Hello everyone, welcome to our August newsletter!

For those of you who dont know, this is what I look like... and for some of you who do know - I hate having my picture taken, so you wont find many of me on my page!

Anyway, enough about me.Following on from the feedback we received from our last newsletter, we have decided to move away from the basic school newsletter format to a more glamourous magazine type format.

We have spent a lot of time on the design and presentation of this issue, and hope you like the more modern, fresh, updated look.

Baking ~ Decorating ~ Sharing is the Cake Masters motto, and we aim to deliver on each of these elements in everything we do through our Facebook page and magazine.

The aim of our monthly magazines are to highlight all cakey news over the last month; showcase your amazing cakes; include informative features and above all, sharing caking and baking knowledge!


See this newsletter as a bit of a round up, incase you might have missed something on Facebook- lets face it, I am not sure Facebook works all the time anyway- I am still having problems seeing my own posts let alone other post from pages I follow- boo!

I am in awe of all the caking and baking skill out there and I will do my best to shout out all the amazingly talented cakers by featuring you in my magazine.

Enjoy leafing through the featured wedding cake pages in this issue as there are some beautifully designed pieces and I really enjoyed putting this part of the magazine together.

Special thanks to all our contributors this month, especially Manisha Parmar from the Great British Bake Off, who gave us an exclusive interview for all Cake Masters fans.

Let me know what you think of our new look, I would love to hear from you!

4The Great British Bake Off

Obsession


Every Tuesday evening at 8pm the TV is mine for my GBBO fix.

There is nothing that gets in my way, and the most central spot on the sofa is reserved for me!

I am sure I am not the only one that behaves like this on Tuesday evenings, and I am positive that when each episode is over, a small void appears in your life, that not even a slice of cake could fill!

I love watching the contestants baking under immense pressure, producing awesome flavour combinations and gorgeous looking cakes.

Not sure if it is something that I would do...not sure that I work so well under that much pressure, and piercing blue eyes!

Over the next few pages we have gathered the details of the current contestants and have included their Twitter, Facebook and Blog links so that that you can stalk them online too :p

Manisha ParmarCAKE MASTERS MAGAZINE ~ AUGUST 2012

Great British Bake OffSeries 3 ~ Contestant

Tell me a bit about your passion for baking

Baking is like oa7ng on clouds, I nd it so relaxing, even when working with the most complicated of recipes!

Baking has become a passion for 8 or 9 years now. I remember when my mum showed me how to make my rst vanilla tray bake, and from then onwards Ive been baking something every weekend, ranging from very small items like biscuits or something huge like a yummy chocolate tart.

Tell me a bit about yourself background and family

In my family there is my Dad, two brothers and my sister who is now married. My mum past away 4 years ago... so life has been dicult and a bit lonely. This is where baking has turned my life around - it just brings me so much happiness even if it doesnt turn out absolutely perfect.

Other than baking what are your hobbies?

I love baking with children and I love going out with my friends and spending 7me with family. I am a lover of wine and all cake. What made you apply for the great Bri7sh bake o TV show?

Umm I actually dont know why I applied! Maybe because I had seen the programme before and thought I could do some of the bakes shown. At the 7me I felt quite condent and friends and family encouraged me so I was able to pluck up the courage to apply.

Did you ever think that you would make it through to the end stages?

Oh my cupcakes! Never in a million years did I think that I would be one of the 12 nalists out of 7000 people who applied.It was an amazing feeling that, YES, I am actually good at something.

What was the most exci7ng part about being part of the show?

I thought the most exci7ng part of the show was the lming. I absolutely loved it!

Even though the days were really long, I loved every minute!Standing side by side with Mary and Paul was such a delight, wai7ng in an7cipa7on for their replies a_er each bake was exci7ng but very nerve wracking.

Most people like to bake to relax, how did you nd it baking under pressure and interroga7on of the judges?

I love baking under pressure, however, some of the bakes were disastrous. The interroga7ons was quite nerve wracking. It is like your heart is in your mouth and you cant swallow!

However when they gave good comments it felt great, but when the bad comments came... you felt very sad...Con7nued >>>

Manishas Mum

What was the hardest part about being in the show?

The hardest part of the show was when things went wrong and not really being able to do anything about it.

What did you think of Mary and Paul?

Mary was lovely she really KNOWS her stu, very warm and loveable.

Paul... well he was just adorable! He was very honest and knows what he is talking about.

Which contestants did you get on with the most?

I got on really well with all the contestants.

John,Cathryn, Sarah-Jane and I, had a few nights together with the friendly help of Prosecco.

I am very fond of Ryan, who is one amazing baker with a lovely funny personality.

What are your current plans for now and the future?

My current plans are to nish my childcare degree. Although I would like to work for a famous well known chef as a baker.

I would also like to open up a Baking School for children, which would be great as baking can have a great inuence on children.

