Amos Lilley’s The Great British Baking Show Journey
Alongside his fellow bakers on this show, Amos Lilley embarked on a challenge to display his eclectic abilities when it comes to creating sweet treats. Hailing from Nottingham, his fascination with cooking and baking began quite early. Inspired by the magic his mother always created in the kitchen, this rising public personality also decided to try his luck when it came to baking. In other words, using his imagination and passion for cooking, he subsequently decided to experiment with various categories of bread, biscuits, and cakes.
Throughout his time in the cooking competition, Amos strived to maintain a remarkable performance. That’s why, during the Cake Week, he coalesced his skills, creativity, and adoration for theatre into his rendition. From using his imagination to create a visually appealing vertical layered cake to not giving up in the face of baking difficulties, Amos consistently displayed an ability to overcome challenges. While his ‘Free Willy’ inspired whale cake won viewers’ hearts, he still got a 2nd in the technical round. Eventually, this led to his early elimination from the competition, and fans have since been wondering what he’s up to these days.
