So today I was watching this show on the food network (my younger sisters favorite tv station) and it was called "Ace of Cakes." In this show, a Baltimore cake shop designs over the top cakes for different events. In one of the episodes I watched, they made a cake reflecting the tea party scene from "Alice in Wonderland." It was probably the coolest cake I had ever seen. These people are so playful and creative. They recreated the characters so well, I was incredibly impressed. It took me back to my childhood and all of the birthday cakes I had, none of which even remotely compared to this masterpiece. I secretly wish that my parents had tried to order a cake after one of my favorite books. And I'm not talking about how they put a few plastic "Winnie the Pooh" characters, or Disney Princesses, on top of the cake. I'm talking a full fledged scene from the moive (though I have no idea how much these cakes cost, I assume it is a lot). Anyways, I thought the show was so cool and I wish one day (hopefully my wedding day), I can have a cake that ornate. The picture to the left is not the exact cake I saw them make, but it is still pretty cool. Saturday, February 2, 2008

I love ACE OF CAKES I think it's the best show ever, its my favorite show, and Duff is awesome!!! I am going to be going to culinary school this full majoring in Baking & Pastry Arts, And I can't wait I want to have a Bakery some day, and I'm going to be just like Duff goldmen. Haha
Their cakes are amazing, I agree. They have a minimum price of $1000 for each cake. If they have to drive to deliver it they don't go further than 6 or 8 hours from Baltimore,MD, and it costs around $150-$175 an hour. I wish I would of had the money to get my wedding cake from them. They are beautiful!!
