[opening theme music playing]

00:00:10,719 --> 00:00:12,971
This is a bowling ball.
3
00:00:13,054 --> 00:00:15,515
And this is a cake.

00:00:16,099 --> 00:00:17,017
[gasping]
5
00:00:18,143 --> 00:00:20,729
-What?
-How do you make clothes outta cake?
6
00:00:21,438 --> 00:00:23,523
-One of these is a cake?
-It's Five.
7
00:00:23,606 --> 00:00:24,983
-You think One?
-Number One.
8
00:00:25,066 --> 00:00:27,360
-[man] What if we don't choose?
-[screams]
9
00:00:28,153 --> 00:00:29,738
-Let's find out.
-It's a cake!
10
00:00:29,821 --> 00:00:31,281
The suspense. Cut it!
11
00:00:31,865 --> 00:00:33,742
-[host] It's cake!
-[cheering]
12
00:00:35,452 --> 00:00:37,746
It's time to bake!
13
00:00:38,496 --> 00:00:42,250
Welcome to a very different kind
of baking competition.
14
00:00:43,209 --> 00:00:45,920
We found nine amazing cake artists .
15
00:00:46,004 --> 00:00:47,881
By day, I'm a working mom.
16
00:00:47,964 --> 00:00:50,759
And by night, fool people with cake magic.
17
00:00:50,842 --> 00:00:52,969
-Like psychological warfare, right?
-Exactly.
18
00:00:53,053 --> 00:00:54,804
Justin, the kid.
19
00:00:54,888 --> 00:00:58,933
I'm only 18. I'm still in high school.
I didn't even graduate yet.
20
00:00:59,017 --> 00:01:00,393
[host] Tassel on the right.
21
00:01:00,477 --> 00:01:05,774
These talented bakers create
mind-altering, hyper-realistic cakes.
22
00:01:05,857 --> 00:01:07,859
They literally all look like burgers.
23
00:01:07,942 --> 00:01:09,861
You gotta be a little weird to do this.
24
00:01:09,944 --> 00:01:10,862
I love it.
25
00:01:10,945 --> 00:01:13,615
[host] Their goal? To fool our judges.
26
00:01:13,698 --> 00:01:15,950
You guys tricked us too hard on this one.
27
00:01:16,034 --> 00:01:20,747
[host] In each episode , the winning baker
could take home up to $10,000.
28
00:01:20,830 --> 00:01:21,915
[woman] That's cake!
29
00:01:21,998 --> 00:01:23,583
You guys are so nice!
30
00:01:23,666 --> 00:01:25,668
[host] In the end, the three best bakers
31
00:01:25,752 --> 00:01:29,798
will compete for a grand prize of $50,000.

-[woman] Oh my gosh!
33
00:01:31,758 --> 00:01:34,511
Yes, that's right.
They gave an idiot a machete.
34
00:01:35,386 --> 00:01:38,306
And I'm about to ask the most
important question…
35
00:01:39,224 --> 00:01:40,391
[gasping]
36
00:01:40,975 --> 00:01:42,352
Is It Cake ?

00:01:44,104 --> 00:01:47,232
[funky music playing]

41
00:01:52,570 --> 00:01:57,450
Welcome to Is It Cake?
42
00:01:59,369 --> 00:02:00,453
I'm Mikey Day.

[cheering]
44
00:02:02,413 --> 00:02:04,707
I can tell you're moderately excited.
45
00:02:04,791 --> 00:02:09,170
Now, you are all here
because you are all amazingly talented
46
00:02:09,254 --> 00:02:13,091
at making cakes
that look like everyday objects.
47
00:02:13,174 --> 00:02:16,302
And now, that incredibly specific skill…
48
00:02:16,386 --> 00:02:17,762
[laughing]
49
00:02:17,846 --> 00:02:20,223
…can earn you thousands of dollars.
50
00:02:20,306 --> 00:02:21,975
-[whooping]
-Yes!
51
00:02:22,058 --> 00:02:24,978
To determine which three of you
will bake today,
52
00:02:25,061 --> 00:02:29,440
we are going to test your cake knowledge
in a different way.
53
00:02:29,524 --> 00:02:33,611
So, let's see who can Find That Cake.
54
00:02:39,993 --> 00:02:44,455
When the cake wall spins around,
it will reveal six different types of…
55
00:02:46,583 --> 00:02:47,750
fast food.
56
00:02:47,834 --> 00:02:49,043
[gasping]
57
00:02:49,127 --> 00:02:52,255
Five of them are real,
and one of them is cake.
58
00:02:53,047 --> 00:02:56,050
Let's see who can Find That Cake.
59
00:02:57,719 --> 00:02:59,387
All right, each of you has a keypad.
60
00:02:59,470 --> 00:03:02,599
You will have 20 seconds
to lock in your answer.
61
00:03:02,682 --> 00:03:05,476
The first three bakers
to correctly identify the cake
62
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,522
hiding amongst the real fast food
will compete today.
63
00:03:10,315 --> 00:03:13,193
Your 20 seconds starts now!

[Mikey] Fifteen seconds!
67
00:03:26,998 --> 00:03:28,791
I'm gonna keep yelling at you.
68
00:03:32,712 --> 00:03:33,963
Ten seconds!
69
00:03:39,344 --> 00:03:41,804
Five, four,
70
00:03:42,805 --> 00:03:47,310
three, two, one.
71
00:03:48,061 --> 00:03:48,978
[bell dinging]
72
00:03:49,062 --> 00:03:51,022
[Mikey imitates buzzer] Time's up.
73
00:03:52,398 --> 00:03:54,651
Let's find out how you guys did.
74
00:03:56,736 --> 00:03:58,863
They gave me a sword to do this.
