The Great Debate Put To The Test ~ Scratch Vs. Boxed
Decorating By yummy_in_my_tummy Updated 17 May 2011 , 7:03pm by jules5000
Well, as one poster stated, this is a lose/lose debate. The scratch bakers are going to continue to support scratch cakes, and the boxed cake bakers are going to continue to support their decision, and the doctored mix bakers theirs. No side is ever going to win because of the varied taste buds in this world of cakes. Each side is right for their own reasons. It's been discussed so often on CC that maybe the topic should be dropped for good since it seems to cause "friction". We're all here to enjoy baking and decorating cakes, so let's all concentrate on that and let this particular topic of discussion end. The unfortunate thing about "writing" one's words in one of these posts is that you can't judge the tone of the written word, and each person is going to interpret it differently. I don't think any of the posters on this thread are meaning to demean or belittle anyone else, but it's a very touchy subject and there are true believers on each side, so it's best to leave the subject in the archives of CC and move on. There should be no hard feelings or harsh words taken from this discussion, just an exchange of opinions.....and an enjoyment of baking and decorating.
Kristiemarie, I was not picking on any one person when I said grow up. I also said if the shoe fits wear it. That is not picking any one person out of the forum and picking on them. If what you said was an opinion only, that is fine. I think that you felt someone was picking on you when they weren't. There are always going to be different opinions on these things. I may not agree with any of them, but I am not going to think that someone is trying to pick on me unless they call me out specifically and accuse me of saying something I did not say or mean. Neither should you. I was not talking to you or anyone in particular. If you didn't say anything wrong or demeaning to someone else then the shoe does not fit and you do not need to try to wear it. I was trying to make peace in the situation as I understood it not trying to cause more friction so again I am sorry if I did. Please forgive.
