    If you look at a real feather, you can see the sort of "spine" of the feather. So seeing the wires seems 100% on par with realistic feathers (both cake 1 & 3). But 3 was the only one who truly followed the prompt. 1. was gravity defying but not a gravity defying CAKE. 2 was confused. that's a 3d cake. and 3. followed the prompt beautifully.

    I LOVE that peacock cake! I wouldn't be too bothered by seeing the wire slightly through the middle, since natural white feathers also tend to have a darker spine. It's stunning. I do think maybe a slight luster dusting with some of the gold already used in the design anyway would have made it even more dynamic. The pegasus is also gorgeous! And you get so much cake for your money, so I definitely think, based on bang for your buck, the pegasus definitely takes the cake. But for me, the peacockk wins. The character is cute, but def not gravity defying.

    All 3 are wonderful. The Animal little girl cake truly is adorable, and it she doesn’t meet the criteria. More as you say, a 3D character cake. Gravity defying should have an element hovering above the cake. And I totally concur with flying bird cake. Love that it was monochromatic. Had they dusted/coloured the feather structure, say silver or gold, that would have hidden the wires and given depth and more interest to the overall cake.

    The 3rd is amazing! I would really like to know what’s all edible on each piece? Maybe I missed it but I was expecting all of it If not most of it to be edible! Maybe that’s just me? Obviously the support can’t be cake when it’s gravity defying! The owl/ umbrella one was kind of gravity defying but definitely agree it’s more 3D! This is all coming from my extensive “research” watching bakery videos! 😂

    I feel like for the second one the theme could have been the fact that it’s summer time however it’s really hot outside which could explain the cheeks and also for the umbrella some people do use umbrellas in the summer time to avoid the sun beaming on them. IDK just my assumption😁😂

    Amazing work on all of them! The owl cake was lovely and just having the two legs for support is certainly impressive, but it just doesn't have much impact. The white bird has got to be my favourite. I personally think the white colour with gold highlights looks amazing, although perhaps a little more gold to hide those wires. The pegasus was amazing too of course, and the detailing on the scenery was amazing, though I wonder what the pegasus itself was made of? Styrofoam?

    Cake no. 2 - $240-$300 It was a beautiful cake but it wasn't a gravity defying cake. Also the concept didn't make sense
    Cake no. 3 - $600-$650 Wow, just wow. That's all I have to say

      This is my personal opinion, but I feel like the price ranges are way too low compared to what an actual cake that cost would be. As one comment said, these cakes look like thousand dollar cakes considering how a regular wedding cake is $500-$650. Tho ig I'd agree that the 3rd one is the most expensive and the 2nd one is the cheapest.

    I feel like the reason they were all still standing after 24 hours, is that the bakeries knew the cakes were high risk, and made extra sure they would keep standing, while with some of the other 3D cakes, they might have underestimated how much structure the cake would need.

    The one with the pegasus would have "won" for me, but that baker cheated, IMO. The only "gravity defying" part was just a really cool topper. The owl may not be super impressive from a gravity standpoint, but I would expect to pay $500+ for it in my area. The last cake is really impressive, but I agree that the black wires really detract from the "wonder/mystery" of a gravity defying cake...they could have also dusted more of the feathers in the gold just to give them a bit more dimension and define them a bit more because looking at it from far away, the feathers kind of look like scruffy fur. They are all better than I could do, though, so good for them! :)

    I’d like to see a mash up cake challenge. For instance, my youngest graduated high school on my 50th bday. Typically we order an elaborate multi tiered cake for graduation (party) that incorporates all the special sport, hobby, school themes/colors and shows off what college they’re heading to & what they’re studying. So it’s ultimately over the top personal to the grad. But since a 50th bday (especially mom’s), and it signals the beginning of empty nest life... both should be celebrated in one mash up epic cake (as an example).

    @anushribhatt2045 2 года назад +8

    Here is my opinion:
    1) The first one was amazing. Briliantly detailed and overall show stopping. However, it wasn't exactly a gravity defying cake. One of the reasons gravity-defying cakes are so hard to make is because cake is very heavy, so it needs a well thought-out support structure, but if the gravity-defying part is not even cake, I don't think it should count.
    2) It wasn't gravity-defying at all. It was beautiful and an amazing 3-D cake, but that's it. I think the umbrella part was supposed to be 'gravity-defying', but is it truly defying gravity if there is an entire human structure holding it up?
    3) Now this was what I like to call gravity-defying. I personally didn't mind the wires, as it kind of brought a realistic feel to it. Birds have quite dark spine structure which is usually visible through feathers. Kind of like veins on our wrists. In front of the pegasus, I get how it can look a bit bland, and perhaps it would have been much better if they had coloured it red-orange to make it look like a phoenix but even now, it is so beautiful and the intricate designs are just brilliant.

  • @Lesliejcraftycreations
    @Lesliejcraftycreations 2 года назад +9

    The only one was the white peacock, None of the other ones were worth the price. Gravity defining cake means the cake is the one in the air suspended from whatever they use for the suspension. The Pegasus was cool but not cake. The girl owl was adorable.

    First cake - I loved it completely, until you mentioned how little cake you get for that price. Kind of ruined it for me. Second cake - not what I would have expected, its cute but I wanted much more surprise. Third cake - I agree completely with the black wires needing to be white. Otherwise it was a great concept and really nice. I feel like there should be at least a touch of color somewhere. With that being said, I would have to pick the first cake for overall concept, I just wish there was more actual cake for the price.

    I don't think the criticism of "oh I can see the wire, I know where the pipe is that holds it up" is warranted. There is absolutely no way to make that cake without those things. None. I often make gravity defying objects and I 'm sorry but there is no universe where there isn't some wire or pipe under it. Furthermore, it's a tiny bit unfair that you say "oh I could never do this kind of thing" but then proceed to say "well I dont'want to see the wire and this and this" which is a tad unfair. In other videos it wasn't that harsh, but here it feels a bit unnecessary.

    It blows my mind every time I think about the way cakes are usually made in the US and Canada. These cakes are just sponge cake and some cream in the middle. In Estonia I am used to cakes having - first of all - much thinner layers of sponge cake, it isn’t as dense and we have .. fillings. Like usually berries, bananas etc. it’s rare to just have a cake with some buttercream and that’s it.. no matter the flavour of the cream.
