Here's everything you need to know about the Bake Off 2024 contestant.
As we head into the winter months, it can only mean one thing – The Great British Bake Off is coming to an end!
While viewers may no longer be able to tune into new episodes of the classic cooking series beyond tonight, the final episode of season 15 is set to be an exciting one as the remaining three bakers go head-to-head in exciting challenges.
One of those bakers is designer Christiaan – but who is he, and why has he decided to take part on the show?
Read on for everything you need to know about The Great British Bake Off 2024 contestant Christiaan.
Age: 33
Location: London
Job: Menswear designer
Christiaan is a 33-year-old menswear designer originally from a small town in The Netherlands, but now lives in London.
He studied fashion in Amsterdam before moving to the UK seven years ago to work for a leading fashion brand in London.
Passionate about visiting modern art galleries and stately homes, Christiaan is also an avid gardener and loves nurturing his vegetable patch.
For Christiaan, bread is where he finds his comfort as it reminds him of the age-shaped bakes his mum would make for him and his siblings on their birthdays.
Like for many of the bakers this year, Bake Off had always been a dream for Christiaan, a dream he never thought would come to reality.
"Never did I ever dream of actually making it to the tent," he explained. "I remember finishing the second audition round and thinking what an amazing experience it had been, thinking it would all end there.
"Little did I know a few months later I would be actually in the tent baking my (oven) gloves off!"
When Christiaan found out he had gotten through to the series, he "just screamed".
"I was home alone so I quickly called my boyfriend right after, which resulted in more screaming."
