Wow, thanks everyone! I promise as soon as I know when it will air, I'll be telling the world! icon_biggrin.gif

I will tell you that we only got to do one particial practice run before we left so we never got to see our cake entirely completed until the day we did it on air. I was SO relieve and SO proud that I cried when we were done! icon_cry.gif A camera man was on me then too but I don't know if that part will be shown. I'll probably look like a big dork.

Cool beans! I'll be watching the thread, waiting for your air date.

I applied for last season's cake-off but there were a lot of unkown questions at the time. Now having seen the show, it seems everyone competing owns a bakery and/or already has their name out there.

I want to see a show developed for those of us working as a hobby who have the talent and no where to showcase it! icon_biggrin.gif It would be fun watching a bunch of SAHM's compete, lol.

Macsmom,
I do believe that all of the lead decorators for each team do own a shop or bakery. I *think* we are the only team from AZ to have competed on UCO so far. Woohoo!

However, many of the assistants including me are stay at home moms or have other jobs, some relating to cakes and some not at all. Another girl on our team is also a SAHM and the guy on our team is a meat cutter at Costco and never touched anything cake related in his life! It was so awesome to see him run fondant through the sheeter like a pro!

Yeah, it was so much fun shooting a video to send in with the application - me and my friend, another SAHM who has never touched a cake!

However, the experience really peaked her interest in finding a kitchen for me. That was last March, and now, several months later, we are finally beginning to really look into a bakery! It will be a dream come when that happens, and then I will hunt down more applications for cake challenges, lol!

I would be thrilled if they could put something together for us SAHM/bakers!! I can't sell and I am thinking about entering the local cake shows next year. A cake competition would be soo much fun!!!!

Yes, TLC (the Learning Channel, although it's really not educational at all, LOL) is an American Channel. You can also watch parts of it on the internet. Here's a link to the Ultimate Cake-Off episodes from the last season: http://tlc.discovery.com/search/results.html?query=ultimate+cake+off&search.x=29&search.y=9

They also air Cake Boss, so here's the link to that show:
http://tlc.discovery.com/search/results.html?focus=video&query=cake+boss&search.x=35&search.y=9

I just want you to know that not all American families and/or co-workers yell like Buddy Valastro's!

Congrats!!!

The casting director called my baker up and came out and film us for the execs to review. We are supposed to get the call for Season 3. I talked to Leigh Grode and she says they are taping more so there will be more episodes this season.

It ISSS a lot of work! After reading the NOVEL of paperwork me and my baker were like....ooohhhh....wooooowwwww! LOTS of work but the experience is priceless!

Congrats again! I wish there were a way we could plug CC on the show....

hmmm... lapel pins??? Tattoos??? hahahaha!!!

Can't wait to watch ya!

CC already has a great plug - they are mentioned in Ace of Cakes new book! I grinned hugely when I saw that. You can always plug CC yourself on the show ("Thanks for the support from my peers at CC") icon_wink.gif
