Critical Review Source 3


“Ace of Cakes” is a television show on the food network. In the show are a group of friends who work together decorating cakes. They are not your typical cake decorators though; the friends are very creative and make one-of-a-kind cakes. During one particular show they made a wedding cake replicated the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument. Birthday cakes and special occasions are the themes of most of the cakes they make. The experts often use PCB pipes for unique designs.

I absolutely love to watch this show because of how creative the decorators are.  I have learned many techniques and tips from the show as well. One tip I learned was that if you use fondant on the cake then make sure the room temperature is below 75 degrees. If not then the fondant will crack making it difficult use which is very time consuming.  I have also learned that I need to have fun when decorating instead of getting stressed out because stressing will only make matters worse.
