4 show but his suggestion didn't leave all the cast members enamoured.
A source told the Mail Online: "It's his favourite show and he can't get enough of the Chelsea drama. He's begged producers for a small part, and is desperate to make a cameo appearance.
"He's even offered to be an extra walking down the King's Road if it means he can be on the show. To say it raised a few eyebrows among the cast and crew would be an understatement."
And whilst Shane is believed to been keen in securing a part on the constructed reality show, the 45-year-old sportsman wasn't ready to accept a stint on 'I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here', turning down a six figure sum.
It was reported that Shane was seriously "tempted" by the offer but wanted to watch this series before considering if he would take part in the future.
Shane has also starred on the 'Real Housewives Of Melbourne' where he rubbed shoulders with the likes of Chyka Keebaugh, Gina Liano, Lydia Schiavello, Janet Roach, Jackie Gillies, Gamble Breaux and Pettifleur Berenger.

The 'Top Gear' host is putting a replica of the 1936 car, which was used in the 1968 movie, up for sale alongside another 12 cars from his collection.
It is thought the car could fetch around £350,000, with his rare 1966 Ferrari 275, another model being auctioned, expected to take well in excess of £2.5 million.
The 49-year-old presenter will also be auctioning off 140 other memorabilia, with proceeds being donated to the BBC's Children in Need charity.
Meanwhile, Chris reportedly told a pal he "wouldn't touch 'Top Gear' with a barge pole".
Noel Edmonds said: "It's interesting. I was a guest on Chris's boat at the Monaco Grand Prix and we had a chat. Chris said he wouldn't touch Top Gear with a barge pole. He said how tired he was, and he did look tired. And so I was stunned when within weeks he not only had shown interest but accepted the job. I just hope he's not taking on too much. He's a brilliant talent.
"He's also a mercurial talent in a Kenny Everett and Clarkson mould. He will need to be managed and supported otherwise he could just burn out and make some shocking mistake."
