Sharon "Sevn" Strickland, 24, will soon be seen on Peacock’s intense cooking competition Baking It trying to win $50,000 with her partner Kandyy. The pair will be one of eight home cooks who will try to impress four "judgemental" grandmothers with their dishes.Initially, Sevn wanted to have a career in cosmetology, but because of some family problems, Sharon decided not to join a beauty school 7 hours away from Kandyy and her ailing mother. After Kandyy's mother’s death, the couple was homeless for some time, often staying in the homes of her relatives.Sevn and Kandyy then decided to move from their respective hometowns to Charlotte in 2018, where Sven took on the job of selling makeup products. She hated her job, and after battling depression for many years, she decided to give up her job in 2020, and one day she grabbed a pan to make cupcakes.

With $25 in hand, she went to Walmart to buy “strawberries, some chocolate, some little sprinkle glitter things, some flowers, sugar.” She initially decided to make some specialized products for the cakes and then decided to focus on making the cakes themselves.Currently, her baking business, called The Cake Florist, is thriving and offers many products to its customers, like custom cakes, cupcakes, and macarons, which will also be seen on Baking It.Baking It contestant Sharon "Sevn" Strickland was born in Alabama View this post on Instagram Instagram PostSharon "Sevn" Strickland was born in Montgomery, Alabama, and lost her father when she was just 7 months old.
