If you’re ever short of cake inspiration, you’ve come to the right place. A moving, flashing robot cake, a seven foot tall solar system and a talking frog cake.. Buddy Valastro and his big, loud Italian family have attempted every type of novelty cake you could think of!
If you happen to be a part of a large Italian family, or even if you’ve watched the movie ‘My Big Fat Greek Wedding’, then you’ll definitely appreciate the hilarious dynamics of Buddy, his four sisters and three brothers-in-law. That’s correct - they ALL work in the bakery. Together. I have no idea how they do it. There is yelling, screaming and sometimes there are tears (and lots of dropped cakes). But they manage to make it work and create some of the most amazing, extravagant cakes I’ve ever seen (I’m talking a wedding cake with a built in bird cage and real live doves. Inside the cake. Seriously).
What I love most about this DVD is the bonus features, including tutorials on basic to advanced level cake decorating. Who needs an expensive, overpriced two day cake decorating course when you could just watch these tutorials!
And thanks to the wonderful gals at Adele Feletto I’ve got FIVE copies of Cake Boss, Season 2 on DVD to GIVEAWAY!
We all like free stuff, yeah? Thought so. OK, this is how it works..

ReplyDeleteBlack sesame, chestnut, and pistachios. Om nom nom!
ReplyDeleteBACON! Cause bacon and caramel is awesome, and I love salty and sweet combinations. =)
ReplyDeleteOh I watch this whenever I travel because I don't get cable! It's a hilarious show. As for his cakes, some of them are hilarious!
ReplyDeleteHmmm.. well the obvious solution to my indecision is several layers!
ReplyDeleteSo, the first layer would be Chocolate hazelnut, with a layer of ganache on top... second layer is raspberry, with a layer of jam on it... third is white chocolate coconut, spread with a white chocolate ganache, and finally on top is a macaron! :)
I love Cake Boss, I used to watch it on pay TV but we got it cut off so I've been missing it. It'd be awesome if I won it :)

I love cake boss, I think my favourite episode was the bachelorette cake with the strippers! As for my own cakes, if it were possible I think that there are two types of cakes I would want.
ReplyDelete1. floral themed, layers of rose, violet and honeysuckle (and perhaps daisy because they look so pretty and would HAVE to taste nice right?) with chocolate ganache so that it would be like a giant rose/violet creme chocolate but in cake form
2. would be where I bust out the lolly flavours with alternating layers of strawberries and cream with musk flavoured buttercream. Yummo!
ahh so many possibilities!
ReplyDeletewell atm, im craving for a apricot, hazelnut and coffee combo!! :)
Cookies and Cream
ReplyDeleteYUM :)
