Fun fact: A local bakery has a full “ugly cake” section where they sell chunks/slices or full failed cakes and experiments that are still yummy. They also have a Cake E.R. where they have a chef in scrubs that will help you fix any messed up home cakes. You bring it in, she’ll check that it’s cooked and safe to eat at least, and if it’s safe and tasty she’ll help you rescue and decorate it to save your party or event. I always wondered if they got the idea from you! For those interested, it’s a cool place in Trinity FL and I originally found it looking for a fancy cupcake my niece wanted for her birthday, we checked everywhere and found them by chance when we stopped at a pet store! Haha We got some slices of a messed up Minecraft cake and a few mini cupcakes to go. That trip got my niece super into baking and now she bakes almost daily! They do cake rescues, classes and cook-a-longs, as well as custom orders and sell cool fondant and sugar figures and sculptures you can use in your own cakes. I bought a small figure of my dog once... tasted bad, but it was adorable! I really wish more shops were as interactive and community focused as they are. It’s a really fun experience going in and hanging out, looking around and they always have experiments running or classes going that have tons of free samples and tastings.. you might come in to just look and someone will be like “Hey! Wanna try some yogurt filled muffins?!” Or something random like that... lol it’s almost always delicious... almost... :o

@@TheSimplyCooking It does, you just have to make sure you grease the tin properly otherwise the chocolate will set connected to the tin. You can test out but turning the tin over once the chocolate is set and if the chocolate falls off, you can tell it will work and just put it back in place.
I don’t think greasing would help. It would help with hard caramel but chocolate already is fat based and adding more oil would just dissolve on it. Just chocolate should be fine since it hardens when it cools down just like when using molds to make chocolate in hollow shapes.
@@HowToCookThat 0:47 - First cake; in the shape of Thomas the Train, seems to be made of chocolate. This probably wasn't reused, as you put the coloured chocolate layer on top. 5:08 - (Island Cake) First layer of (presumabl chocolate) cake, flat and circular. 5:14 - (Island cake) Broken parts of chocolate cake that was used to make the shape of the rocky island. *TSUNAMI CAKES TRIAL* 10:44 - Two layers of cake where you demonstrate what happens when you use heavily whipped cream. 11:22 - Two layers of cake for demonstrating what happens when you used 2 cups of less whipped cream. 11:36 - Two layers of vanilla cake (I noticed there is something in between the cakes, like a golden / caramel glaze) where three cups of cream, along with edible silver decorations, are used. 12:04 - Two layers of vanilla cake, where you use ganache, and it runs down between the cake and the acetate. 12:06: Frosted cake, appears to be of two layers + Green ganache is used. 12:40 - Frosted cake, where two cups of pink ganache is used. 13:26 - One cup of runnier pink ganache. I think this is where you reused the cake from 12:06 :D Given that it's pretty greenish. 13:38 - Medium sized cake where you used 1 and a half cups of runny purple ganache. Given that the cake was already quite pink, I think it's the same cake from 12:40! 13:48 - White cake, with 1 and a half cup of cyan ganache. I don't think this cake is reused.
I'm not sure I would enjoy the combination of flavor and especially texture that would come from eating cake and jello at the same time. No denying that it looks amazing though.
I know that 1+ year later, the chance of Ann seeing this comment is low... but still... for everyone else. I wanted to make a jelly cake, but way always too afraid. I watching your rescue several times and felt like I could give it a go. For the most part, I didn't fail. The cakes tasted amazing. My icing and custard were spot on. I had to make the jelly in two batches and the first was clear, but didn't set (forgot to reheat it, silly mistake). The second was a bit cloudy and did set. So, I rescued my cake by removing the bottom layer of jelly and putting white icing around the bottom of the cake. It turned my Antarctic Dream jelly cake into a Antarctic Cloud jelly cake. It became the continent sitting in ice on top of a cloud. I even made lemon custard icebergs. I claimed my icing mistakes on the jelly were intentional smaller pieces of ice floating on and in the water. I still need to work on my decorating and icing skills, but that is just practice. Ann, Thank you for giving me the tips to make my cake a success and for showing us how to rescue cakes that seem like a failure, when they really aren't. We just need practice and a bit of creativitiy. Cheers to everyone! Give it a go. It is a fun little challenge.
I am honestly so impressed by how many experiments you do - at least you have plenty of people around that will be happy to do their part of the clean up 😂

