Career
Zissman took her first job at an estate agent on Saturdays at 16 to pay the upkeep costs for a horse her parents bought for her. One of her first post-school jobs was at Electronic Data Systems, but she later stated that she decided to go into business because she disliked being told what to do.
She is based in St Albans, Hertfordshire, and she had her own baking website and eBay electronics business. Her cupcake shop – Dixie’s Cupcakery, named after her daughter, is now closed. Although she claimed on several occasions that these three businesses have a net worth of £1.5 million, The Independent valued the three businesses, all trading names of Boutique Trading Ltd of which Zissman is listed as director and company secretary, at £194. They also noted that the eBay electronics store she owned was a “one-stop shop for several sellers, including electronics, baking and beauty products”.

In November 2013 she launched her business, named Bakers Toolkit, at the Cake International Show. Earlier, there had been some debate about whether the name should include an apostrophe. She joined the thirteenth series of Celebrity Big Brother on 3 January 2014. She finished fourth overall behind Jim Davidson, Dappy and Ollie Locke. Zissman revealed she received a six-figure sum for her stint on the show. She also regularly appears on This Morning and Good Morning Britain as a guest to debate current new stories.

Personal Quotes
I have the energy of a Duracell bunny, sex appeal of Jessica Rabbit and a brain like Einstein.
I like to go out and meet people. I’m not the most monogamous person. There is nothing wrong with being a woman who enjoys sex or having more than the average number of sexual partners. I have a good sex life and I am having fun with discreet people – but I have to be careful about who I am having sex with.
Sex is something to be explored. It really good. It feels nice. If you want to go to a sex party and have a massive gangbang, then cool.
