We send our deepest condolences to family and friends.<\/p>\n

“Former Great British Bake Off finalist Luis Troyano, who starred in series five of the show in 2014, has died from oesophageal cancer at the age of 48.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“Sadly, my lovely client lost his brave fight against oesophageal cancer last week,”\u00a0tweeted his agent<\/a>\u00a0Anne Kibel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“A fantastic man with a love of baking that saw him get to the finals of GBBO, write a wonderful book, Bake It Great, and do so much more,” she added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

After the show, Troyano said Bake Off had “totally changed my life”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“As well as being given the opportunity to write a book, I now also bake for a living, which is simply amazing. As far as baking goes, I can certainly bake a lot faster now than before the GBBO,” he told Food and Drinks Guide.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Following his stint on Bake Off, Troyano made appearances on BBC Good Food and BBC Breakfast shows. He released a book called Bake it Great in 2015.” – BBC News<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
