Is it a new Buttercream episode or an old one?

i've just gotten into the decorating thing in the last few months, so i'm a little lost about all the reputable chefs that i'm always seeing mentioned on here. when i was at our local cake supply house the other day, i heard the owner mention to another customer about a cake show that was coming across the street at the opryland hotel. i just looked it up and it's in august, and it's with..................alton brown! if any of you are interested, here's what they have written on the site

"As part of Gaylord Opryland's new Celebrity Chef Series, best-selling cookbook author and Food Network's "Good Eats" mastermind Alton Brown brings his lively cooking seminar to Gaylord Opryland® on August 18. Don't miss the most fascinating time you'll ever spend learning about food as only Alton can present it - with a twist of pop culture, comedy, kitchen science, and plain good eating!"

you can go to their website to see the detail for yourself, www.oprylandhotel.com, go over to the left side and scroll down to special events, and you'll see it listed.

it would be a fun time to do the tourist thing in nashville, hear some great live music, and see someone you envy for their well-known skills. i'd love be able to meet y'all too!!! let me know if you plan on coming, and i'll roll out the welcome wagon!

I don't know if it's a repeat. It's new for me!

I don't do cakes, so this might be a stupid question, but is that how you guys make your buttercream? It seems like it would take forever!

No - at least not me! I didn't see the episode but just checked out his website, and that's now how I make it. Don't know about anyone else.

He goes into the making of BC to indepth for me. Fast and good is alright for me. Though I have thought about making it his way but not when I am busy with cake orders. Just like I experimented with the IMBC, now that is my fav.

The one that he made has very similar technique with creating IMBC, except that he's using whole egg instead of just white egg... and corn syrup to dissolve the sugar instead of just plain water.

I saw a fabulous show on one of the fashion channels last night, an hour all about wedding cakes.

Okay, there was a lady on there that, I think, posts on here! She did that dog cake, but some of her pictures, I thought I recognized!