75
00:03:58,947 --> 00:04:00,240
[laughing]
76
00:04:00,323 --> 00:04:01,783
Zero safety training with it.
77
00:04:01,866 --> 00:04:05,453
They literally just said, "You'll be using
a sword. Uh, there it is."
78
00:04:05,536 --> 00:04:07,455
-Andrew.
-Yes?
79
00:04:07,538 --> 00:04:09,499
-You seem confident.
-I do!
80
00:04:09,582 --> 00:04:12,043
You picked Number Six.
81
00:04:12,126 --> 00:04:13,836
[nervously] I did…
82
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,048
All right, let's find out. Is it cake?
83
00:04:17,131 --> 00:04:20,134
[tense music playing]
84
00:04:21,177 --> 00:04:23,096
[groaning]
85
00:04:23,179 --> 00:04:25,390
That is not cake.
86
00:04:25,473 --> 00:04:26,641
Oh!
87
00:04:26,724 --> 00:04:28,268
That is a taco.
88
00:04:28,351 --> 00:04:30,687
-So, April.
-Yup.
89
00:04:30,770 --> 00:04:32,355
You picked Number Four.
90
00:04:32,438 --> 00:04:35,650
-[bakers groan]
-The breakfast croissant sandwich.
91
00:04:35,733 --> 00:04:36,609
[April] Mm-hm.
92
00:04:36,693 --> 00:04:39,195
Why do you think this is cake?
93
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,449
Because a croissant has a flakier crust
on the top.
94
00:04:43,533 --> 00:04:45,827
And I couldn't see a lot of flakiness.
95
00:04:45,910 --> 00:04:47,370
[Mikey] That makes sense.
96
00:04:47,453 --> 00:04:50,832
Let's find out if this is cake.
97
00:04:50,915 --> 00:04:54,210
[tense music playing]
98
00:04:56,838 --> 00:04:59,132
-That is…
-Wow, it's frozen cake.

[laughing]
100
00:05:00,258 --> 00:05:02,010
[Mikey] That's a croissant sandwich.
101
00:05:02,093 --> 00:05:04,804
And it's a nasty croissant sandwich.
102
00:05:04,887 --> 00:05:05,805
[laughing]
103
00:05:06,472 --> 00:05:07,807
-Jonny.
-Yes?
104
00:05:07,890 --> 00:05:09,225
[Mikey] You picked Three.
105
00:05:09,309 --> 00:05:12,645
[hesitates] It…
looks a little cake-ish to me.
106
00:05:12,729 --> 00:05:14,230
-Also--
-[laughs] Wait.
107
00:05:14,314 --> 00:05:16,482
-Yeah?
-Is that an official term? Cake-ish?
108
00:05:16,566 --> 00:05:17,817
Yeah, yes, definitely.
109
00:05:17,900 --> 00:05:19,986
It's just kind of an instinctual thing?
110
00:05:20,069 --> 00:05:20,987
[nervously] It is.
111
00:05:21,070 --> 00:05:22,238
[laughing]
112
00:05:22,322 --> 00:05:23,865
-Jonny!
-You know when a teacher--
113
00:05:23,948 --> 00:05:25,074
[imitating] "It is."
114
00:05:25,158 --> 00:05:27,994
You know when a teacher is like,
"Why'd you answer that?"
115
00:05:28,077 --> 00:05:30,872
I just want you to cut the damn cake,
you know what I mean?
116
00:05:31,914 --> 00:05:33,166
"Just cut the damn cake!"
117
00:05:33,750 --> 00:05:37,128
"We don't want to hear your jokes.
We get it. Cut the cake."
118
00:05:38,921 --> 00:05:42,008
All right. Moment of truth. Is it cake?
119
00:05:42,091 --> 00:05:46,929
[tense music playing]
120
00:05:47,722 --> 00:05:49,932
[Mikey] Yes, dude.
121
00:05:50,016 --> 00:05:51,267
[clapping]
122
00:05:51,351 --> 00:05:52,518
[Mikey] That's cake.
123
00:05:52,602 --> 00:05:54,687
Your big talk was justified.
124
00:05:54,771 --> 00:05:55,855
You found the cake.
125
00:05:55,938 --> 00:05:58,024
So, you get to bake today,
126
00:05:58,107 --> 00:06:01,736
with the only other
two bakers who could find the cake.
127
00:06:02,445 --> 00:06:03,279
Shing!
128
00:06:03,363 --> 00:06:05,948
Hemu and Sam!
129
00:06:06,032 --> 00:06:07,950
You will be baking with Jonny today.
130
00:06:08,534 --> 00:06:09,994
Yay!
131
00:06:10,078 --> 00:06:14,123
The three of you will be competing
for up to $10,000.
132
00:06:14,207 --> 00:06:17,960
The rest of you,
you gotta go to the gallery,
133
00:06:18,461 --> 00:06:21,881
which is roughly three feet
from where you're standing.
134
00:06:21,964 --> 00:06:25,802
You will get a chance to bake.
It's just not today.
135
00:06:25,885 --> 00:06:29,013
All right! My three little kitties.
136
00:06:29,972 --> 00:06:35,144
One of you could win up to $10,000
when we play Is It Cake?
137
00:06:40,316 --> 00:06:42,360
Okay, bakers.
Here's how you play the game.
138
00:06:42,443 --> 00:06:46,239
You're each gonna be making
a cake replica of the item you choose.
139
00:06:46,322 --> 00:06:48,324
They don't need to be identical,
140
00:06:48,408 --> 00:06:50,827
but they do need to fool the three judges
141
00:06:50,910 --> 00:06:53,830
that we have invited
to try and spot your fakes.
142
00:06:53,913 --> 00:06:55,373
When you're done with your cake,
143
00:06:55,456 --> 00:06:57,834
you'll be able to place it on these
podiums out here
144
00:06:57,917 --> 00:07:00,420
with four other similar items.