Next Week EPISODE 4The bakers face three challenges all designed for a sweet tooth.

Starting off with a tempting array of decadently rich tortes, the bakers then face the technical challenge. This time it's a mainstay of French baking, the crme caramel, and for some there's more wobble than expected.

Proceedings are rounded off with a mammoth six hour challenge to produce a mighty show stopping layered meringue. But who will claim the accolade of Star Baker and who will hang up their apron for the last time?

Step 4Mix your whitener and rejuvenating spirit(of vodka) together and lightly brush over your fondant which will bring the lace imprint to life.

It was quite a challenge when I was asked to do a seven foot tall cake by a travelling family.

The customer originally wanted the cake eight foot tall and four foot wide! My head started spinning and I said, I dont think that will t through our door,when the customer simply replied, Cant you 7lt the cake upwards?, I just looked at my mum in disbelief! You can imagine the visions going through my head at this point. I said that I was sorry, and that I cake that large would not work. Instead I suggested a seven foot cake(!), where I would do it in stages and set

up and nish o at the venue. The customer was very happy with the proposed idea and were very excited!

We agreed on a price and I then set to work. Fruit cake was for the base as sponge cakes around the base would be too so_ and would simply not hold the weight of cake above it. Sponge cakes were used for the top 7ers.

Every one that knows me, knows how organised I am! I phoned all the relevant suppliers and ordered all the equipment, boards and icing, leaving nothing to go amiss - everything was checked and double checked!

18

Firstly I had to bake the fruit cakes. The problem was that I didnt have a oven in the shop large enough to t the cakes! I asked a friend who I went to college with if I could use his oven in his bakery, he was only too happy to help.

I then had to make all the roses. As this was such a big cake, the roses had to correspond with the size of all the cakes. I thought that ve inch roses for the boiom 7er and four inch for the remaining 7ers would be the best.

I found covering the cake to be a challenge as it was so deep which made it very awkward, but a_er a bit of delibera7ng, I knew the icing would not cover in one piece so I came up with the idea to cover it in stages, rolling out strips of icing and placing the icing on the cake and carefully smoothing it out. I am a terrible perfec7onist so it had to be right as I hate seeing joins. It took, would you believe 65 kilos of marzipan and ivory coloured icing, guess you can now say I am now ocially a body builder!

A_er three extremely wide and high cakes I needed a cup of tea! My arms were like jelly a_er all that rolling out. The boioms of each of 7er were polystyrene dummies with cakes placed on top, this helped keep the weight down; I also baked a lighter fruit cake which also helped with keeping the overall weight of the cake down.

I had three specially made drum boards reinforced to take the weight of the cake. The customer

also wanted a spacer on the boiom of the cake so that she could have owers around the board where the cake was simng.

Luckily we have a large sugar cra_ shop and we have designed our own style of spacers, that have hard tops and so_ enough sides to place wires in them.

I did most of the decora5ng in the shop, using royal icing for a lot of the nishings, trying to keep it from looking tacky! The design itself was mostly my input... you dont want to know what she originally wanted... I tell you, it was tacky galore!

There were ve addi7onal sponge cakes to be placed round the base of the cake, Hazel , my sister and I worked together to get them covered with icing,

I used a number 4 tube to pipe swags under each rose, I then over piped with a number 3 tube. Most of the other designs on the cake was using a number 2 piping tube in order to give a more delicate look.

The part I enjoyed the most was the top. I loved doing the top vase as it was completely made out of sugar and the customer had le_ me to create it in my own way. I love it when the customer says this, and I can allow my imagina7on run wild. I was originally going to opt for just roses, but as I was half way through pumng the spray together, I wrapped some sugar paste around it and hey presto there it was, I cant tell you how pleased I was with the end result.

The day arrived for me to take the cake to the venue and it really was all hands on deck. As I was so busy, I got my mum Joan to dust the rest of the roses green, she looked like the jolly green giant when she had nished!

Jayson and Josh from the shop helped me carefully load the cake in to my van, it was so heavy. I needed two vehicles to carry everything as we had a lot of equipment and all the cakes, including the ve, 12 round sponge cakes; all the iced roses and petals, including the extra large reinforced drum boards.

See more of Roberts work at Wedding Cakes Liverpool or visit their online shop at http://www.centreattraction.co.uk/n_shop.php

When we arrived, we set to work at once. First I set the largest drum board which had owers all they way around it. We then placed the rst 7er on top of this. Next we placed the second 7er -it was so heavy, I was lucky to have Jayson and Josh there to help. The top 7er was placed by myself. I really thought the cake might collapse with all the weight!

All that was le_ to do was nish the cake with decora7ons. We had a good rou7ne going while I

stood on the table as Mum and Jayson passed me the nished owers and the crystal pearls.

Once nished, the customer agreed to view the cake at the venue. She was completely delighted with the cake and all the 7me and eort I had put into crea7ng her cake. I got a hug and was told she wanted another cake in two years 7me if the price was same, I NEARLY FAINTED!

