Carina was a 30 year old co-owner with her sister Rachelle of Dough Bakehouse in South London when she became one of the candidates on The Apprentice in 2019.
Carina's father Carlo had owned a previous incarnation of the artisan bakery, which had burnt down. It opened in February 2018 in Herne Hill.
When Carina Lepore entered The Apprentice, she said: "I'm about 5 foot 1 inch tall - I'm like a pocket rocket, you don't really want to mess with me." In 2019, she hoped that she would win The Apprentice and get £250,000 of dough from Lord Sugar. Carina ended up winning The Apprentice, beating Scarlett Allen- Horton in the final.
Carina still manages the day-to-day running of the independent bakery. Carina's father Carlo freshly bakes all the products on a site every morning, including the delicious new vegan range. With exciting plans to open up several new sites this year and next, Dough Bakehouse is expanding quickly due to customer demand.
