Biography

Strang was born in 1980 in Tahiti, French Polynesia to a French father and a Taiwanese mother. Being raised in Hong Kong, she moved with her family to India at age nine before starting to model and subsequently entering the film industry. Over the course of eight years she appeared in five different films and became a presenter on the food lifestyle show Market Trotter with food critic Chua Lam. Here she was convinced by Lam to pursue her dream of opening her own bakery.[3] After graduating from the Paris-based culinary school Le Cordon Bleu in 2010 she apprenticed at French bakery Ladurée and the Caprice at the Four Seasons Hotel in Hong Kong. A year later Strang opened her own pâtisserie petiteAmanda in the IFC serving a range of French pastries and desserts.[4][5]
