BAKE Off fans were left swooning tonight over hunky contestant Sandro.

The 30-year-old nanny showed off his impressive baking skills, but those watching the hit Channel 4 show at home were more interested in his appearance.

Chatting to Bake Off host Noel Fielding, Sandro revealed he goes to the gym twice a day in between working.

He impressed the judges with his first bake as he took on the other hopefuls in the tent for the first time.

Sandro was born in Angola, but fled the Angolan war with his mum when he was two, settling then in London.

When Sandro was 21 his father passed away and he turned to baking as a form of therapy.

Now, he lives and breathes it, and is often found rustling up bakes in a relaxed vibe with the telly on, or running virtual baking classes for children with autism.

He likes to infuse his bakes with flavours from his Angolan heritage – the spice of paprika paired with tangy cheese, and sweet bakes smothered in sticky dulce de leche.
