OK, I am still new to this caking thing and I love to watch all the TV shows like Cake Boss and Fabulous Cakes, but I have a question. I see them picking up huge slabs of cake and tossing them around without them cracking or breaking. What kind of cake are they using? Does it taste good? Does it have any moisture in it? I can't even make a cake over 9 X 13 that will stay in one piece?
I remember buddy saying he uses pound cake and people on here have said his cakes are really good.
lol samething crosses my mind every single time I watch Cake Boss
x2 I would love to know the recipe!! 
I belive buddy has said quite a few times that the slabs are sponge cake!
Ingy, you would be correct!
lol ok...how to make Sponge Cake?? any good recipes out there ??
I've heard them refer to it as "sponge" too. I tried the sponge cake recipe from the cake boss website...........it wasn't very good imo, but I bake at high altitude and didn't make any adjustments. I probably won't have the opportunity to decorate with such huge slabs of cake, but I've always wondered the same thing.
I have wondered the same thing. I don't like cake that has been frozen....it seems to dry out. I guess that explains my break downs 
Frozen cake. And I've heard from people who go to parties where his cakes are featured that it isn't very good...dry.
actually, I find that proper freezing of my cakes makes them moister. I wrap in press and seal as soon as I can handle them and put them in the freezer.
I read not too long ago here on CC that he just put out a book with some of his recipes.
even partially frozen my cakes would not hold up to that kind of handling.
