Who is Bake Off's Mark?

Mark Lutton, by day, is a project manager from Liverpool.

He lives there with his wife, Laura.

After having some recipes under his belt when he first took up baking, he began making multi-tiered wedding cakes - and he proved he was good at centrepiece showstoppers with his tiered white choc cake in week four.

His heritage is Irish, and he likes to bring traditional Irish flavours into his bakes.

He said: "It felt like a very long wait, from finding out I was one of the 12 bakers to the moment when I first walked into the tent.

"Honestly, I didn’t think it was going to happen! I was filled with nerves and excitement in the lead up.