Snake Cake Craze!So you must have seen this awesome cake from North Star Cakes- incredibly realistic, superb attention to detail and even a tweet from the Ace of Cakes man himself!

Is there anyone out there who hasnt seen this cake!? Photos of this cake have been shared right across the globe and we caught up with Francesca Pitcher, the creator to find out more.


27

Meet Francesca...

Tell us a bit about yourself...I trained as a ne ar7st with a specialism in pain7ng and sculpture. A_er leaving university I worked for a private art collector before moving into ne art auc7oneers. I feel privileged to have worked for a couple of the top ne art auc7oneers in the world based in London. I le_ the art world behind when I had my rst child, a daughter Claudia who is now six, and I have since had a son Dylan, three. During those late night baby feeds I used to watch 'Ace of Cakes', a fabulous TV cake show based in the US and wished I could have that job. I'd always made birthday cakes but it wasn't un7l last year that I started to take my cake making more seriously and tried to make as many cakes as I could to prac7ce my skills, in fact my daughter's Rapunzel birthday cake last July was my rst proper cake. My company North Star Cakes began trading in October 2011.

Tell us about North Star Cakes...North Star Cakes is a bespoke baking business, my client's tend come to me if they are looking for something unique and personal to them. I'm very par7cular about the ingredients I use as I rmly believe that great ingredients produce a great tas7ng cake. The cakes not only have to look beau7ful but the avour is equally important and should meet with expecta7ons. I also cater for food intolerances and some of my clients come to me specically for that reason. I'm very lucky to have a loyal clientele of repeat and referral business.

Tell us more about the cake and who it was for... The snake cake was made for my daughter Claudia, her birthday was on 29th July and she wanted to have a Halloween themed party and she wanted a cake to match the theme. I was racking my brain as to what I could make, then on a recent visit to the zoo I suggested a snake. She loved the idea, and when we got home we looked at images online and decided on a yellow snake - the Burmese that everyone now knows. The interest in the snake cake really took me by surprise- there was so much discussion about it and so many shares, I've no idea how many blogs, posts and newspapers its been in all over the world, I'm s7ll trying to nd them all. The buzz about the cake was overwhelming and the comments have been brilliant but the real high point for me was when Du Goldman of Charm City Cakes - the owner of the bakery in the 'Ace of Cakes' TV show tweeted out a picture of my cake on 7th August to his 40,000 followers with the word 'AMAZING!!!' - I joined twiier just to see it for myself!

The Battle of the MIXERS

KitchenAid vs.

Kenwood


31

Our opinion....CAKE MASTERS MAGAZINE ~ AUGUST 2012

I am still deciding which mixer to buy.

Can you believe it...I have never owned a stand mixer because I simply dont know which one I want. Before carrying out the research for this article, I felt that if I bought the Kenwood over the KitchenAid I would be disappointed when I got home...and vice versa!

Yes, I drive myself insane when going shopping! I am one of those people that will think about purchasing something...but then wont buy it- come home and be so annoyed at myself for not getting it! So enough about my weird shopping habits and back to mixers.

I scoured the internet for hours looking through many different reviews and reading through what seemed like thousands of testimonies on Amazon regarding personal customer experiences.

Having gone through so much content, it appeared to me that one mixer did come out slightly on top each time. I was on a mission to find out some of the differences and here is a summary of things that might help you choose which one you will go for, and YES ,I will be letting you know my final decision on the Kenwood vs KitchenAid debate.

KitchenAid Kenwood- Available in 28 colours- Retro look- Mixer bowl comes with a handle- Blender attachment needs to be bought separately- Used in pretty much all cooking shows on TV- just good product placement marketing though?-There are said to be complaints about after sales service with KitchenAid- Power cable sticks out of the machine- Expensive

- Mainly silver although the KMix is available in approximately 11 colours-Sleek modern design- Mixer bowl has no handle- Blender attachment comes included- Better customer services and easier to find parts for machines, even the ancient ones!- Power cable runs through the machine- Cheaper

So from the above, there isnt really much in it.

There isnt really anything there that makes one machine stand head and shoulders above the other.A lot of the reviews said that the first machine you start with, tends to be the machine you stay with forever.

However, the thing that pushed me more towards one machine over the other were the MANY reviews regarding people using Kenwood machines dating back to the 70s and 80s - even the 50s and were still going strong making the odd replacement for parts which are amazingly still readily available.

I think design is a big thing as the machines look so different. There was a lot of love hate going on in the reviews that I read and it is just down to personal preference.

I personally feel you get more value for your money with Kenwood, and I like the modern design over the retro look. Also that face that so many ancient machines are mixing away gives me some comfort of reliability.

Overall, I feel a sense of relief that I have made up my mind that it is KENWOOD all the way.