145
00:07:00,503 --> 00:07:03,965
Sam, you were the fastest
to find the cake,
146
00:07:04,048 --> 00:07:07,427
so you pick first
from any of these fast food items.
147
00:07:07,510 --> 00:07:09,262
Okay, I'm gonna go with Number Two.
148
00:07:09,345 --> 00:07:11,931
-[Mikey] The cheeseburger!
-[Sam] Yeah.
149
00:07:12,014 --> 00:07:13,224
Why did you choose this?
150
00:07:13,307 --> 00:07:15,101
I've made it a couple times,
151
00:07:15,184 --> 00:07:18,062
so I feel like I can do it
in the amount of time.
152
00:07:18,146 --> 00:07:19,063
-Yeah?
-We'll see.
153
00:07:19,147 --> 00:07:23,609
Hemu, you got the second fastest time,
so you pick next.
154
00:07:23,693 --> 00:07:24,819
I'll go with the Four.
155
00:07:24,902 --> 00:07:28,948
Ooh, the croissant, bacon and egg.
156
00:07:29,031 --> 00:07:34,454
And last but not least,
Mr. "Just Cut the Damn Cake"…
157
00:07:34,537 --> 00:07:35,830
-[laughing]
-…Jonny.
158
00:07:36,581 --> 00:07:38,291
I think I'll go Six, the tacos.
159
00:07:38,374 --> 00:07:41,669
Interesting choice. Bold. Very Jonny.
160
00:07:41,752 --> 00:07:43,337
[laughing]
161
00:07:43,421 --> 00:07:45,214
Bakers, it's time to make your cakes.
162
00:07:45,298 --> 00:07:46,966
So head on over to the kitchen.

164
00:07:49,469 --> 00:07:51,888
Go, Sam! Go, Jonny! Go, Hemu!
165
00:07:51,971 --> 00:07:55,308
You guys are just gonna sit and watch them
for hours.
166
00:07:55,391 --> 00:07:56,350
Yes.
167
00:07:56,976 --> 00:07:59,645
Welcome to the kitchen.
168
00:08:00,229 --> 00:08:03,483
You have eight hours
to complete your cakes.
169
00:08:04,775 --> 00:08:06,486
[echoing] It's time to bake!
170
00:08:07,445 --> 00:08:09,155
[upbeat music playing]
171
00:08:09,238 --> 00:08:10,281
[man] Come on, Hemu.
172
00:08:10,364 --> 00:08:11,365
[woman] Go Jonny.
173
00:08:13,701 --> 00:08:15,328
[Andrew] Oh, so exciting!
174
00:08:15,912 --> 00:08:18,664
I don't understand the sprinkles.
I don't get it.
175
00:08:18,748 --> 00:08:20,583
She better be doing a confetti cake.
176
00:08:20,666 --> 00:08:22,001
Are you doing a funfetti?
177
00:08:22,084 --> 00:08:25,087
-What else would I be doing with them?
-Now, see?
178
00:08:25,171 --> 00:08:29,175
A funfetti cake
is like a fluffy vanilla cake
179
00:08:29,258 --> 00:08:30,635
with a cream cheese frosting.
180
00:08:30,718 --> 00:08:34,847
And the sprinkles added into it
gives it a little subtle crunch.
181
00:08:34,931 --> 00:08:37,475
Then the vanilla buttercream
brings it all together.
182
00:08:37,558 --> 00:08:39,727
Also funfetti for a cheeseburger, like,
183
00:08:39,810 --> 00:08:42,980
it's fun to cut through stuff
and see colors and sprinkles.
184
00:08:43,064 --> 00:08:46,943
People are always surprised if a cake
that's super realistic tastes good.
185
00:08:47,026 --> 00:08:49,028
But it should.
It should always taste good.
186
00:08:49,111 --> 00:08:50,321
The sugar is heavy.
187
00:08:50,404 --> 00:08:51,447
Yeah, it is.
188
00:08:51,531 --> 00:08:54,408
When I think of all
the realistic cakes I've made,
189
00:08:54,492 --> 00:08:58,162
my favorite are the ones
that aren't your typical cake.
190
00:08:58,246 --> 00:09:01,249
Like the oysters. Or like, a cheeseboard.
191
00:09:01,332 --> 00:09:03,584
Most people haven't seen that
turned into a cake.
192
00:09:03,668 --> 00:09:06,170
But, I make fast food cakes all the time.
193
00:09:06,254 --> 00:09:10,007
So, this is in my element. I got this.
194
00:09:10,716 --> 00:09:12,510
[Sam] Jonny, do you like the taco?
195
00:09:13,094 --> 00:09:14,887
-I live a very blessed life.
-Yeah.
196
00:09:14,971 --> 00:09:16,931
I can't complain, "Oh, I got a taco?"
197
00:09:17,014 --> 00:09:18,516
-[Sam] Yeah.
-"Oh, woe is me."
198
00:09:19,100 --> 00:09:20,851
I've made a giant taco cake,
199
00:09:20,935 --> 00:09:24,730
but it was at the very beginning
of my time sculpting cakes.
200
00:09:24,814 --> 00:09:29,485
And I'm gonna have to really figure out
how to square everything down,
201
00:09:29,569 --> 00:09:30,736
so it's bite-size.
202
00:09:30,820 --> 00:09:33,406
Jonny, what you got going on over there?
203
00:09:33,489 --> 00:09:35,074
[Jonny] Some butter, some sugar.
204
00:09:35,157 --> 00:09:38,661
It's really important that
the cake is first and foremost delicious.
205
00:09:39,245 --> 00:09:41,831
And the cake in my taco
is a vanilla butter cake
206
00:09:41,914 --> 00:09:46,002
with a cookie crunch,
chocolate ganache, and a hazelnut spread.
