Real Housewives of London series two is streaming now on Hayu.
Samuel Goldsmith sits down with Nessie Welschinger — cake designer, Real Housewives of London star and founder of Chelsea Cake Company — for a conversation that runs from royal commissions to kitchen catastrophes.
Nessie explains how she left a decade in banking to teach herself cake decorating from YouTube, coded her own website from a Coding for Dummies book, and ended up delivering Queen Elizabeth II's 90th birthday cake to the Tower of London just two weeks after giving birth. She talks about growing up between Singaporean and Egyptian kitchens — her grandmother chopping jute mallow for molokheya on her lap in front of the telly — and why the kitchen is her place of peace.
There's also Bake Off: The Professionals (and the carrot showpiece that went very wrong on camera), the reality of filming Real Housewives while raising three kids, a Christmas dinner featuring home-churned butter, a mandoline accident with a pot pie, and the durian story you won't forget.
