Bakery Development Manager at Matthews Cotswold Flour, Sophie Carey joins Elaine in her home kitchen to bake as well as talk about all things baking, having achieved so much since leaving university as the top student just a few short years ago and becoming a Freeman of the Worshipful Company of Bakers, one of the City of London’s historic livery companies which traces its origins back to medieval times. But she does so much more, as she tells Elaine while preparing and baking two delicious recipes – the French delicacy chouquettes and an upside down salted honey pecan cake. Sophie has a top tip and advice for home bakers at every stage of the process drawn from her seemingly inexhaustible knowledge of baking, recipes, flour, ingredients and how to use them.