207
00:09:46,586 --> 00:09:50,131
I'm a baker and content creator
at Jonny Cakes.
208
00:09:50,214 --> 00:09:53,593
Jonny Cakes is partially a bakery,
209
00:09:53,676 --> 00:09:56,429
but I'm not just pumping out
a bunch of cakes every day.
210
00:09:56,512 --> 00:10:00,266
I specialize in individual
sculpted projects.
211
00:10:00,349 --> 00:10:03,936
And then I film everything I do
and put it on the internet.
212
00:10:04,020 --> 00:10:07,356
This is the first cake I ever made.
And this is my most recent cake.
213
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,860
The lesson is with a lot of hard work
and determination,
214
00:10:10,943 --> 00:10:13,404
you can still be a disappointment
to your parents.
215
00:10:13,487 --> 00:10:15,489
What I do is the weirdest thing
in the world.
216
00:10:15,573 --> 00:10:17,366
There are people saving lives,
217
00:10:17,450 --> 00:10:20,161
and I am making cake look like
other things.
218
00:10:22,705 --> 00:10:24,498
[Sam] Y'all! I'm in the oven.
219
00:10:24,582 --> 00:10:26,167
[cheering]
220
00:10:26,250 --> 00:10:27,460
Are you already baking?
221
00:10:27,543 --> 00:10:28,419
Yeah.
222
00:10:28,502 --> 00:10:29,670
Me as well!
223
00:10:29,754 --> 00:10:31,672
-[Andrew] You're baking, too?
-Yeah.
224
00:10:31,756 --> 00:10:34,091
Hemu, what flavor are you making?
225
00:10:34,175 --> 00:10:35,968
[Hemu] It's a vanilla sponge cake
226
00:10:36,052 --> 00:10:38,929
with Swiss meringue,
strawberry buttercream.
227
00:10:39,013 --> 00:10:41,891
I'm the owner of Hemu's Sweet Sensations.
228
00:10:41,974 --> 00:10:44,977
I do sculpted cakes, realistic cakes,
229
00:10:45,061 --> 00:10:46,604
all kind of custom cakes.
230
00:10:46,687 --> 00:10:48,356
Anything you could think of.
231
00:10:48,856 --> 00:10:51,609
I think Hemu's is gonna be the hardest.
232
00:10:51,692 --> 00:10:54,028
How is she gonna get that flake
on the croissant?
233
00:10:54,111 --> 00:10:55,446
[Andrew] She doesn't-- Yeah.
234
00:10:55,529 --> 00:10:57,323
I have never made a croissant before,
235
00:10:57,406 --> 00:11:00,451
and I have never
made a croissant cake sandwich.
236
00:11:00,534 --> 00:11:02,036
It's totally new for me.
237
00:11:02,119 --> 00:11:03,204
[laughs]
238
00:11:03,287 --> 00:11:06,749
-I never eat bacon and ham and cheese.
-Are you a vegetarian?
239
00:11:06,832 --> 00:11:10,294
I'm like chicken, white-meat person.
That's it.
240
00:11:10,378 --> 00:11:13,089
I get into baking because of my son.
241
00:11:13,172 --> 00:11:16,801
He asked me, "Can you make me
a fire truck cake?"
242
00:11:16,884 --> 00:11:19,595
After doing the fire truck cake
for my son,
243
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,098
everything started with word-of-mouth.
244
00:11:22,181 --> 00:11:24,684
And I started getting orders right away.
245
00:11:24,767 --> 00:11:29,438
I have won a lot of cake competitions.
And I always like to win. [laughs]
246
00:11:30,564 --> 00:11:35,945
[upbeat music playing]
247
00:11:37,029 --> 00:11:39,073
[Jonny] When making realistic cakes,
248
00:11:39,156 --> 00:11:43,160
it's super important that your cake layers
are stable and can be carved,
249
00:11:43,244 --> 00:11:45,287
because they have to hold their shape.
250
00:11:45,371 --> 00:11:48,332
Sometimes, you can have
the most delicious cake in the world,
251
00:11:48,416 --> 00:11:51,419
but it falls apart
as soon as you start cutting into it.
252
00:11:51,919 --> 00:11:54,880
We want it to hold its shape,
like it's a piece of art.
253
00:11:58,551 --> 00:12:01,470
Sam? We officially think
you have the upper hand.
254
00:12:02,012 --> 00:12:02,972
-Wow.
-[Andrew] We do.
255
00:12:03,055 --> 00:12:06,726
I don't know what they think.
They're very tight-lipped about it.
256
00:12:07,309 --> 00:12:09,687
I think everybody here's
done a cheeseburger.
257
00:12:09,770 --> 00:12:14,275
I'm the owner of Cade's Cakes,
a custom cake business in New York.
258
00:12:14,817 --> 00:12:19,488
Cade's Cakes honestly originated
back when I was in college in Austin.
259
00:12:19,572 --> 00:12:23,743
You're on a college campus, so everybody
was trying to get alcohol bottle cakes.
260
00:12:23,826 --> 00:12:24,785
[laughs]
261
00:12:24,869 --> 00:12:30,249
And so it started making tequila bottles
or a margarita and things like that.
262
00:12:30,332 --> 00:12:32,418
And it just kinda spiraled from there.
263
00:12:33,878 --> 00:12:35,087
What are you making? Mold?
264
00:12:35,171 --> 00:12:38,090
I'm trying.
I need 75 minutes to set up, though.
265
00:12:38,174 --> 00:12:41,051
-Oh, too bad.
-That's why I'm doing it now.
266
00:12:41,135 --> 00:12:44,930
The most important part of
making a taco shell look real is texture.
267
00:12:45,014 --> 00:12:47,683
All right. We're gonna see if this works.
268
00:12:47,767 --> 00:12:52,480
I'm gonna press the texture
of a taco shell into the mold.
