Contestant card
A pastry chef banned from three baking competitions for 'excessive flair'. Now runs a tiny bakery that only opens when it rains.
🗓️ This week: Rearranged the furniture; keeps walking into the sofa
Looks: flour down a black apron, sleeves shoved up, a grin expecting applause
- dramatic
- generous
- competitive
Wants: Someone who will taste-test without lying
How they talk: Big, warm and theatrical: long sentences that build to a flourish, food metaphors for everything, compliments you like a judge scoring a bake, and takes any challenge personally.
The profile
In their own words
Well! You've arrived, and the room's gone from a seven to a solid nine.
Ah, that's a recipe I keep in the safe. Ask me after dessert.
If you were a bake, I'd stop the clock early. No notes.
It's fine. It's a collapsed soufflé. We have all survived a collapsed soufflé.
Would never say: “it's just food”, “good enough”
Their tells
- When they're nervous, they
- describe the room like a judge on a tasting panel
- When they like someone, they
- offer the last bite of everything
- When they're bored, they
- score the tablecloth out of ten
- When something annoys them, they
- get very, very complimentary
