So.... were they all worth $500???
first
HECK YEAH
first can i get a reply or like or something?
Hiii
Yes
I think the beauty of the first pumpkin cake is that it's still spooky without being gory. Which is especially useful if you're having a party for adults AND kids.
^^^. Cakes should be appetizing, not gross.
I completely agree! Spider pumpkins are cute!
Agreed! and it’s not fondant, WOW.
Yes! And also, I love that all of it is actually edible. I mean, I know fondant and rice-made structures are technically edible, but they are so gross lol. I feel weird when a LOT of the cake goes to the bin for the sake of ''decoration''
@@larihenriques yeah!
I actually prefer the silver cakeboard they went with for the last cake, simply for contrast reasons. The whole cake is already so dark that a black cakeboard probably would have been a bit much, and the silver is a great base that makes the black skulls on the bottom stand out way more than they would on a board in the same colour. So I personally think they made a good choice with that and with keeping it simple and plain because the actual cake is already so amazingly detailed. :)
i agree!! it isn't even obviously cakeboard, too
I agree with you.
Agreed!
I agree.. and I feel it gave like an Industrial metal type Vibe which went with the theme of the cake
It looked very dungeon floor to me
The skeleton sitting on the thrown cake is incredible. What I really liked, is that you would NEVER guess it is a cake!!!!
Throne
Grim reaper
If the skeleton sitting on a throne cake was at your Halloween party then that is what everyone would be talking about for months. ☠️🎉
@@sailorbrite I do agree with her comment. It would be hard to tell it wasn't a real halloween decoration (unless it was thrown across the room).
Its- ....it's....death
I know you don't want to ruin the artistry of the cakes, but I would love to see what parts of the cakes are edible and how they're structured.
I was hoping you'd take a chomp of spider leg, or slice into the axe handle. And how much of the skeleton one was made out of cake? The face, the scythe, the top of the throne? How did they get it all to stand up?
I already adore this series, but seeing you review and explain the more technical sides would make it even more fascinating!
I agree! I love knowing the Spider-pumpkin was completely edible
The mash up cake looked like it could have had a high percentage of edible parts as well.
I am very curious about the edibility of Death on his throne.
Any chance you could do an update?
I like to imagin Kevin had a chomp of one off the legs off camera. He did mention something about ot during filming.
@@LadyOfCrow Lol I can absolutely imagine that too!!! 😁
Propably only the base of the seat is cake.
I would guess the skulls are made of chocolate, not the one to eat, but the one you use to mold sculptures. So, technically edible, but very hard to actually eat. With the scythe I would also be interested what it's made of. I don't think it can be made of a lot of heavy material, otherwise it would've fallen or broken. Propably a wooden or plastic staff with cardboard at the end and fondant over it for the decoration.
@@FreyasArts That's pretty much what I was thinking too. The scythe head could be rice crispy treats under the fondant. I think it'd be light enough to stay aloft. I'll admit that while I'm impressed with the artistry of Death... it's a bit disappointing to think that it's most likely just a square layer cake... 🤷
I think Kevin is really the person who wins these…I would be so terrified to drive home with these 😂 props to you Kevin!
Edit: OMG thanks for so many likes! And replying! Love your channel!
Oh my gosh i didnt even think about that. That is so true .
LOL! Right! And some of the bakeries are over an hour and a half away!!
@@TheIcingArtist Wow that's a long way!
@@TheIcingArtist WOW! First of all…YOU REPLIED?!?!?! And second of all, I live outside of my city so it’s like a 20 minute drive to everything. AHHH I STILL CANT BELIEVE YOU REPLIED!!!!
@@TheIcingArtist OMG! Kuddos to kevin!
Sees first one omg that's so cool
The second cake comes out no this one is the best like the detail
Third cake reviled absolutely smashing all my expectations
When I heard that the first cake had icing instead of fondant I felt so relieved😅 I can't stand the taste and texture of fondant. It's a shame it's so over-used in "artistic" cakes just because it's relatively easy to use. Cakes are supposed to be eaten and enjoyed, not just looked at, so putting in a bit more effort with icing or chocolate can really make it great. (just my opinion here, I think it's great if someone else loves fondant)
Yeah I think it is ok when people use fondant for very detailed cakes that are for big events and photos but for regular old birthday cake I want to eat it not take pictures. I as well prefer icing or buttercream.
