Who is Jürgen on The Great British Bake Off 2021?
THE Great British Bake Off 2021 is off to an intensive start and viewers have already decided who their favourite is.
Meet Jürgen, Bake Off 2021 contestant and accomplished musician...
Who is Jürgen on The Great British Bake Off 2021?
Originally from Germany’s Black Forest, Jürgen is a 56-year-old IT professional who has lived in Sussex since 2003.
His journey into baking wasn't straightforward as he found it challenging trying to incorporate traditional German recipes and ingredients.
Unable to find German bread in the UK he decided to bake his own, and started making a name for himself by baking celebration cakes and Jewish challah bread.
He approaches all of his bakes with scientific calculations to make sure they are exact for the perfect results.
Jurgen is also a musician and plays the trombone.
What has Jürgen said about The Great British Bake Off 2021?
When he received the call to join the show, he felt very anxious to accept the offer and questioned himself if he “really wants to do this?”
Thankfully he did, and is now on our screens becoming one of viewers favourites to watch.
Jürgen is hoping to wow the judges with his technical ability.
BAKE OFF LATEST
He was awarded the prestigious title of Star Baker in week one and week two.
In cake week he impressed judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith with his Black Forest mini rolls.
Although he slightly underwhelmed the judges on his malt loaf as the judges said it needed improvement, he managed to pull it out the bag with a showstopper of a large standing light overlooking a reading book.
In week two he came top in the technical with his sandwich biscuits and blew everyone away with his gingerbread windmill.
Judge Paul believes that he has the possibility of becoming the flavour king of the competition.
Who is Jürgen's wife and does he have children?
Jürgen is married to Sophia and lives in Brighton.
The couple also share a son Benjamin together who shares the same interest as his father in playing the tombstone.
They also have a pet rabbit Humphrey.
