One of the most popular shows in the UK has been The Great British Bake Off, a baking competition that has aired since 2010, which gives contestants challenges each week, leading to the selection of the best amateur baker among the lot. Contestants come from all professional backgrounds. Last year, a bright young Derby-based man by the name of Andrew Smyth won the hearts of many with his contagious smile, positive attitude, and engineering-inspired bakes. You see, when Smyth isn’t baking up a storm in the kitchen, he’s an aerospace engineer for Rolls-Royce.
What better place to showcase the intersection of baking and engineering than Maker Faire? On April 1 and 2, Smyth will be a headlining maker at the seventh annual Maker Faire UK, taking place at the Life Science Centre in Newcastle upon Tyne. We spoke with Smyth to learn how he got started, what inspires him, and what Maker Faire UK attendees can expect to see from him.
