Before Dan and his wife bought their first home, they lived with his in-laws, during which time his mother-in-law taught him how to make perfect shortcrust pastry. Since then, his passion for baking has evolved.
Dan loves a baking challenge and likes to find the hardest bake in his many (more than 300!) cook books. When he isn't baking, he loves to play football with his two sons or forage for edible treats in the countryside near his home.
