An Arnold couple who won Aldi’s ‘Next Big Thing’ on Channel 4 have been overwhelmed with orders and are “working around the clock” following their success. Colin Harrison and Paulette Griffiths once sold one of their Jamaican rum cakes - which are a family recipe and cost £11.99 - to the Princess of Wales and they have gone from strength to strength since.
They have been baking for up to 20 hours a day at some points but they are grateful for the attention they have received from across the world. Collin, 69 and Paulette, 59, both from Arnold, have been working together since 2015.