269
00:12:52,563 --> 00:12:56,776
I can use that mold to imprint the texture
on my modeling chocolate.
270
00:12:56,859 --> 00:13:00,613
I hope no one at home is like,
"You idiot, what are you doing?"
271
00:13:00,696 --> 00:13:02,615
I've only been baking for three years.
272
00:13:02,698 --> 00:13:06,035
And not until quarantine hit did I start
making realistic cakes.
273
00:13:06,118 --> 00:13:10,080
And I've learned all of my baking skills
by watching videos online.
274
00:13:10,164 --> 00:13:14,376
I failed science,
so this is not the greatest.
275
00:13:14,460 --> 00:13:19,256
I have gotten good at what I do
because I'm painfully single
276
00:13:19,340 --> 00:13:21,675
and have a lot of free time on my hands.
277
00:13:21,759 --> 00:13:25,846
And what I lack in experience
I think I make up for in, like…
278
00:13:25,930 --> 00:13:27,681
"Woo-woo, what's going on up there?"
279
00:13:28,182 --> 00:13:30,476
"You're a little…"
[clicks tongue] "…cuckoo."
280
00:13:31,560 --> 00:13:33,938
Can I offer anybody a taco? Taco, anybody?
281
00:13:34,021 --> 00:13:34,939
[laughing]
282
00:13:35,022 --> 00:13:38,400
I'm secretly upset that I didn't
make it to the first round.
283
00:13:38,484 --> 00:13:41,153
-I'm not even secretly upset about it.
-No secr--
284
00:13:41,237 --> 00:13:43,823
No. It's a bummer that we don't
get to be a part of it,
285
00:13:43,906 --> 00:13:45,908
but we have the opportunity to, like…
286
00:13:45,991 --> 00:13:47,618
-Kinda scope them out?
-Yeah.
287
00:13:48,828 --> 00:13:51,247
[funky music playing]
288
00:13:51,330 --> 00:13:52,873
[cheering, applauding]
289
00:13:52,957 --> 00:13:55,292
[Mikey] Hello, bakers.
290
00:13:55,376 --> 00:13:58,462
I'm spinning on the wall again.
291
00:13:58,546 --> 00:14:01,507
We've got a bunch of decoy foods.
292
00:14:01,590 --> 00:14:05,094
So, you guys can pick
any four of these items
293
00:14:05,177 --> 00:14:06,887
to help you fool the judges.
294
00:14:06,971 --> 00:14:09,056
So, Sam, that's four burgers.
295
00:14:09,139 --> 00:14:10,599
Are you doing sesame seed?
296
00:14:10,683 --> 00:14:13,727
If I have time,
I think I'll definitely do sesame seeds.
297
00:14:13,811 --> 00:14:15,729
What will you use for sesame seeds?
298
00:14:15,813 --> 00:14:17,773
I'm just gonna… Like, fondant.
299
00:14:17,857 --> 00:14:20,484
-Oh. Fondant.
-[laughing]
300
00:14:21,151 --> 00:14:24,321
-I'm gonna slowly roll each tiny seed.
-What is fondant?
301
00:14:24,405 --> 00:14:27,324
-We'll see what time looks like.
-Right. If you have time.
302
00:14:27,408 --> 00:14:28,868
We're gonna think about it.
303
00:14:29,827 --> 00:14:32,246
Look at Jonny's tacos.
304
00:14:32,329 --> 00:14:36,458
So, these decoys are interesting.
They're all hard shell tacos.
305
00:14:37,167 --> 00:14:39,753
It's like reverse psychology, you know?
306
00:14:39,837 --> 00:14:42,298
-Yes.
-Would they think that's… Would they…?
307
00:14:42,381 --> 00:14:45,134
I think it's gonna be pretty hard
to make a taco cake
308
00:14:45,217 --> 00:14:47,177
that blends in with these decoys.
309
00:14:48,971 --> 00:14:49,889
Taking these.
310
00:14:56,478 --> 00:14:59,315
[Hemu] I'm rolling out my fondant
really thin,
311
00:14:59,398 --> 00:15:01,066
then ripping it apart with the hand.
312
00:15:01,150 --> 00:15:04,528
And then I'm adding it to the croissant
to make the flakes.
313
00:15:04,612 --> 00:15:08,324
She has to make sure that detail is there
with the flaky croissant.
314
00:15:08,407 --> 00:15:09,325
[gasps]
315
00:15:09,408 --> 00:15:10,743
That looks so good.
316
00:15:11,827 --> 00:15:15,080
[Sam] This cheeseburger cake…
It's so small.
317
00:15:15,164 --> 00:15:17,541
I don't want to have everything hidden.
318
00:15:18,083 --> 00:15:21,837
I want to kind of have it a little bit,
like, the bun to the side,
319
00:15:21,921 --> 00:15:26,800
so you can see the details
and the components I'm spending hours on.
320
00:15:26,884 --> 00:15:30,179
For the tomato, I'm gonna use fondant.
321
00:15:30,262 --> 00:15:33,057
I'm sculpting out the texture.
322
00:15:33,140 --> 00:15:35,684
Tomatoes are honestly kind of slimy.
323
00:15:35,768 --> 00:15:40,356
So, to make cake look slimy,
there's a sugar gel you can typically use
324
00:15:40,439 --> 00:15:41,565
or shortening.
325
00:15:41,649 --> 00:15:45,319
And then I put a sugar piping gel
in the center of them
326
00:15:45,402 --> 00:15:46,820
to make it look wet.
327
00:15:47,655 --> 00:15:51,408
Do you think all three will fool them?
What if none of them fool them?
328
00:15:51,492 --> 00:15:53,202
-None of them what?
-Fool the judges.
329
00:15:53,285 --> 00:15:54,536
Oh.
