Reminded me a bit of the tennis court cake they made once. I'd honestly be up for more "we attempt this hard thing" type videos. Stuff that would usually be perfected over a long period of time, but obviously has to suck a bit at the first attempt.
There is an art to give coherent instructions without condescension and snark. Doing it wonderfully over zoom to two "normal" lads who've spend 2 decades ribbing each other and attaining good results.... Brava Laurie! Kudos Laurie! Magnificent Laurie! Damn fine job Laurie! Good job Mike & Jamie! (Thanks for "no pigs in a blanket filling" Jamie.)
This. I came here to exactly say this! I assume there was some video editing, but Laurie is so bubbly and fun and still gives great, clear instructions! We should all strive for this!
Laurie really shined here! It's amazing that you both managed to complete the assignment. Mike's cake looked best but clearly Jamie outdid him when it came to the filling.
I loved this episode. Laurie was so cheerful, easy to follow and ;encouraging to our hapless boys. Said boys did an amazing job. They used their imagination and both had beautiful results. I can't believe how many tips and tricks I learned just by watching 2 people with my level of cake decorating experience take on this challenge.
@@DancerMusicanActress She's a delight. I just finished the one with Ben. When the cake didn't turn out right, she found a way to fix it. She's so positive and fun.
This reminds me: I think it'd be really cool to have a competition where a chef makes a meal, but the normals have to plate it, and the plating is what's scored.
@@makessou27 She admitted herself that she is not good with flavours. Her speciality is decorations and depending on where you're living you might not know all the flavour combinations in the world.
@@makessou27 remember they’re baking not cooking. She’s probably a bit surprised he’s putting pepper in a cake. That’s not normal pepper is a savoury seasoning and flavour, not sweet.
I found you guys because of Laurie's channel. You did a phenomenal job of sorting recipes for her, and I love how you handled decorating a cake! Subscribed all round now.
I adore @theicingartist & it’s making my whole day to see this challenge. The cakes looked really pretty. Jaime catching a falling cake slice deserves a round of applause too. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Next live idea: Remote control chef with drunk Laurie, Poppy and Ben attempting to control the Normals. James and Uncle Roger judging. Their task: Make a potato-based pastry with rice-based icing.
Seeing that you guys collab’d with Laurie was so exciting! I really hope you do more of these with her, maybe trying some of her other cake challenges (like the mystery decor options maybe?) and still have her there to guide you a bit. I would love to see how the next cakes turn out and if you really do make progress!
Loved Laurie, so upbeat and helpful, stayed positive and patient with Mike & Jamie (a real task...LOL) they did a great job, taking into account that Jamie struggles with colorblindness he did great. 🥰
Really loving Laurie's energy! Pity she's not in the studio with the boys, felt like there would be some awesome dynamic. I think she's based in Canada? Maybe a Canada trip soon? 😬
@@SortedFood If you guys come to Canada (depending on which side, because the country is big), I'd love to, at the very least, give you guys a high-five, just for the amount of entertainment and knowledge you've provided us over the years.
@@SortedFood a Rockies trip would give some awesome opportunities to try some Canadian game like bison, elk, moose, and caribou! Not to mention some incredible sightseeing and maybe some segments similar to the recent mountain trip, plenty of places to hike, dip in hot springs, camp, and ski/snowboard
What a fun episode! You have me wanting to decorate cakes too. Also Jamie is iconic. “I safety dollop every meal that I have.” You and me both bro! 10:17
From my experience, I find it easier to cover by put the icing inside a piping bag and make a horizontal tubes of icing. Not only it ensures the cake won't be wonky, it also saves a ton of icing. Also if the buttercream icing didn't come neatly, you can always heat the knife and scraper to help it smooth out.
Seriously impressive for first-time amateur cake decorators! I don't know that I'd want either cake for a wedding, but I'd have both for my birthday. Well done!
You guys did amazing but Laurie is really the star with her instructions and great laugh! I would love to see you do one of these videos with Sohla and Ham El-Waylli. They had a series where they were given a mystery ingredient and had to do a full course meal, including dessert, featuring the ingredient. It was everything from coffee to peanut butter to a snack item. They’re definitely on your wave length of world flavors, improv and no food waste.
Great job. and wonderful guidance by Laurie. Thanks for the fun. So surprised Jamie didn't pull the 'color blind' when she mentioned the colors. 😂 Loads of fun and wow, that is not a scary thing to think to try out, hmmm