I love how Ann is like "oh I've never tried this before" and then Thomas turned out looking better than the actual cartoon of the train xD And that island cake blows my mind every time I see someone make it. I think if I had one in person I wouldn't be able to bring myself to eat it, it's so pretty o_o
I think the "fail" with too thick ganache that slowly went partway down the cake looked great. Do it ahead of time instead of at the table. The green color looked like slime lol reminds me of Nickelodeon green slime they used to dump on people's heads.
Here is a list of booksellers where you can pre-order my cookbook: 💖 bit.ly/ARcookbook 📖📘 FAQ: measurements in the book are in grams and ounces and cups (everyone is looked after 😀)
The island cake is the most beautiful one i've ever seen. And the tips, really hands-on! She's so generous sharing all of these precious info for free.
Buying the book is about more than wanting to learn to cook; it's also about wanting to support Ms. Reardon so that she can do what she loves, film herself doing what she loves, and then post those videos so we can watch her doing what she loves while we boil eggs
I love that not only is Ann extremely talented with baking, she’s also an amazing artist and uses that skill with her baking. I love the small detail of making a coral reef-like sea bed, and her wanting the rocks to look more like rocks. Small details are some of my favorite things to do/to see in art pieces, so I really appreciate it when Ann does it
I love the fact that Ann: does chores looks after her real children looks after us debunks hacks rescues cakes creates new recipes hearts, pins and replies to comments does her dishes takes care of her neighbors(Jealous) and Updates her website for recipe details cooks hundred years old recipes writes a cookbook in addition to her regular size kitchen, she bakes in her tiny kitchen And is a Superwoman
I've rewatched this video a couple times, and the excitement in Ann's voice when she's talking about her book always makes me tear up in a happy way. it's so sweet to hear someone so excited and so proud of something they've worked so hard for ❤️♥️

Ann, you're a genius and I absolutely love the fact that you don't use fondant for everything like a lot of other bakers do. You're so innovative and creative with your ideas and I admire that about you.
@@ElvisLivesUpstairs I think they look fine but I personally don’t like the taste of it that much. I can eat it just fine but I’d prefer other options first. Plus fondant in the humidity of my house makes it sweat.
I’ve noticed “how to cake it” has started trying to do these fixing cake mistakes, and I’m not saying she’s copied Ann or anything but I prefer Ann’s way cause she actually recreates the failed cake and fixes around it. Love your channel Ann thanks for going above and beyond to help us. 😊
I used to be a fan of HTCI but it’s just the same stuff over and over. Yes, the designs are different each week but the process of how she makes and decorates the cakes is exactly the same. Gets boring!

I used to watch HTCI. One of my favorite channels. But I don’t like the new format at all. But I love Anne’s cake fails. Just not quite the same with Yo.
@@hw6656 I intensely dislike buttercream so I like fondant. It's just sugar, not much else other than that. It doesn't taste of anything really, it's just sweet. Marzipan... no. Just no. But if you like almonds a lot, you'll probably love marzipan.
Ann: "If you're going to make decorations use chocolate, not fondant" Me: uh oh didn't Taylor use fondant? Ann: *shows Taylor's fondant fish melting* 🤣🤣
Feed the algorithm! I shared this video with my mom, she always made amazing cakes for our birthdays. She is going through a rough time so I asked her to make me one of her cakes and she is so excited and happy now. Thanks Ann for inspiring me to inspire my mom! 😊💖🇨🇦
Ann is so entertaining, and is such a genuinely good person. She debunks everything so honestly and gives everything the best chance. She even rescues so many cakes and gives amazing instructions! She works so hard for all her videos too! Thanks Ann! So excited for the CookBook!! I will be there to support you in the Future!
She couldn't trademark that, but she might be able to copyright it, although I'm not sure a technique can be owned. If someone else uses her technique on youtube, could she sue them if they didn't pay her or at least give her credit? Probably not.
@@mygirldarby if she copyrighted the method, she would indeed have to ask for royalties if someone were to do it. But the law didn't say how much should the owner charge for fees. She is well within her right to charge a pretty penny for content farms, but could allow some amateur or passionate social media bakers some leeway with the royalty fees. Sting the wrestler has the name trademarked, but only asks Sting the musician $1 in fees for the usage of the name (not sure whether per use, like in advertising or promotion, or as an annual thing).

