About the Author: I grew up in Italy, surrounded by a circle of passionate food lovers and professional bakers, in a setting where food was constantly the prime topic of conversation. My childhood and early years were so deeply infused with the vast gastronomic knowledge of my extended family that I considered it a second nature and never really a true skill, in the same way you would not consider “reading” a proper talent.So, I set out to get a suitably recognisable title and studied chemical engineering at Pisa University first, before moving to the UK in my mid-20s to do a doctorate on composite materials, which led me to an academic and industrial career, always in the research space. Funnily enough, as an engineer, I was used to ‘bake’ composite aeroplane wings and landing gears in very large ovens, before eventually deciding to side-step into more conventional (and certainly more flavoursome) baking, after being crowned first Italian champion of The Great British Bake Off in 2021.