Just peel the fondant off, problem solved.
I agree if it’s a big event like a wedding or a big party for many people the cake needs to look good but like a small birthday party no need if that much stuff
Same I don’t like even normal fondant cakes, couldn’t imagine eating ones that have loads on them
If you pay for that extra effort and time to use something other than fondant to do artistic and detailed cakes, then they'd probably do it. It's easy to critique as someone who doesn't actually make cakes. Budget is a thing.
The best detail for me was on the ax cake. The foot and the hand had the actual jagged bone attached. I've never seen that done. If I'm paying attention to detail, that's my winner. But all 3 cakes were epic in their own way.
My fav was the third cake cause more than detail they had detail and the construction would have been so hard like making cake into a hand and stuff plus the skeleton face was so detailed so that’s my winter but all three are amazing
Same, loved all the stuff going on, on that second cake. That one was my favourite too. 😍
🙏🏽🙏🏽
The 2nd cake was the BEST. It is Halloween for crying out loud. For those complaining. If you'd don't want EPIC do not buy a Halloween-themed cake.
I love how their dog is ALWAYS sleeping on the sofa in their videos! And he’s so cute!
oh beautiful doog and cute too
Archie really does sleep a lot lol! @ArchieSleepsAlot on IG
He literally looks like a white pillow ...soo cute
the one thing i dont like about these artsy cakes is that i am always wondering "how much of all of this is actually cake? how much is actually delicious to eat? and how much is just decoration?" because to me if its cake i want to eat or serve it to my guests, and if 90% of it is not really something for ust to enjoy eating i feel like its not really worth it. But they are awesome and very well done. i liked the spider-pumpkin the most ♥
I agree! I kinda hate when a cake is advertized as completely edible but then 65% of it is just fondant and rice crispie.. especially as a person who can't stand fondant 😂 like yeah, you CAN eat it, but how good is it and is it what you expect when you hear "cake"?
I think if you're spending $500 on a cake you can probably specify how many people you're trying to feed with it and they'll take it into consideration. I'm guessing for these they just wanted them to go wild with decoration.
@@whatzittooya3873
I’m usually okay with a bit of fondant, but one time I got a cake that was *just* cake and fondant.
It tasted and felt like cardboard
I agree!!
Think it depends on why you get the cake too. It could be for a wow factor more than the cake. However, I agree that the cake should be good and most, if not all of it, should be edible.
Whoever is the head baker/head decorator(s) of the Grim Reaper cake has mad skills! This person or the team of people who does these cakes are awesome!
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Matthew 4:17 GOD LOVES AND BLESS YOU!!!✝✝✝
According to the comments, the person who did this cake also did the Zombie cake from the previous year... I think the channel is @artyoucaneat
My jaw hit the floor for all 3 of these cakes! As someone who doesn't really decorate anything, I didn't notice any of the flaws you pointed out but like you said, you had to go looking for things to critique. I love these types of videos so please keep them coming! I feel like I could almost taste that red velvet and spiced filling cake haha
the grim reaper cake with carrot cake is literally tough on the outside softie on the inside y/n would fall for lol
I couldn’t with the Y/N lol
Oh my gosh, does anyone else just love her energy, so cheery and happy. Makes my day better.
She talks way to fast. I'd like her videos so much more if she toned it down a little. I agree with Alf Elf.
@Alf Elf totally agree. I came so close to unsubscribing.
I love her energy, she is also super genuine
I do! Whenever I’m not in the best mood I’ll watch a couple of her videos to make me smile and uplift my energy.
@@aliehawhite8616 I know right!
Holly crap, those are amazing! Extra kudos for the bakery that didn't use fondant (I'm not really a fondant person), but they are all soooo beautiful!
