A Future Cake Decorator

Have you ever seen a cake so pretty, so cool, or so incredibly amazing that you could not bring yourself to eat it? I have! Ok, not in person, but thanks to TiVo I get to see amazing cake everyday! I have become addicted to the show Ace of Cakes. For anyone who has never seen nor heard of this show, it is a cooking show that takes place in Baltimore, MD. The show is all about Duff, this amazing cake decorator and his staff. They make cakes that are "bigger, better, and badder". There creations are amazing. It is just a bunch of friends who love to bake and the things they come up with are some of the most amazing cakes I have ever seen. Their designs cover everything from
classic and elegant
with a modern twist

totally out of this world

The unbelievable

and

The near impossible

Except for the Hogwarts castle, every single one of these cakes is edible. (They did not make castle edible because they had to drive the cake from Maryland to LA for the Harry Potter Premiere party, and the people that hired them did not want people to be able to eat it.) But, castle is made out of Styrofoam and covered in fondant. It is amazing! AND, all of the surrounding is made of cake! This show is crazy! It is my new obsession and it has now become my goal to make cakes like these! One day, you are going to look me up in the yellow pages and I am going to own a bakery and we will make cakes just like these!
