How to use StringFormat to format a text in XAML

Question

I'm trying to format display the following text using StringFormat in XAML, but I don't know where to enter the "Current Temperature: " string here:

<TextBlock Text="{Binding TempText, StringFormat={"Current Temperature: "}{0}°C}"

The final output should be:

Current Temperature: 10°C

The following code gives you the required output.

<TextBlock Text="{Binding TempText, StringFormat='Current Temperature: {0} &#186; C'}"/>
