E33 - Sandro Farmhouse - A Great British Bake off finalist tells us what it's really like in the big tent!
Sandro Framhouse, here’s a guy with some serious drive and motivation. Coming to England a long time ago with nothing, he grew up against many factors working against his chance to succeed but yet found a way through it all.
Sandro, has baked for a while now, but his determination comes from watching how hard it was for his mother when they first moved to England. It’s a consistent theme with Sandro. Overcoming challenges, getting to his vision. He puts a picture in his head of what he wants to achieve and then he goes after it.
He’s the first bake-off contestant we’ve had on the podcast and I’m really glad we got the chance to sit down with him. Bake-off has literally changed his life and how he has managed that change is interesting. Sandro is a breath of fresh air to speak with and we really enjoyed chatting with him. So let’s get to Sandro’s baking journey. Enjoy.

E32 - Yolanda Gampp - This is a story of AMBITION! Even after hearing "no" a hundred times, she NEVER gave up!
Yolanda Gampp. A mega-star in the world of novelty cakes. But her rise to this level was a genuine rollercoaster to get to this point. There are so many highs, and yet various lows, even to this very day.
What she, and her business partners Connie and Jocelyn have built is an incredible brand. But it only came after being told no, no., no, and no!
They started their YouTube channel “How to Cake it” was back in 2015! And then the real work began. It’s barely stopped since and this baking journey is going to highlight to you all that as you get bigger, it doesn’t always get easier.
New heights bring new challenges but Yolanda and her team kept adapting, kept consistent, and kept pushing the boundaries. This episode is a must listen! Take your time with this one and we really hope you find it inspiring and educational.