I have a collection of old Wilton shaped pans that I get at thrift shops and yard sales and have only used 1 and I decorated it a much more difficult way. Thank you SO MUCH for that first rescue.
I understand guys how satisfying can be for some people, that she's decorating these cakes these cakes beautifully, and the ganache is flowing down the cake, but for me..... I cant , because I always think about the waste.... is that only me?

No sugar coating and she makes sure WE have the directions to follow, she really cares about her supporters. We love you Ann🌸
Wow the island cake is sort of a piece of art. Imagine serving it somewhere and people would just gather around and think this is an artwork till you slice and eat it and they're just thinking "dafuq?"
@@storytime1469 Yeah, that’s what people don’t like about Instagram perfect deserts. They’re made for pictures, but they don’t taste good. Especially fondant, it’s just sugar play doh
i remember being in elementary school watching this channel make smaller food items & give decorating tips w just around 20k subscribers & it's amazing to see her progress now
eh, I think the pull-me-up/tsunami cakes are actually not that great in general? It just seems like a lot of sweet, thick product used that, a lot of the time, ends up on the plate and not the cake. Why not just frost it normally?
The Thomas the Tank cake is genius! Piping it straight into the tin and then letting it set looked amazing. Never heard of the other two but the ocean cake looked great.
I say this, because I have a cake business and make all of my cakes from scratch, including frosting and fondants/decorations and it’s extremely time consuming, but worth it. And Damn it if I have NEVER even thought about using the cooking tin that way and I feel like such an idiot now-cause, DUH-that’s genius and so simple! You are teaching every level of decorator something! 😍
Rewind 7 years to your “Draw my Life” video... I’d still like to hear about the time a guy threatened you with a smashed bottle and the other story that you said was for another time. I love your videos Ann!!
You’re so inspiring! I’ve watched all of your videos multiple times, my favorite one being the dessert tubes and honestly can’t believe you responded. Also I pre-ordered your cookbook!
As much as I appreciate Ann making cake save videos, I do hope that she can include Dave and the kids making the cake and saving the cakes. Since they're more amateur-ish in dealing with making cakes, it just gives me more confidence that even I can save the cake. Haha.
this is actually a good idea. maybe dave and the kid can try to make a cake, and if it's fail ann can fix it! I would love to watch that, sounds like fun
This is our second time watching this video. We just started watching and got interested again. These types of videos generally don’t have rewatchability but Ann’s presentation, production and personality makes them just enjoyable to watch.
I love cooking and baking and shes a literal queen. Interent nowdays is full of unnecessary drama and coming here just to watch and chill is a blessing :D
I like something in this cookbook: Even though she has the craziest recipes here on TH-cam and the most astonishing desserts that would make the greatest covers, she used an ordinary recipe with a simple garnish because I think she wants people to know that this book is not to impress you but to guide you to make recipes that are difficult and not usual yet can be replicated with the aid of this book.
I've never liked the look of those 'lava' cakes either. The cream with boba, yes but once you start with the glitter and extra sweet stuff no thank you! Thanks for always being here for us home bakers!
they probably disliked it because they are her old high school enimies people who bully her kids her husbands ex-es or the people who were mad at her for saying boba wrong she said bobba when it's pronounced bobe-a
As someone that doesn't generally like over-the-top cakes, I just have to say holy moley. I was just blown away. I also liked some of the mistakes, like when the lava cake ganache stopped half-way. I have never seen a character cake look as good as the rescued Thomas cake. I'll also have to get the cookbook when it comes out
Americans call it Jell-o because of a history of calling items by their most famous products (e.g. Q-tips, Kleenex, Windex) due to TV programmes having had commercial sponsors from the start. Nowadays people will often call it gelatin, but Jell-o is still more common. Jelly in America is a fruit spread made from just the juice of fruit along with pectin and sugar. It’s like jam without the fruit in it. Typically when the whole fruit is used without added sugar it’s called preserves. Jam isn’t used much in America but it is jelly with fruit added here.
I also believe that "common usage" in America, regarding generic names such as you've mentioned above, means that companies can lose enforceability of trademark. I believe theres a bit of a drive, because of this, to get rid of trade name common usage.
I like how ann always makes so many cakes just to help us the viewers know how to bake and make cakes and she's also debunking a lot of stuff and some of it is dangerous. thank u ann