330
00:15:54,620 --> 00:15:57,623
As slow as they're working,
I don't think they'll have enough time.
331
00:15:57,706 --> 00:15:59,416
-Ooh!
-[laughing]
332
00:15:59,500 --> 00:16:01,001
What's going on over here?
333
00:16:01,085 --> 00:16:02,086
A little trash talk.
334
00:16:02,169 --> 00:16:05,089
-We have become armchair experts.
-We're watching.
335
00:16:05,172 --> 00:16:08,050
I can't with you. I can already tell.
336
00:16:08,634 --> 00:16:10,260
Andrew. The hair.
337
00:16:10,344 --> 00:16:11,512
It's my signature.
338
00:16:11,595 --> 00:16:14,181
The beard changes color,
but the hair stays the same.
339
00:16:14,264 --> 00:16:18,477
When you see Andrew,
the first thing you think is not,
340
00:16:19,061 --> 00:16:21,146
"That's a pastry chef from Iowa."
341
00:16:21,230 --> 00:16:22,106
[laughing]
342
00:16:22,189 --> 00:16:24,274
-Right?
-So, watch out.
343
00:16:24,358 --> 00:16:25,651
[laughing]
344
00:16:27,319 --> 00:16:31,073
Hey, Jonny? Did you make two halves
of a taco shell?
345
00:16:31,156 --> 00:16:32,950
I'm trying a couple of different tech--
346
00:16:33,033 --> 00:16:35,119
So, you're just trying out
a couple of things.
347
00:16:35,202 --> 00:16:37,955
We're gonna see
in the, uh, eleventh hour, I think.
348
00:16:38,038 --> 00:16:39,248
[April] Okay.
349
00:16:39,331 --> 00:16:42,960
So, I'm rolling out some
modeling chocolate for the taco shell.
350
00:16:43,043 --> 00:16:47,464
If I don't get the perfect coloring right,
it's gonna give away that it's cake.
351
00:16:47,548 --> 00:16:52,302
So, I spend a lot of my time
just color-matching.
352
00:16:54,346 --> 00:16:55,472
Oh my God.
353
00:16:55,556 --> 00:16:56,890
-[Hemu] What?
-Oh my God.
354
00:16:56,974 --> 00:16:59,018
What? What happened?
355
00:16:59,643 --> 00:17:00,519
Are you all right?
356
00:17:01,729 --> 00:17:02,688
My hands are like…
357
00:17:04,273 --> 00:17:05,941
This has never happened before.
358
00:17:06,025 --> 00:17:09,611
My hands are taking on
a life of their own,
359
00:17:09,695 --> 00:17:12,573
and they're literally
cramping up like this.
360
00:17:13,365 --> 00:17:17,411
It feels like there's a small demon
child inside of me, like…
361
00:17:17,494 --> 00:17:19,872
[laughs] …taking control of my hands.
362
00:17:19,955 --> 00:17:22,624
Clearly, I've been overworking them.
363
00:17:22,708 --> 00:17:26,920
I've been kneading color
into modeling chocolate for an hour plus.
364
00:17:27,004 --> 00:17:28,422
I'll be fine. I'm just--
365
00:17:28,505 --> 00:17:30,674
-Are you sure?
-Yeah. I'm fine.
366
00:17:31,675 --> 00:17:37,139
'Cause I just heard Steve whisper,
"Yes! His hands are cramping."
367
00:17:37,222 --> 00:17:39,516
-Yes.
-Without hands, a baker is nothing.
368
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,143
That… That's true.
369
00:17:43,020 --> 00:17:49,109
[upbeat music playing]
370
00:17:52,196 --> 00:17:54,281
[Jonny] That looks so good.
371
00:17:54,364 --> 00:17:56,075
[Sam] It's a work in progress.
372
00:17:56,158 --> 00:17:58,994
The strategy with the bun is
to get the color just right.
373
00:17:59,078 --> 00:18:00,704
I've always struggled with that.
374
00:18:00,788 --> 00:18:03,957
I've gotta make it a little more yellow
versus orange.
375
00:18:04,041 --> 00:18:06,960
Airbrushing typically
looks more realistic,
376
00:18:07,044 --> 00:18:10,756
because with a brush it's really hard
not to have brush strokes.
377
00:18:10,839 --> 00:18:12,091
[Jonny] It looks so good.
378
00:18:14,134 --> 00:18:15,719
[Hemu] I'm making my bacon now.
379
00:18:15,803 --> 00:18:18,931
I've added different colors
of fondant together
380
00:18:19,014 --> 00:18:20,808
and rolled it out really thin.
381
00:18:20,891 --> 00:18:25,270
And I'm adding the texture
with crumpled aluminum foil.
382
00:18:25,354 --> 00:18:27,106
Anyone want to eat bacon?
383
00:18:27,189 --> 00:18:30,609
I'm kind of struggling
to make this bacon look real,
384
00:18:30,692 --> 00:18:34,196
because I've never eaten bacon
in my life, so…
385
00:18:34,279 --> 00:18:36,198
[sighs] …I don't know what I'm doing.
386
00:18:36,281 --> 00:18:37,950
[Mikey] Bakers! One hour left!
387
00:18:40,077 --> 00:18:43,872
[energetic music playing]
388
00:18:44,873 --> 00:18:48,794
Man, I should've watched baking shows
before I did this.
389
00:18:49,628 --> 00:18:50,462
Mm.
390
00:18:58,804 --> 00:19:01,807
Oh, that's fondant.
391
00:19:01,890 --> 00:19:02,766
Okay.
392
00:19:18,490 --> 00:19:20,576
All right, ten minutes left, bakers!
393
00:19:20,659 --> 00:19:23,078
And I know a lot more about cake now.