First time viewer and new subscriber, coming over from Laurie's channel. I really enjoyed the interaction between your channel on this video as well as the advice for Laurie on her Passion Fruit Cake. Great spirit and energy between both channels.
Y'all did very good for the amount of experience you have! Cake decorating takes a lot of practice. I hope that experiments and videos like this help people understand WHY cakes like this cost so much- they are time, material, and expertise intensive works of edible art.
Very cool having someone as a guest in a video via video link - it worked really well thanks to the quality of audio and video. And saves on carbon emissions from avoiding flights etc! Definitely keen to see more of this sort of thing.
As a self taught cake maker and a viewer of sorted food since the beginning, I’ve been waiting for a video with more cake decorating. Such a good video guys 😊
I love Laurie, so nice to see her on your channel. Years ago I followed one of her tutorials to make my son an Iron Throne cake, she's such a good teacher. You both did so well for beginners, I'm well impressed.
I love Laurie and her energy sooo much!! She was so good with her instructions and super easy to follow. Also, she knew characteristics about the boys and made this episode awesome to watch! It also didn't feel like a forced collab, everyone was chill and just enjoying themselves. One of my favourite Sorted eps👌🏻
Mike and Jamie did fantastic job! I love the hack idea for buying sheet cakes if you don’t have extra day. It’s true you guys bring out unique flavors idea good job guys!
Fabulous and fun video! Thank you. Can't believe how much I learned in less than 20 minutes! Since they don't have grocery store cakes in UK, cake mix sheet cakes and box frosting could probably be used? That's even cheaper than $20.
Loved this very instructive and well explained "class". Laurie, the instructions were amazing and easy to follow and I love the explaining behind the "why" they are doing it. And guys...koodos and great looking cakes and being such sports. It was a pleasure to watch.
Wow! Amazing job guys! Both look fab, Mike’s a wee bit more to my taste with the flower placement, but I think I’d enjoy the taste of Jamie’s more. Well done! And fantastic tutoring by Laurie too!
Awww, this one was sweet with the boys hugging at the end. They did a great job. I do love how she told them to use the flowers to cover up the holes and neither of them did 😅
Really loved the format-watch Laurie too, so great collab! So much fun and I learned a lot. M&S used to do plain cakes you can decorate-wonder if they still do? 🤔
Well done Mike & Jamie! Plus great tutelage from Laurie, it can't be easy doing that over webcam. I'm not a huge dessert person & the thought of decorating cakes used to fill me with dread. But now I just treat it like an art project & let my drawing & sculpture skills come into play. Still not great with a piping bag though & shy away from any writing on the cake with one. 🎂🍰
I have always thought it would be fun to see you guys make some layered cakes! They look so gorgeous! 🤩. Looking forward to hopefully some more baking videos 🎉🤞
I would love to see an episode where you do Recommend weekly nutrition diet in different ways! Like On budget, what is recommended and how you would do the same thing etc.
Watching you guys do this and actually take it seriously but still having your great sense of humor was a great thing to see AND you both did great. The cakes look awesome and probably taste even better.
I love how you can tell Laurie is a genuine fan of Sorted making in jokes.
Considering that was their first time, Jamie and Mike did an amazing job. I'd love to see more cake decorating from other members of the team.
A really good job huh!
@@SortedFood How about Mike and/or Jamie vs Ben?
"Normals" who got a guided practice run vs a chef
@Ryushiro Kazuhira I'm pretty sure Ben did Barry's wedding cake, so he has a decent amount of experience. It would not be very fair.
Reminded me a bit of the tennis court cake they made once.
I'd honestly be up for more "we attempt this hard thing" type videos. Stuff that would usually be perfected over a long period of time, but obviously has to suck a bit at the first attempt.
I'm about to say
There is an art to give coherent instructions without condescension and snark.
Doing it wonderfully over zoom to two "normal" lads who've spend 2 decades ribbing each other and attaining good results....
Brava Laurie!
Kudos Laurie!
Magnificent Laurie!
Damn fine job Laurie!
Good job Mike & Jamie! (Thanks for "no pigs in a blanket filling" Jamie.)
Indeed, she did an amazing job 🤩
I appreciate your comment and her work, but as an added bonus I love that you used "brava". Perfect.
This. I came here to exactly say this! I assume there was some video editing, but Laurie is so bubbly and fun and still gives great, clear instructions! We should all strive for this!
Laurie really shined here! It's amazing that you both managed to complete the assignment. Mike's cake looked best but clearly Jamie outdid him when it came to the filling.
Laurie is such a sweetheart, it was lovely to see her encouraging the lads! Maybe she could be in more videos in the future?