Can we just take a moment to appreciate how many cakes she made to test out for the tsunami/lava cakes?
I think she definitely made multiple, but you can tell from some of the leftover coloring that she was reusing some of those.
I reckon they are shop-bought. They are cheap to buy and it would save her a lot of time if she's focussing on a decorating lesson.
And she doesn't even like the way they look!
She already said in another video that she re-uses a lot of stuff. With a bit of tweaking she can reuse the ganache and the cake underneath
Better yet, a moment of silence for her poor family which will be forced to eat the leftovers from these tests. 😵
Who else here did NOT expect all that chocolate to just .... pop right out of the cake tin like it did? I am legit shocked at how well that worked.
Genuinely. I thought she'd at least have to heat it a little to get it out!
i think the weight of the cake mightve pulled it out since she used frosting to hold them together
I figured it would need to be either heated a little or cooled and then tapped out. It was amazing! 🎉
Maybe it helps that she used candy melts. But tempered chocolate SHOULD work. I say should because I’ve never done it. I think the metal also helps.
I wonder if she had sprayed it or if there was leftover coating from when she baked the cake in it.
The Thomas cake coming out of the tin with the perfect chocolate looks like one of those viral hack she normally debunks
she's shown that some of those work they just didn't give the right instructions lmao
I think it's because all of the chocolate hang together and the weight of the whole thing make all of it come out, but I see how it could look suspicious.
I know, she's amazing!
How did it come out so smoothly?

Not in a bad way, of course. Injection molding is great at getting surface details captured. And the colors added made it look almost as if it was mass-produced, further adding to the illusion.

Am I the only one wondering and trying to count how many cakes Ann made for this video? 🙈
Pay attention to the colours on them - can you tell which ones I re-used the same cake for?
@@HowToCookThat
0:47 - First cake; in the shape of Thomas the Train, seems to be made of chocolate. This probably wasn't reused, as you put the coloured chocolate layer on top.
5:08 - (Island Cake) First layer of (presumabl chocolate) cake, flat and circular.
5:14 - (Island cake) Broken parts of chocolate cake that was used to make the shape of the rocky island.
*TSUNAMI CAKES TRIAL*
10:44 - Two layers of cake where you demonstrate what happens when you use heavily whipped cream.
11:22 - Two layers of cake for demonstrating what happens when you used 2 cups of less whipped cream.
11:36 - Two layers of vanilla cake (I noticed there is something in between the cakes, like a golden / caramel glaze) where three cups of cream, along with edible silver decorations, are used.
12:04 - Two layers of vanilla cake, where you use ganache, and it runs down between the cake and the acetate.
12:06: Frosted cake, appears to be of two layers + Green ganache is used.
12:40 - Frosted cake, where two cups of pink ganache is used.
13:26 - One cup of runnier pink ganache. I think this is where you reused the cake from 12:06 :D Given that it's pretty greenish.
13:38 - Medium sized cake where you used 1 and a half cups of runny purple ganache. Given that the cake was already quite pink, I think it's the same cake from 12:40!
13:48 - White cake, with 1 and a half cup of cyan ganache. I don't think this cake is reused.

