Matty Edgell was the winner of The Great British Baking Show ™ (Great British Bake Off ™) in Season 14 which aired at the end of 2023.
Matty is the type of baker who swats up on online patisserie videos before bed. No matter how good he gets, though, he strives to equal the impressiveness of the bake that first caught his imagination: a teddy-bear cake that his late nan made him for his fourth birthday. Now the family’s designated baker, he always has a list of cake requests for upcoming celebrations.
Matty describes his style as rustic but neat, and his flavour preferences as quite traditional – he particularly loves chocolate, citrus and nuts. Once his days in the tent are over, his next – and even bigger – challenge will be to make his own wedding cake, a special commission from his fiancée, Lara.
During Season 14 of The Great British Baking Show ™, Matty won Star Baker twice and earned a Hollywood Handshake for his sausage rolls.