394
00:19:23,162 --> 00:19:25,372
I hope you guys used your…
395
00:19:25,455 --> 00:19:26,915
[knowingly] …sugar shapers.
396
00:19:26,999 --> 00:19:29,251
[laughing]
397
00:19:31,211 --> 00:19:34,506
Or a Dresden tool?
398
00:19:35,132 --> 00:19:36,633
I don't know what that is.
399
00:19:36,717 --> 00:19:37,843
Or…
400
00:19:39,178 --> 00:19:40,429
eggs?
401
00:19:42,931 --> 00:19:44,308
[Hemu] Oh, it looks cool.
402
00:19:44,391 --> 00:19:46,852
[Sam] The color's a little off,
but it'll be okay.
403
00:19:47,352 --> 00:19:49,730
[Mikey] All right. Five minutes, bakers!
404
00:19:50,230 --> 00:19:53,901
-[Sam] That looks amazing.
-I'm just trying to take some color off.
405
00:19:53,984 --> 00:19:57,738
And trying to highlight white portions,
you know?
406
00:19:58,488 --> 00:20:00,908
-[Jonny] Does it look like a taco?
-Yes, it does.
407
00:20:00,991 --> 00:20:03,076
My taco shells turned out pretty well.
408
00:20:03,827 --> 00:20:06,288
But I don't want the decoys
to look perfect,
409
00:20:06,371 --> 00:20:10,834
so I'm gonna put some of
my deep red tomatoes on one of them,
410
00:20:10,918 --> 00:20:12,794
in hopes that they look fake.
411
00:20:13,337 --> 00:20:17,966
[energetic music playing]
412
00:20:18,884 --> 00:20:20,969
Bakers! Time is up!
413
00:20:21,553 --> 00:20:23,680
-[clapping, shouting]
-[Mikey] This is it!
414
00:20:24,389 --> 00:20:26,725
I hope you all fool the judges.
415
00:20:31,605 --> 00:20:38,237
Bakers! You have been baking for hours
and creating cakes to fake out our judges,
416
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:42,574
for a chance to win up to $10,000
417
00:20:42,658 --> 00:20:44,868
and moving on to bake again.
418
00:20:45,410 --> 00:20:48,038
But first, it's time to meet your judges.
419
00:20:48,705 --> 00:20:50,958
This guy knows a bit about fast food.
420
00:20:51,041 --> 00:20:55,170
Host of the series Fresh, Fried and Crispy
on Netflix.
421
00:20:55,254 --> 00:20:59,758
A legend in the building, Daym Drops.
422
00:20:59,841 --> 00:21:01,385
[cheering, clapping]
423
00:21:03,470 --> 00:21:06,306
You're just traveling
and eating fast food, right?
424
00:21:06,390 --> 00:21:08,642
Traveling, getting my hungry on,
all type of food,
425
00:21:08,725 --> 00:21:11,853
mom-and-pop's, giving them the love
they deserve. Letting 'em shine.
426
00:21:11,937 --> 00:21:15,148
Well, I'm a big fan.
I'm also a big fan of this lady.
427
00:21:15,232 --> 00:21:19,736
Comedian, actor, and star
of her own Netflix special Sweet & Salty .
428
00:21:19,820 --> 00:21:22,823
Southern belle Fortune Feimster.
429
00:21:22,906 --> 00:21:24,616
-[Mikey] Hello!
-[clapping, cheering]
430
00:21:24,700 --> 00:21:25,701
[Fortune] Hi!
431
00:21:26,326 --> 00:21:28,620
-How are you?
-I'm good, Mikey. How are you?
432
00:21:28,704 --> 00:21:31,999
I'm great. I've never seen you salty,
though. You're just sweet.
433
00:21:32,082 --> 00:21:34,793
I can get salty
if you make me wake up early.
434
00:21:34,876 --> 00:21:35,836
[laughing]
435
00:21:36,503 --> 00:21:39,798
[Mikey] And he's a celebrity chef
and cook book author.
436
00:21:39,881 --> 00:21:41,550
Mr. Ronnie Woo!
437
00:21:41,633 --> 00:21:43,135
[cheering, clapping]
438
00:21:43,218 --> 00:21:45,178
Oh yeah! I don't know why I did this.
439
00:21:45,721 --> 00:21:47,764
This is just eating stuff.
440
00:21:47,848 --> 00:21:50,434
-You're a former professional model…
-I am.
441
00:21:50,517 --> 00:21:52,185
…who can also cook.
442
00:21:52,269 --> 00:21:53,603
I'm taken. Sorry, guys.
443
00:21:53,687 --> 00:21:54,771
[laughing]
444
00:21:55,439 --> 00:21:57,232
Judges, here's how this works.
445
00:21:57,316 --> 00:21:59,568
This cake wall is gonna spin around.
446
00:21:59,651 --> 00:22:03,739
And you'll see five cake stands,
each holding an item of fast food.
447
00:22:03,822 --> 00:22:08,577
And only one of those cake stands
is holding an actual cake.
448
00:22:09,369 --> 00:22:11,788
The three of you have 20 seconds
449
00:22:11,872 --> 00:22:14,916
to observe, confer,
and agree on one answer,
450
00:22:15,459 --> 00:22:18,879
which you will enter on the keypad
in front of Fortune.
451
00:22:18,962 --> 00:22:21,882
You guys think you can
get along and find the cake?
452
00:22:21,965 --> 00:22:23,216
This is nothing.
453
00:22:23,300 --> 00:22:24,343
[Ronnie] We got it.
454
00:22:24,426 --> 00:22:25,302
It's not work.
455
00:22:25,385 --> 00:22:28,472
First up is Sam. Oh, Cake Wall!
456
00:22:31,641 --> 00:22:34,478
-[cheering]
-Cake Wall is making its way round!
457
00:22:34,561 --> 00:22:38,357
Five cheeseburgers, but one of them
is not a cheeseburger at all.