I've never seen those island cakes but they are absolutely beautiful! And I can't wait for your cook book!
Very soon!
7:44: "This is how you rescue it."
Me: "oh, that was a fail?"
My thoughts with the Ganache tsunami cakes when they weren't soaked in Ganache.
@@astrisperspecto4130 hoi Temmie. I'm Bob(profile pic and username reference)
I thought the same thing! If I was making that I'd be pretty happy with how it turned out
as a person who has never seen an island cake, that looks too beautiful to eat
I'm not sure I would enjoy the combination of flavor and especially texture that would come from eating cake and jello at the same time. No denying that it looks amazing though.
I know that 1+ year later, the chance of Ann seeing this comment is low... but still... for everyone else.
I wanted to make a jelly cake, but way always too afraid. I watching your rescue several times and felt like I could give it a go. For the most part, I didn't fail. The cakes tasted amazing. My icing and custard were spot on. I had to make the jelly in two batches and the first was clear, but didn't set (forgot to reheat it, silly mistake). The second was a bit cloudy and did set. So, I rescued my cake by removing the bottom layer of jelly and putting white icing around the bottom of the cake. It turned my Antarctic Dream jelly cake into a Antarctic Cloud jelly cake. It became the continent sitting in ice on top of a cloud. I even made lemon custard icebergs. I claimed my icing mistakes on the jelly were intentional smaller pieces of ice floating on and in the water. I still need to work on my decorating and icing skills, but that is just practice.
Ann, Thank you for giving me the tips to make my cake a success and for showing us how to rescue cakes that seem like a failure, when they really aren't. We just need practice and a bit of creativitiy.
Cheers to everyone! Give it a go. It is a fun little challenge.
In a world flooded with unrealistic sandwich videos and a hotdog cake I genuinely appreciate your channel.
I am honestly so impressed by how many experiments you do - at least you have plenty of people around that will be happy to do their part of the clean up 😂
They are happy to eat - I still do my own dishes.
@@HowToCookThat The best part of cleaning up is licking the bowl I reckon!! I can’t believe you do all the dishes though 😱 That puts my dishes in the sink to shame 😅
@@HowToCookThat I'd happily do the dishes if it means that I have to eat all your creations all day !
Well, as long as she doesn't put skittles in the waffle maker.

She out here changing the game with that Thomas cake and we just came here for rescues!
I love how Ann is like "oh I've never tried this before" and then Thomas turned out looking better than the actual cartoon of the train xD And that island cake blows my mind every time I see someone make it. I think if I had one in person I wouldn't be able to bring myself to eat it, it's so pretty o_o
Anybody else feel like they are finally _understanding_ science while watching Ann's videos?
For SCIENCE!
I totally agree. The lava cakes looks like an enormous waste of ingredients.
A well-frosted cake is much better because it looks neat and is nice and solid.
I think the "fail" with too thick ganache that slowly went partway down the cake looked great. Do it ahead of time instead of at the table. The green color looked like slime lol reminds me of Nickelodeon green slime they used to dump on people's heads.
I think it really just depends on the occasion cuz I can see people using that for a kid's birthday party
That's also how I feel about mirror cakes -- so much wasted topping

Ann: announces cook book
Me who barely cooks a boiled egg: OMG YAAAAAAAAAAS
Buying the book is about more than wanting to learn to cook; it's also about wanting to support Ms. Reardon so that she can do what she loves, film herself doing what she loves, and then post those videos so we can watch her doing what she loves while we boil eggs
Oh my gosh, sameeeee!
@@jaydeefaire1195 "while we boil eggs" ( ; υ ; )
Ann - It's not perfect
Me - That is the embodiment of perfection.
I love that not only is Ann extremely talented with baking, she’s also an amazing artist and uses that skill with her baking. I love the small detail of making a coral reef-like sea bed, and her wanting the rocks to look more like rocks. Small details are some of my favorite things to do/to see in art pieces, so I really appreciate it when Ann does it
At 9:26 when she said Dubrovnik, my eyes popped up and I thought: "She knows where Croatia is! She knows where I live!" XD
Such a beautiful place
OMGG SAMEEE its rare that someone mentions Croatia in a video
all of us balkans the same when we hear our countries i swear
Same hereeeee
When you unveiled Thomas, I gasped. Good work.
Me: I'm not that into cooking/baking
Ann: I'm publishing a book
Me: Oh I want that
I love the fact that Ann:
does chores
looks after her real children
looks after us
debunks hacks
rescues cakes
creates new recipes
hearts, pins and replies to comments
does her dishes
takes care of her neighbors(Jealous)
and
Updates her website for recipe details

How did that chocolate come out of there so easily.

@@yurikoir no. I cant imagine that. It would make me cry.😅 or breaking as the piping has many thin lines on it.
@@bari2883 She says to use candy melts or an oil based compound chocolate.
Because when it cools down it becomes solid chocolate. She basically made a chocolate shell to hide the cake.