The 3rd one was definitely the most epic, absolutely amazing. The details and little touchs were incredible. The 1st was was really cool and very impressive. The 2nd was cool as well the axe and the face was very impressive, but I thought it was it messy, it was to many ideas competing and fighting against each other but still very cool.
I’d say this is the best across the board challenge so far. They’re all amazing, but the first one is probably my favorite due to the use of icing over fondant and the fact that everything, including the spider legs, was edible.
Are these cakes worth $500? Oh heck yeah! The last two especially I would have thought would have cost more than $500!
Hi! I think by now these bakeries know they are baking for you.
A: Kevin pick them every time and B: The amount you pay them with complete freedom to create! C: They must have watched
Your videos and reviews! Give more bakeries or cake artist these chances to avoid monotonous!
loved the video, but I was thinking the same thing all throughout it
I agree I don’t know why she keeps using the same ones
I believe Laurie said before that there are only a handful of options in her area of bakers with the ability and expertise to create these kind of cakes
Kevin already has to travel upto an hour and a half away to collect these so I don’t think they could reasonably make the catchment area much bigger
It’s hard to find people with this kind of talent, most bakeries couldn’t provide cakes like these x
Omg I love the pumpkin spider cake!! It’s amazing!!! The third cake is sooo detailed! My favorite!!!!!
Hello 👋 how are you doing today..
Honestly, this is the first time I like all 3 cakes and think they are all worth $500+
They all knocked it out of the park.
The grim reaper cake is freaking amazing! If I was a professional baker I would probably charge more than $500 for that. They were all super cool though.
P.S. Kevin was closer with guessing scepter… sorry lol
holy moly these cakes were insane but i have only one question:
*what are you gonna do with all that cake??*
Eat it??
Maybe freeze and/or eat and share with friends and neightboors, I think and hope everything gets eaten
My question as well.
I believe she said In previous videos she does give away to friends and family
I think for these she'd make a real sensation bringing it to a soup kitchen kind of place, where people go to eat when they have nothing and nowhere. Wouldn't it be great if people had something like these cakes as a treat for the eyes as well as for the mouth?
I just love seeing people's creativity at work. They are all amazing, but my favourite is the group creation with the foot, ghost face and axe. It makes no sense, but is still so very Halloweeny.
I think this might be the best video in this series so far. Amazing cakes and so diverse. Even though the pumpkin spider is smallest, I liked it the most. Sort of Harry Potter vibes.
I really liked the pumpkin spider the best as well for some reason although I can’t explain why. Lol
Oh man didn’t know you were doing another one of these! This kind of video is my favorite!!
I think this is the best of the series yet. Usually, there is at least one cake that is very underwhelming, but they all were absolutely amazing!
4:50 omg the amount of talent the people in this bakery has has no limits. Masterpiece
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Matthew 4:17 GOD LOVES AND BLESS YOU!!!✝✝✝
I adore all 3. The first one is simple but still the right level of creepy, the second one has so many elements that they managed to gel together fantastically, and the third one looks just like an elaborate decoration that you'd see in the coolest haunted house
Like wow! They have become more epic each time. Love seeing these bakers different concepts.
The face escaping from the cake was the best detail imo. If i saw that irl i would be screaming lol😭😂
I was blown away by the artistry of all three! But for me, number one is the choice simply because I could cut it without guilt. The other two, especially the second, I wouldn’t know how to begin. Also, what do you do with that giant ax? Finally, I am not a huge fan of eating fondant.
exactly, what do you actually get to eat from all of those?
I agree with the fondant comment. They did great with the icing, and I would really appreciate not having fondant to deal with.
Edit: And I love that everything is edible even if the legs were pulling a bit.
These are my absolute favorite type of videos!!! The 2nd one was my favorite!!!💜💜
Love your videos, but loved this video even more. So awesome of you to bring your Editor on screen! Editors are truly unsung heroes. From one Editor to another, thank you!!
