What I'm into...


I ADORE fancy cakes! Anything with chocolate mousse filling, or bavarian creme filling, smooth creamy icing, beautiful icing roses... yumm!!!! I ADORE wedding cakes, and colorful cakes with creative decorations. (I think after my wedding cake dissappointment, I'm scarred for life! I had a picture of a cake similar to this that I wanted for my wedding, and the baker flat out said No. Just that... NO! She said since my wedding was very formal- black and silver, this type of cake wouldn't work. Well, I wasn't the one paying for it, and she was a friend of my in-laws, so I felt like I couldn't be all bridezilla about it. Oh well, my cake was ok, too. But since then I am obsessed with cakes!

I read the Cakewrecks blog every single day! I watch my favorite Charm city bakers on tv almost every night on Ace of Cakes. I just love it! However, I do wonder if they pipe nitrous oxide through their air vents, everyone is so unbelievable mellow and sedate. I guess they must pour all their personality into their amazing cakes. It is strange, though. Here's a little video about it: http://www.foodnetwork.com/videos/vivid-visionary/18408.html

I saw a show on another channel the other night, and talk about night and day difference from Ace of Cakes. Cake Boss has so much drama and emotion- it gives me a headache just to watch! I ask you, where would you rather work? Or maybe you like drama.



Now I want to go make a fancy cake! I think Heaven will definitely have cake, don't you?

I agree with it all. Cake = VERY yes. I was even inspired by Ace of Cakes recently to try decorating some cupcakes (up on facebook).

(And thanks again for making my wedding cake so gorgeous and perfect and absolutely what I wanted!)
