Don't feel pressured into taking a creative/ practical subject. One of my GCSE options was food tech; I absolutely regretted taking it, I wished I took history instead. The main reason why I took food tech was because I thought it would be easy going and chill. It ironically turned out to be my most stressful GCSE subject due to the extreme volume of coursework required (first year: 8,000 word coursework project, 2nd year: over 15,000 project which I had to write in a month because i had a terrible teacher who kept on putting off the practical exam).
I did the A*-G WJEC course so it might be different so don't be too deterred. Bottom line is that practical subjects aren't necessary in GCSE and I would have actually personally benefited from taking something like history instead. GCSE options don't matter like A-levels do so don't worry, do what you want to do.