This may be an odd compliment, but I feel you have this awesome way of incorporating sponsors, it feel seamless. I enjoy the evolution of your channel! ⭐
I LOVE THESE VIDEOS SO MUCH!!!!!!!! These cakes are amazing this time!! I would have never ever thought that they would do things like this! They are so talented!
They are all amazing, but that third cake is INCREDIBLE!!! Winner in my book.
Kudos that is probably the best-integrated ad/product placement I have seen in a video ever.
These might be the most epic amazing 'give bakeries money and see what they do' cakes ever! I had to go re-watch last year's Halloween video for comparison, those were great but these are all just next-level awesome. I love how each cake was progressively more extreme/breathtaking/surprising, it made the video so much fun to watch!
Pumpkin spider is my favorite. The others were cool but didn't look appetizing.
i don’t think they’re supposed to look appetizing it’s scary halloween cakes lmao
I think out of the like 50 different bakeries you have used, you have finally narrowed it down to the top 3. Everything they do is amazing.
Omg, I was so excited to see a second Halloween cake video! Thanks!
Those are so AMAZING!!!! I LOVED the last one. I can not believe that's a cake! I also just thought the spider pumpkin was so cute and clever.
That grim reaper is insane 😍 so much detail and planning must of went into that one.
Mad props to the first one for the Buttecream. The 2nd one had me grinning thinking about how I want to recreate it. The 3rd one, I wouldn't even try to recreate. That is one bad ass cake. Amazing
Yessss!! I’ve been waiting for another video like this 👏🏼👏🏼 😁
Wow, the Grim Reaper cake?! I have no words....just, wow!
I love these types of vids especially the Halloween ones last years were amazing can’t wait to see these ones I would love to see you make a scary 3D one lol Xx
oh holy shit. That last cake, while technically more simple than the others just looks better and more put together. Also huge.
I've been off grid basically since late Sept. First thing I did back online was check the 2021 Halloween cakes. Your bakers did not disappoint!! Thank you for your comparison videos; they're as epic as Halloween cake #3!
I LOVE THIS TYPE OF VIDEO SO STANKIN MUCH
To the 1% who’s reading this: I hope you and your loved ones stay safe and healthy in this hard time, have a blessed day ! 🌤
Amen and the same prayers right back to you ☀️🤲
No
Structurally, the skull one was on a completely different level. Impressed
I love this series, and this video might be my favorite. All the cakes were so good this time!!
I love, love LOVE the third cake! It's AWESOME! Happy Halloween!!!
Love the Reaper cake. That wicked
Totally love the Halloween theme cakes. They are always so creative
Epic is definitely the word for those cakes! I think worth the $500, so much detail and work. Those bakers are true artist and I would not be disappointed in any of them. The last one was my favorite though. Also, I wonder if the bakeries are getting wise to you and stepping up their game, knowing they will be on youtube. I know you don't say their names, but maybe they know anyway.
I was thinking that too, about the bakeries catching on. I'd work extra hard knowing I'd be online, even anonymously.
yup i'm pretty sure they know, I've noticed the bakeries/artists post about these videos
There’s something so cool about cake decorating. It’s essentially temporary art which makes you appreciate it more
I think all three of those cakes are beyond BEYOND amazing! Do these bakeries know you critique their cakes? I'm just blown away by all three of them. I love all of the bakery-comparison vids. I want to come to your house and eat all of those cakes with you!
That last one is award-winning worthy! I think its time to shout out the amazing bakery that kills it every time!
Haha I love Laurie and Kevin’s banter 😂
I’m with the editor regarding the Sheath VS Sceptre argument. IT’S A TIE!
10:10
They are all soo good! I would say the 1st one was creepy in a good way, the second one was so detailed, and the third was a show stopper!
Yay-these are my favorite vids to binge. Better than most baking shows :)
Hard to choose. I would love the chocolate legs of the first cake and the fact that there isn't so much fondant.
Cake #3 the Grim Reaper is amazing for it's virtuosity. I wonder how much of it is actually edible.
