ACE OF CAKES IS IN HAWAII.......

ALOHA!
Welcome to your Aloha Friday! This week has been crazy busy. I have been trying to get ready for the Green Living Expo and some events that I have over the weekend. I also am going to start a very busy month starting Sunday. I am stoked but crazed at the moment.
On Thursday we took some time out to go and be a part of ACE OF CAKES. That's right, Duff and his crew are here this week filming the last episode of season six of Ace Of Cakes on
The Food Network. If you are not familiar with this show you must get out of the rock your living under.......no, i understand sometimes we can not always to get to watch TV. I DVR all my shows....
Anyway, The Charm City Cake Crew is in Hawaii this week to make a cake for LOST (the TV show). We can't tell you what the cake is for or what it looks like. You will all have to wait to watch the last show of this season to see what the cake is.
I can tell you another reason they are here was to give back to the military community. They wanted to supply the Army with a cake to say thanks for all the hard work and the sacrifice that those men and women make everyday.
The whole cake crew was here. The doors opened at 2 pm and 500 people flooded into Tropics on Scholfeild Army Base. The cameras were ready , the stage was set and the people were excited and waiting to see what Duff and his crew had up their sleeves. We all know that these talented cake designers always have something very unusual to show.
The crew got up to say some words of praise and thanks to all the people. They finally reveled the cake and it was a Black hawk Helicopter. Very detailed, very neat and clean lines, it was perfect. But the best part the cake had LED lights.....and then the propeller was spinning. That's awesome. We light up cakes all the time the same way but I have always wanted to make a cake spin. It was awesome.
I have come in contact with a lot of people from actors to musicians and even other top notch pastry chefs and cake designers. And I have to say that Duff, Geoff, Mary Alice and all the others were super nice and down to earth. Very normal nice people. And that's rare once people begin to become famous and make money. You would never know from these guys that were famous and their popularity growing.
If you had the chance to watch Ace of Cakes tonight, very ironic that they had a Hawaiian, Tiki Bar cake on the show! It was cool.
Enjoy these pictures if you could not be there for the taping. I know we were stoked to have that chance.