10:02 THAT IS LITERALLY THE MOST TALENT IVE EVER SEENNNNN PUT INTO A CAKE OH. MY. LAWD.
Ann, you're a genius and I absolutely love the fact that you don't use fondant for everything like a lot of other bakers do. You're so innovative and creative with your ideas and I admire that about you.
Fondant cakes look gross
@@ElvisLivesUpstairs I think they look fine but I personally don’t like the taste of it that much. I can eat it just fine but I’d prefer other options first. Plus fondant in the humidity of my house makes it sweat.
I’ve noticed “how to cake it” has started trying to do these fixing cake mistakes, and I’m not saying she’s copied Ann or anything but I prefer Ann’s way cause she actually recreates the failed cake and fixes around it. Love your channel Ann thanks for going above and beyond to help us. 😊
I used to be a fan of HTCI but it’s just the same stuff over and over. Yes, the designs are different each week but the process of how she makes and decorates the cakes is exactly the same. Gets boring!
@@adamdavanna6229 i stoped watching her videos a long time ago and slowly drifted over to Anne and I will never go back Anne use other things besides bloody fondant. Sure it takes talent to make stuff out of fodunt but it still bloody redundant like think a little more creative. I heard fondunt taiste bad idk
I used to watch HTCI. One of my favorite channels. But I don’t like the new format at all. But I love Anne’s cake fails. Just not quite the same with Yo.
@@hw6656 I intensely dislike buttercream so I like fondant. It's just sugar, not much else other than that. It doesn't taste of anything really, it's just sweet. Marzipan... no. Just no. But if you like almonds a lot, you'll probably love marzipan.
that island cake is fantastic! Ann Reardon is not only a great at technical cooking skills but also everything that makes food visually impressive!
I like how she essentially crumb coated the cake with jelly instead of frosting, to stop seepage.
Ann: "If you're going to make decorations use chocolate, not fondant"
Me: uh oh didn't Taylor use fondant?
Ann: *shows Taylor's fondant fish melting*

Feed the algorithm! I shared this video with my mom, she always made amazing cakes for our birthdays. She is going through a rough time so I asked her to make me one of her cakes and she is so excited and happy now. Thanks Ann for inspiring me to inspire my mom! 😊💖🇨🇦

I wonder how many cakes did she baked to make this video...she works soo hard to make these vids
You should get your Sugar Bowls trademarked, since everyone keeps stealing them.
She couldn't trademark that, but she might be able to copyright it, although I'm not sure a technique can be owned. If someone else uses her technique on youtube, could she sue them if they didn't pay her or at least give her credit? Probably not.
@@mygirldarby if she copyrighted the method, she would indeed have to ask for royalties if someone were to do it. But the law didn't say how much should the owner charge for fees. She is well within her right to charge a pretty penny for content farms, but could allow some amateur or passionate social media bakers some leeway with the royalty fees.
Sting the wrestler has the name trademarked, but only asks Sting the musician $1 in fees for the usage of the name (not sure whether per use, like in advertising or promotion, or as an annual thing).
Pretty sure she cant really do that sadly
I don’t think she wants to do that. Just credit where it’s due is all she asks for.
People were making sugar bowls before Ann.
I love watching these while not actually trying them

the island cake was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen 😍
I have a collection of old Wilton shaped pans that I get at thrift shops and yard sales and have only used 1 and I decorated it a much more difficult way. Thank you SO MUCH for that first rescue.
I understand guys how satisfying can be for some people, that she's decorating these cakes these cakes beautifully, and the ganache is flowing down the cake, but for me..... I cant , because I always think about the waste.... is that only me?
OMG the Thomas the Tank Engine chocolate was SO BEAUTIFUL but then again what else would I expect from Ann???
Ann is the most genuine youtubers, she’s light hearted, funny, her content is just entertaining.! Never bake have not interest in baking, but her creative ideas and great videos editing makes the video so well put. I love her content because it’s actually helpful!! No sugar coating and she makes sure WE have the directions to follow, she really cares about her supporters. We love you Ann🌸
The island cake looks really realistic 0.0
Wow the island cake is sort of a piece of art. Imagine serving it somewhere and people would just gather around and think this is an artwork till you slice and eat it and they're just thinking "dafuq?"

