Recognisable for her stint on the Great British Bake Off in 2014, appearing as the youngest contestant ever at the age of 17, Martha Collison's interest in the skill never waned and she continued to experiment in the kitchen.

Her ability, remarkable for her age, was recognised by a large supermarket chain who reached out to the budding chef to become their new columnist in Waitrose Weekend. Collison, 18, is now affording readers the opportunity to peruse her original recipes, giving them to chance to perfect their red velvet cakes and banish the soul-destroying soggy bottom.
