Piella Bakewell is famous for being the star of commercials for Bake-O-Lite slimming bread. Piella Bakewell now lives in a luxurious mansion with her pet poodle Fluffles, which houses many mementos of her former glory. No longer as slim as she was, she intended to eliminate the bakers to get her revenge and to complete a baker's dozen, 13. She pretends to fall in love with bakers and murders them. She had attempted to kill Wallace however Gromit and Fluffles foiled this attempt. She then tried to escape in the Bake-O-Lite balloon, but she was too heavy and got eaten alive by crocodiles. She is the first ever female Wallace and Gromit villain, as well as the first female Wallace and Gromit character to die, as she is eaten alive by a crocodile off-screen. However, she is later shown as angel/ghost flying in the sky on a hot air balloon, in her old, skinnier, self. It is unknown wether this was Wallace's imagination, a breif moment symbolizing her redemption, or a mere cinematic effect.
