Samba Schutte rose to prominence in fandom after playing Roach in Our Flag Means Death. Schutte has been actively involved in the fandom since the show aired, sharing behind-the-scenes content on Instagram and Twitter and engaging with fans. Fans began baking orange cakes to show their support for the show, in reference to a scene where Roach mentions Stede Bonnet having him bake a cake using 40 oranges. After OFMD was renewed for a second season, Schutte counted 765 total cakes up to that point.[1]

A fan cookbook named Roach's Delights was inspired by Schutte's engagement with the fandom.
