He’s been criticised in recent weeks for the ‘tiny’ size of his dishes, and now one of Gordon Ramsay’s creations has been slammed for its appearance.

He posted a clip to Instagram showcasing the £9 sweet treat, which is served at Gordon’s York & Albany restaurant in Camden, London.

‘The perfect Sunday treat,’ wrote Gordon, while sharing a video of his dish being plated up this weekend.

Despite racking up more than 900,000 views, not everyone was a fan of the sweet creation, thought to be the York & Albany’s chocolate brownie, blackberry, dulce de leche, salted caramel dessert.

One person wrote: ‘Gordon it was perfect when the ice cream landed. But then something that looked like omelette vomit was squeezed on top … seriously.’

A second questioned: ‘What’s with the cat vomit on the top?’, while another said: ‘Think you’re running out of ideas. Looks a mess.’

‘What on earth was squirted on top at the end? Ruined it. Looks vile’, a fourth viewer asked.

But it wasn’t all criticism for the dessert, with Top Gear star Paddy McGuinness writing: ‘Yes, yes, yes’, while another person said: ‘Okay, now I want to go to his restaurant.’

MailOnline has contacted Gordon Ramsay’s representative for comment.

In the clip, a chef places a few slices of banana on a grey dish before putting a piece of chocolate brownie on top.

Next, a scoop of salted caramel ice cream is added along with a generous portion of cream and dusted with some cocoa powder.

Earlier this month, Gordon divided opinion after sharing a video of his chocolate tofu pudding, which was branded ‘perhaps the most unappetising and unappealing dessert ever’.

He posted a Facebook video of the £10 pudding, which is the signature dessert of his swanky Mayfair restaurant Lucky Cat, which specialises in Asian cuisine.

Elsewhere, a diner slammed Gordon Ramsay’s £20 pre-selected cheese board served at his restaurant in Chelsea as ‘insulting’ and ‘bland’

Gordon was also savaged online over his Sunday lunch (pictured), with diners branding it a ‘child’s portion’ and questioning where the rest of the trimmings are

The post quickly racked up 25,000 likes and 4,700 comments, with some saying they’d like to taste the dish, but others were left baffled by what looked like a ‘brown paper bag’ placed on top.

Another very impressed user penned: ‘First the poop in the middle, then covered by a layer of what looks like fat, and topped with a piece of pork crackling.’ 

Last month diners slammed the chef’s £20 pre-selected cheese board served at his restaurant in Chelsea, branding it ‘insulting’ and ‘bland’. 

Gordon Ramsay was also savaged online by a diner who visited one of his London restaurants and was left disappointed with the small steak and chips (pictured), costing £23

Weeks ago, he was also criticised online when he shared a photograph of his Sunday lunch on Instagram. 

While Gordon labelled the ‘sirloin of beef with all the trimmings’ ‘absolutely stunning’, several of his 9.8million followers were left unimpressed by the three baby carrots and roast potatoes offered – with one person asking: ‘Where’s the rest of it?

He also came under fire with both his £19 Full English Breakfast at the Savoy Grill and the ‘tiny’ £23 steak and over-salted chips at his York & Albany eatery in Camden, being criticised.
