Watch a trailer for series six of the Great British Bake OffSONGBIRD Lulu didn’t exactly learn baking at the knee of her homely mother in a flour-dusted country kitchen.In a tenement flat in the east end of Glasgow, her busy mum turned out no-frills cooking in the scullery while the young Lulu spent all her pocket money on sweeties when she craved a bit of sugar.Not learning to bake was never a drawback – until she signed up for the Great Comic Relief Bake Off.She said: “I wasn’t brought up in a household where you’d smell baking from the kitchen every afternoon.
My mum did basic cooking and I learned how to do that. I’ve always had a sweet tooth. I’m Glaswegian so it comes with the territory.
But in our house it was all about getting money to buy sweeties, not making cakes.“When I agreed to do Bake Off one my friends emailed me, ‘Do you know how difficult this is?’.
