CANDICE BROWN

Candice Brown rose to fame as the winner of The Great British Bake Off 2016 and has since built a dynamic career as a chef, author, and media personality.

 

In her life before Bake Off, Candice was a secondary school teacher with a particular responsibility for the pastoral care and SEN provision within the school. 

Life changed immeasurably for Candice following her victory on Bake Off with the recognition that she gained on the show giving her the opportunity to explore new and exciting avenues in food. In the years since the show, she spent six years as a columnist for The Sunday Times, writing in the magazine and The Dish, has baked on This Morning and Ainsley's World Cup Flavours and has appeared as a panellist on Loose Women. 

She has worked with a vast array of brands on PR and social media campaigns including Breville, Gozney, Canderel, Holland and Barrett, and Now TV. She has been featured in Hello and OK! magazines and has been an ambassador for Avon Cosmetics. She is also a regular at food festivals making frequent appearances at Pub in the Park, CarFest and The Big Feastival. 

She is the proud owner, chef, and landlady of The Green Man in Eversholt, and co-owner and chef of the recently opened Margo's, a deli and restaurant in Woburn - both ventures run alongside her brother Ben. During her spare time, you can find Candice walking her beloved dogs Severus, Albus and Sybil, in the stands at Tottenham or the rugby with her dad or trekking both in the UK and abroad on behalf of CoppaFeel.
