Who is Syabira from The Great British Bake Off?
Syabira Yusoff was born in Malaysia as one of seven children! She is a cardiovascular research assistant and moved to London in 2013 to study for her Ph.D.
She's now settled down happily with her boyfriend Bradley and to relax after a hard day in the lab she loves gaming. Her fave games are World War 2 simulations which she says have taught her a lot about leadership in the real world — perhaps we'll see some of those lessons come in handy in the tent!
Syabira only started baking in 2017 when she made a red velvet cake for friends. Now she's always in the kitchen and loves using Malaysian flavors in her bakes and adding a Malaysian twist to British classics. Her chicken rendang Cornish pasties are a particular favorite!