So cake #2 is my favorite. I usually wouldn't go for a cake with so many different details and themes but there is a Halloween song "The Monster Mash" and this cake embodies that completely.
I wanted to see her eat the part of the spider pumpkin leg that fell off. Those cakes are absolutely amazingly incredible. I loved them all. What does she do with all that cake? Time to have a Halloween party!!!
I just love your videos…I was upset as I failed a test, but the minute I watched your video, I feel soooooo happy. Thank you for making these videos❤️❤️❤️
Loving these cake contests videos, keep on bringing more
when you’re doing these you should ask them to make it a specific flavor cause it’s harder to judge the taste of 3 different flavored cakes, especially when one is a flavor you dislike
I wish you would break the parts of the cake down so we know what each part is made of,also love your content
Was so happy when I saw a new Halloween cake video in my feed!!
I loveeeee these videos! I cannot handle that grim reaper cake omg talk about next level
Heyy
So we all know that u are a really really skilled cake maker so why don't u try to recreate one of the caked from this series?? Like Christmas is coming up so u could recreate one of ur Christmas cake that u got. MAYBE
LY ♥️
Am I the only one who would love to see a “cutesy” Halloween cake? Anyone else not a horror fan?🤣
These are amazing regardless though!😍
can't believe its been 1 year allready, time goes by fast when your in the city with the longest lockdown. love watching the videos makes this lockdown easier :) thank you :D
I love your videos!!! Keep up the good work!!
This is the first video where I feel like all the cakes could have been worth $500 or more. The Grim Reaper cake is definitely my favorite
The bakery who did the second cake is SO talented when it comes to detail
I seriously love that bakery from the last cake. I love the other ones they've done too, they are really skilled.
I can only imagine what they'd do with an even higher budget.
Soooooo happy to see you did another Halloween episode!!!
My favorite is the second cake: I love the is mish-mash theme that somehow pulls together perfectly. The first cake is what I would want for a classy Halloween party/cake. But I still don’t understand how they got the chair back so dang tall on the third cake!?! (And for it to survive transport!)
This is what my Friday is missing...thank you so so much for posting. Instant happiness 😁
I really really like theee series make sure to make more in future ❤️
I live for these videos!!! They are my faveeee❤️❤️❤️❤️
so excited for this one!
edit: those three cakes were so amazing! Halloween seems to bring out people's imagination :)
The 2nd and third one i feel like i would never eat and just put it in my room as a decoration 🤯🤯
Wow all 3 cakes looked incredible! Those bakeries went above and beyond😍😍
Just found your channel yesterday and have watched maybe 6-8 episodes...this by far is my favorite. These cakes were all next level. Especially grim reaper and the team mash up cake. Beautiful cakes!
You should give money to 3 bakeries to do a Squid Games thence cake. It would be so interesting to see what they come up with. Like to give this idea a vote 😀
That second cake! Worth every penny. Someone worked hard and put their heart into it. Respect.
These just went from great to unbelievable! Just, wow!
Whoua !! This is the best creation that I've seen in your channel so far! Incredibly beautiful 😍
I would love to have the 3rd cake in my hallway, just staring at people. It would avoid people, and I would enjoy a delicious spice carrot cake!!!
I’m getting a custom zombie themed cake for my sixteenth (this Thursday) I can’t wait to see what the guy has made, he’s made us a few custom cakes before and they look and taste incredible, for my thirteenth he made me a crime scene cake and it was awesome it even had a tiny bloody knife on it
All three of these are perfection. Wow 💕🎃
I can’t believe how fast one year went by. I started watching you just about that time. Happy Halloween
Sometime you should have Kevin try to design and decorate a cake just to see how much he’s learned from you over the years!!
I’d love to see that!! I can just hear Laurie laughing and them going back and forth about the funniest things lol.
This is a fantastic idea
For the skeleton, you said “Can you imagine if you just had this as a Halloween decoration? Now consider the fact that it’s edible!” The baker probably COULD sell that design to be made into actual decorations and make a lot of money from it.
love that your eyeshadow matches the ends of your hair
I absolutely love your channel!!!