I completely agree
If you haven't watched her videos you should go watch, she is such a bundle of joy

I like this, hope they read this 😊
I love watching the Icing Artist on youtube - love this concept
It’s so nice to see the channel collaborating with experts. We need more collabs! Bring back the OG Friends of the channel.
Glad you're loving the collabs! Lots more to come :)
@@SortedFoodWe Stan a Collab.
Expert who's shocked when she hears basil goes with pepper ?
@@makessou27 She admitted herself that she is not good with flavours. Her speciality is decorations and depending on where you're living you might not know all the flavour combinations in the world.
@@makessou27 remember they’re baking not cooking. She’s probably a bit surprised he’s putting pepper in a cake. That’s not normal pepper is a savoury seasoning and flavour, not sweet.
Jamie's cake was so excited to get eaten that a slice tried to jump onto the plate!
Also, the UK doesn't have sheet cakes in every grocery store? I can see why we fought a war, then.

She's delightful! And "safety dallop" is now a thing in my house.
Everyone should adopt the 'Safety Dollop' 🤣
I love Laurie's energy. Fantastic episode!

@Wes Duplantier you are too lit my guy! That sh*t would be funny as hell
I miss the episode where Ben baked Barry's wedding cake.
It's still up if you want to rewatch it.... that was a good episode!
Ben got orange juice from the bar and got 2 clementines from the packed lunch of the florist.

It can be found, and rewatched!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💐
@@PokhrajRoy. That's hilarious
Thanks love it love see Jamie and Mike make a 5 layer cake

So good to see Laurie on the channel, been watching her for a couple of years now. Love it when two of my favourites get together.

Fantastic episode! Now I want to try both fillings. They are so intriguing. Thanks Laurie, Mike, and Jamie 💖

Love your channel and love Laurie's channel! What a fun episode!!
Amazing episode, more videos like this please and thanks.
Wow those filling combinations ..i must try them!!! ❤🎉
Great cake decorating, thank KS for being brave as always and upping your game on making food look appetizing and the flavor busted. 😄👍👏👏👏🇺🇸💖🇬🇧

Loving the tips Laurie is giving in this. Not that I’m ever attempting a cake like this, but still great guidance!
Agreed! Such good tips if you ever want to do your own at home too!
Two of my favourite baking channels in one video. Today is a good day!
Wow! Amazing job guys! Both look fab, Mike’s a wee bit more to my taste with the flower placement, but I think I’d enjoy the taste of Jamie’s more. Well done! And fantastic tutoring by Laurie too!
You did a great job indeed! ❤
Hoping there be more decorating an special flavourings done future wise!
Laurie!!!! I'm so excited for this. What a lovely suprise after a long day. ❤️
Oh a new pass it on decorate a cake😂 That could be hilarious.

Thanks, Will 🤓👍🏻
Both cakes are winners!!! Love seeing these two creators working together. Please do more of this!! Awesome video!!!!
LOVE this collab - my 2 fave UA-cam channels! Loving the series! 🤩
Love this idea. I need to see Barry follow a store cake transformation tutorial audio only to see how his cake would turn out. ❤
My favorite UA-cam series collide👍❤️ Excellent job to all of you for this video. TY
Really loved the format-watch Laurie too, so great collab! So much fun and I learned a lot. M&S used to do plain cakes you can decorate-wonder if they still do? 🤔

I love it!!! Good match with Laurie and the boys. The cakes actually looked good and the flavors sound wonderfully yummy!
Great communication something different good and love this collaboration
This is amazing! I would love see see more of this format as well as more baking stuff, and I will be cheering the team the whole way!
