Cake Shows

We have all watched one of the many cake show reality series that are on now. The new found interest in this side of cake artistry is finally getting the attention it deserves, but I think it is making it very hard on the average bakery and cake artist. People see these shows and watch as a spectacular masterpiece of cake art become to be in the sum total of an hour. The missing link is that the audience is not seeing the other 30employees that are working behind the scenes to make this happen, without a hitch. Nor do most realize that this has taken a week of filming to make happen and that it has been edited to fit in a one hour time slot. I have to give a nod to "fabulous Cakes", they are showing a more realistic side to this as well as hang g the price tag upon the art. As a cake decorator you always seem to get the call wanting a cake that will take days to complete and the customer wants to pay little more than they can get a basic sheet cake at the local grocery store. Once the 2sides of the story meet it will make it so much easy for all decorators and artist alike. HAPPY CAKING!!