I can't be the only one who thought that first ganache tsunami cake "fail" actually looked really pretty.
eh, I think the pull-me-up/tsunami cakes are actually not that great in general? It just seems like a lot of sweet, thick product used that, a lot of the time, ends up on the plate and not the cake. Why not just frost it normally?
@@GriffenDoesIt I agree. I think it's mainly meant to be eye candy, no pun intended lol
The Thomas the Tank cake is genius! Piping it straight into the tin and then letting it set looked amazing. Never heard of the other two but the ocean cake looked great.
I say this, because I have a cake business and make all of my cakes from scratch, including frosting and fondants/decorations and it’s extremely time consuming, but worth it. And Damn it if I have NEVER even thought about using the cooking tin that way and I feel like such an idiot now-cause, DUH-that’s genius and so simple! You are teaching every level of decorator something! 😍

She doesn’t have a story to tell every time she makes a cake!! Also she actually teaches you HOW to make it.
Rewind 7 years to your “Draw my Life” video... I’d still like to hear about the time a guy threatened you with a smashed bottle and the other story that you said was for another time. I love your videos Ann!!
ha, wow that is a long time ago. It is an amazing story & one I've never really told in full ... one days, when we do a live stream maybe :)
You’re so inspiring! I’ve watched all of your videos multiple times, my favorite one being the dessert tubes and honestly can’t believe you responded.
Also I pre-ordered your cookbook!
As much as I appreciate Ann making cake save videos, I do hope that she can include Dave and the kids making the cake and saving the cakes. Since they're more amateur-ish in dealing with making cakes, it just gives me more confidence that even I can save the cake. Haha.

This is our second time watching this video. We just started watching and got interested again.

That tsunami cake looks amazing the first time, but then she went and re-do it so the jelly is clear. I was mind blown.
Island* but ye
8K looking Thomas and the island looked like a real terrarium. Wtf this stuff blows my mind.
I love cooking and baking and shes a literal queen. Interent nowdays is full of unnecessary drama and coming here just to watch and chill is a blessing :D
I like how ann's videos are both entertaining and helpful
_stares at 5 minute crafts, so yummy, etc._
unlike those 'channels'
I like something in this cookbook: Even though she has the craziest recipes here on TH-cam and the most astonishing desserts that would make the greatest covers, she used an ordinary recipe with a simple garnish because I think she wants people to know that this book is not to impress you but to guide you to make recipes that are difficult and not usual yet can be replicated with the aid of this book.
I've never liked the look of those 'lava' cakes either. The cream with boba, yes but once you start with the glitter and extra sweet stuff no thank you! Thanks for always being here for us home bakers!
Those 85 people who had the audacity to dislike this, you’re only jealous you don’t have her talents
210 now! Who are these people? smh 😡
Answer they are the people from the videos she debunks
Their just yt bots equaling out the likes n dislikes, don’t worry only a lil bit of people dislike her
@@griffiinator oh, I didn’t know that. That’s good to hear
they probably disliked it because they are her old high school enimies people who bully her kids her husbands ex-es or the people who were mad at her for saying boba wrong she said bobba when it's pronounced bobe-a
“It didn’t cover everything but I don’t think you’d need more cream than that”
A type of negativity I don’t need in my life 🤣🤣
I love Anne’s videos
Entertaining and educational, and written/narrated in a smart way
the character cake idea is INCREDIBLE. HOLY HELL. I never would have thought of that
That Thomas cake looked perfect, much better than following the instructions would achieve.
Ann: Hmm... What should I do next?
Ann: Oh yes! I'll make others FAILS and RESCUE them.
Me: Oh Ann! You are a GENIUS.
As someone that doesn't generally like over-the-top cakes, I just have to say holy moley. I was just blown away. I also liked some of the mistakes, like when the lava cake ganache stopped half-way.
I have never seen a character cake look as good as the rescued Thomas cake.
I'll also have to get the cookbook when it comes out
Americans call it Jell-o because of a history of calling items by their most famous products (e.g. Q-tips, Kleenex, Windex) due to TV programmes having had commercial sponsors from the start. Nowadays people will often call it gelatin, but Jell-o is still more common.
Jelly in America is a fruit spread made from just the juice of fruit along with pectin and sugar. It’s like jam without the fruit in it. Typically when the whole fruit is used without added sugar it’s called preserves. Jam isn’t used much in America but it is jelly with fruit added here.
I also believe that "common usage" in America, regarding generic names such as you've mentioned above, means that companies can lose enforceability of trademark. I believe theres a bit of a drive, because of this, to get rid of trade name common usage.
i really appreciate the subtitles on your videos, it's so thoughtful!
Dave types them in every week so I'll let him know
