    Best part of the video: the crunch of the profiterole as you sliced the cake. Most beautiful cake I've seen you do yet!!!

    I used to watch food network challenge as a kid, and remember you competing. Like that you are now teaching people how to make the art too. One of your cake combos inspired my last birthday cake!

    The way you drape the fondant over the cake it looks just like fabric. You make it look very easy!

    I WAS PLANNING ON GIVING A CROQUEMBOUCHE TOWER FOR MY GIRL FRIEND'S WEDDING BUT WHEN I SAW YOUR VERSION, W-O-W!!! I NEVER COULD HAVE IMAGINE YOU COULD JAZZ UP A PLAIN CROQUEMBOUCHE TOWER! THANKS FOR GIVING ME THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CROQUEMBOUCHE WEDDING CAKE IDEA! SUCH A UNIQUE AND BEAUTIFUL (AND I'M SURE IT'S DELICIOUS, TOO!) CROQUEMBOUCHE CAKE!!

  • @Anazepumpkin
    @Anazepumpkin 5 лет назад

    So happy about this video. I've been trying to explain to my fiance that a Croquembouche on top of a "standard" wedding cake would work (to mix my frenchness with his britishness), and this is spot on! Now to learn how to bake...

  • @cathycarlin7910
    @cathycarlin7910 6 лет назад

    Awesome Wedding Cake Josh. Your talent never ceases to amaze me !!!!!!!!!! Thanks for all of these glorious lessons.

  • @abaigealduda2756
    @abaigealduda2756 6 лет назад

    I'm a Justice of the Peace, and I see a lot of weddings. I think this is a spectacular idea, and if I were to get married again, I'd go with a version of this. What a really great idea, and fun and easy for guests, too! I also loved your steampunk cake. I may steal that idea later this year to compete in a local (but very competitive) agricultural fair. I'm not a cake maker, but I do love to bake; you really inspire me. Thank you!!!!

  • @123dinithi

    JJR,
    My 2.5 year old daughter ADORES you! She has a CHD and as she gets closer to her 2nd open heart surgery, she's become tired and crabby, however as soon as we put you on, she gets super excited! She calls you the "Cakey Guy" and loves to re-watch all the Man About Cake videos.
    Thank you for bringing her joy :)
    P.S.- Katja says "Hi Cakey Guy"

    This would make a great cake for christmas w/ just a few color changes and some added stuff in the tower part. It's so gorgeous!

  • @OSCARMlLDE
    @OSCARMlLDE 6 лет назад +14

    I had to write an imagist poem for class so I wrote one about a croquembouche. It goes like this:
    Unpronounceable name
    But it's French, so what did you expect?
    Consisting of eggs and frustration
    One wrong move
    And you're left with Jewish funeral bread

    @gwynrose2427 6 лет назад

    OMG this is exactly the kind of cake me and my partner want to do. I want a semi-traditional American cake, but my partner is French and wants a croquembouche, so we thought, why not both? This is awesome!

    Hi Joshua, I looked up Margaret Braun, Oh Mamma Mia I'm a fan of hers too, wonderful cake you did today I'm sure if she sees your cake today she would go over the moon. I see now why you really love her cakes, they have a unique touch, and so do your art work, well done, have a blessed day.

    I decided to try and make an epic cake while I'm on my easter holiday. It just took me 2 hours to make 10 fondant flowers. It's so fiddly! You make everything look so easy! Haha but it's awesome. Thanks for the inspiration. I'm gonna finish the thing tomorrow.

    For everyone doing this, Here are some Tips for the Pâte à Choux...
    1. After incorporating the flour to your water butter salt sugar mix keep stirring until a white layer forms on the bottom of your Pan, that Just insures that all the starch granules burst
    2. Let the doug/pastry knead without adding Eggs in the standmixer until No more Steam comes of it.
    3. After the dough/pastry hast cooled down a little add in one egg at a time and wait until its fully incorporated.

    You are always making such amazing intro versions for all the season/out of the ordinary shows and I like them lots!

    I love this. Also came away feeling it was incomplete as I’ve always seen these made with the threads of sugar added at the end. I see that it would be hard to do because of the cake, but maybe improvise some caramelized sugar shapes to add on as a substitute?

    This cake is beautiful and flawless. I'm sure Margaret Braun would be proud. Not my type of wedding cake but still beautiful! Great job JJR. Next you should make a Frank the Tank wedding cake and let the crew decorate it. Or just take his idea and make it more flawless and actually elegant. Sort of. Maybe. Probably not. But it'll still look good.

    And i liked the colour of the fondant before the air-colouring better 😁
