Truth is truth, pure and unfiltered. False is deliberately made to deceive. Truth never changes, no matter how many want to change it. False always is a lie, meant to seduce.
Given that build-up, here are some videos from Demotivateur cakes (FaceBook site) They are about 4 minutes long, although one may be longer. Take the time to enjoy them. There will be some demos showing how some are created.
Therein lies the rub: Are you being deceived? Do you perceive what is real or what is not?
I don't know about you, but I am pulling the Kitchen Aide and recipes. Or maybe we will go to some great cake bakery. I think I saw one off Murrieta Hot Springs or Winchester Avenue. Money is no object.
I've seen these types of cakes on different cooking shows, and although they are amazing, I don't really get it. I wouldn't touch a cake that looked like a potato! And I don't enjoy fondant.
ReplyDeletefondant is a slab of sweet icing. I'd peel it off.
DeleteI would eat that potato!
Incredibly cool. I love it when the Great British Baking people get onto baking cakes that take my breath away. I will say I don't have the patience for it! Thanks for these!
ReplyDeleteThe Great British Baking Show!! Oh yes.
DeleteMy gr-daughters gave me their cookbook, and it is fun reading.
They can make cakes today that look like darn near anything. It's real Cake Art!
ReplyDeleteIf only they could be peserved.
DeleteSuch talent. Like those 3-D sidewalk drawings that appear so real.
ReplyDeleteThose 3D sidewalk drawing are so incredible.
DeleteCakes used to be sheet with a few flowers. Now they can be anything. Like another visitor, I don't like fondant, but these are truly out of sight. I've seen some made by kids (in contests) that are better than ones they sell in the stores.
ReplyDeleteChildren can be so creative.
DeleteWow! These are beyond belief. Of course, as long as it taste good is really all that matters.
ReplyDeleteThe cakes would have to be tasty!
DeleteI'd love to have the kind of skills to make cakes like this. I'd be very popular for children's parties. I admire those who can do such work.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what the cake be at a children's paty.
DeleteAh ... cake .... give me cake ... and cookies ... cake and cookies ... that's it. A well balanced diet.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Those are hidden somewhere in the food pyramid.
DeleteEating the dog's head first - awesome! That watermelon certainly looked real. Now that is a true talent to make those kind of cakes.
ReplyDeleteIt is something that takes years to put together.
DeleteIt takes an artist that is for sure. I could not eat one of these, I would have to KEEP it. I am amazed at the talent that WILL create a masterpiece to only last minutes! WOW. This beats the sand and ice sculptures.
ReplyDeleteGood stuff, this is a fist for me. WOW!
We sat amazed..
Sherry & jack
Same here. Could it be frozen, I wonder.
DeleteI love the realistic looking cakes.
ReplyDeleteThe purse cake is crazy amazing.
DeleteSome of the cakes are pretty amazing, it sure makes ours look plain.
ReplyDeleteSeeing how the cakes are assembled just amazes me.
DeleteHa ha...ok, with cakes this is kind of cool. It doesn't matter if it is real or not. But when we can't trust the real news, we have a problem.
ReplyDeleteTo say that black is white and the other way around is dangerous.
DeleteThen you have gray areas where truths and falsehoods aren't clear and simple
ReplyDeleteThat requires some real examination to determine which is which.
DeleteThose cakes look lovely, and i would certainly not have the patience to make them.
ReplyDeleteIt's sad that we have to be on our guard so much about what is real and what is not. Seeing is not necessarily believing any more, since pictures can be altered and the camera you think is giving you a picture of the truth is really only showing you what the camera person wants you to see and points the camera at. You never know what's off camera.
Thank you for this comment. Cake is awfully good. Truth is better.
DeleteThe talent and skill to make those... I'll stick to knitting. I don't know how they pull those cakes off.
ReplyDeleteI will stick writing.
DeleteCake making can be quite artistic.
ReplyDeleteMy efforts were for my kids. Sugary candle holders, blogs of blue icing, and all was well.
DeleteGLOBS not BLOGS Don't know where that came from.
ReplyDeleteI have seen some pretty convincing fake items. My boy was sharing some with me from YouTube one day as well. Amazing, isn't it? Have fun with the mixer. :)
