Meet the Bakers: Claire

Claire lives in Cheshire, where she works as a Speech and Language Therapist. Claire has been baking since she was 11 years old as both her mum and grandmother were wedding cake decorators and her father was a chef, and they all taught her crucial techniques which should come in handy now. Claire used to be a chaotic baker but since marrying her husband, Carl, a chemist, his precision work has rubbed off on her in the kitchen. Claire is known for her unorthodox approach to slimming clubs — bringing along cakes for her fellow slimmers.