458
00:22:38,940 --> 00:22:41,568
One of them is actually a cake.
459
00:22:41,651 --> 00:22:44,112
Your time starts now!
460
00:22:44,196 --> 00:22:46,239
-[Fortune] Oh my gosh.
-[Ronnie] Wow.
461
00:22:46,323 --> 00:22:49,701
I don't know. They all look like--
They literally all look like burgers.
462
00:22:49,785 --> 00:22:51,620
[Ronnie] They're not all burgers.
463
00:22:51,703 --> 00:22:53,205
[judges chatting]
464
00:22:53,288 --> 00:22:55,207
[Ronnie] That has the most perfect cheese.
465
00:22:55,290 --> 00:22:57,793
-Cheese doesn't melt perfectly.
-[Mikey] Ten seconds!
466
00:22:57,876 --> 00:22:59,878
-Too perfect?
-[Ronnie] It's too perfect.
467
00:23:00,879 --> 00:23:05,050
-[Daym] That bun doesn't look right.
-[Fortune] They all look like hamburgers.
468
00:23:05,133 --> 00:23:08,887
-[Fortune] Five's the tallest.
-[Daym] Leave Five alone. Go back to One.
469
00:23:08,970 --> 00:23:10,764
We're not agreeing. This isn't working.
470
00:23:10,847 --> 00:23:12,057
[Daym] Vote One!
471
00:23:12,140 --> 00:23:13,850
[yells] Enter it in your keypad!
472
00:23:13,934 --> 00:23:15,018
What happens?!
473
00:23:15,102 --> 00:23:17,729
-[Ronnie] What if we don't choose?!
-[Daym] Number One.
474
00:23:17,813 --> 00:23:20,065
-[timer beeping]
-[judges panicking]
475
00:23:20,148 --> 00:23:22,150
-Hit the One.
-[rapid beeping]
476
00:23:22,234 --> 00:23:24,778
-[bell dinging]
-[Daym] We're in. We're locked in.
477
00:23:24,861 --> 00:23:28,073
[Mikey] Okay, judges. Time is up.
You guys chose Number One.
478
00:23:28,156 --> 00:23:29,991
[Fortune] This is so nerve-wracking.
479
00:23:30,700 --> 00:23:32,119
-Are you confident?
-Number One.
480
00:23:32,202 --> 00:23:34,496
-Number One.
-[Mikey] Why did you pick Number One?
481
00:23:34,579 --> 00:23:36,123
Because Daym said so.
482
00:23:36,206 --> 00:23:38,166
-[laughing]
-[Daym] Look, uh…
483
00:23:38,250 --> 00:23:41,420
I like that answer. I like that. Yes, yes.
484
00:23:42,546 --> 00:23:45,298
-Ronnie, are you as confident as Daym?
-[Ronnie] No.
485
00:23:45,382 --> 00:23:47,342
-I did not choose One.
-Ooh!
486
00:23:47,426 --> 00:23:48,969
-[Daym] Okay.
-I chose Five.
487
00:23:50,303 --> 00:23:52,722
Why do you think this is cake?
488
00:23:52,806 --> 00:23:55,642
The cheese is too perfect,
and it's the tallest one.
489
00:23:55,725 --> 00:23:58,645
You need some space to make cake.
You need volume in cake.
490
00:23:58,728 --> 00:24:01,648
So, let's see if you are right! Or wrong.
491
00:24:01,731 --> 00:24:03,191
-Oh my gosh.
-Oh man.
492
00:24:05,610 --> 00:24:06,903
[Fortune] Ooh…
493
00:24:06,987 --> 00:24:08,655
-That's a burger!
-That's a burger.
494
00:24:08,738 --> 00:24:11,074
-That's a burger!
-[Ronnie] Okay, okay.
495
00:24:13,285 --> 00:24:15,245
-All right. I stand corrected.
-Oh man.
496
00:24:15,328 --> 00:24:17,164
Ronnie. You were wrong.
497
00:24:17,247 --> 00:24:18,790
-I was.
-[Mikey] But…
498
00:24:18,874 --> 00:24:21,877
Your fellow judges might be wrong, too.
499
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:25,046
You're the junk food expert,
so you better get this right.
500
00:24:25,130 --> 00:24:27,966
[Daym] I was looking at it
from a distance, and saying,
501
00:24:28,049 --> 00:24:32,429
"That's a sexy cake designed as an
official cheeseburger,
502
00:24:32,512 --> 00:24:35,056
with the red ring of death,
the crunchy water."
503
00:24:35,140 --> 00:24:38,852
You gotta lay that something proper
to build a cake into a burger.
504
00:24:38,935 --> 00:24:41,605
I was looking at the rest,
and it wasn't happening for me.
505
00:24:41,688 --> 00:24:42,772
I got excited at One.
506
00:24:42,856 --> 00:24:45,233
-[woman] Wow.
-[clapping]
507
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:49,696
All right. I get to ask
the best question ever.
508
00:24:51,615 --> 00:24:52,699
Is it cake?
509
00:24:53,283 --> 00:24:57,913
Sam, if this is cake, that means
you didn't fool the judges,
510
00:24:57,996 --> 00:25:00,332
and you won't be up for the win today.
511
00:25:00,415 --> 00:25:02,542
-I'm nervous, Mikey.
-A little bit.
512
00:25:02,626 --> 00:25:05,045
[sings a dramatic tune]
513
00:25:05,545 --> 00:25:08,882
[tense music playing]
514
00:25:10,383 --> 00:25:11,801
[groaning]
515
00:25:12,385 --> 00:25:15,472
-That's cake!
-[Daym] Yes, it is! Yes, it is.
516
00:25:15,555 --> 00:25:18,141
-Ah! Result, baby! Yeah!
-[Ronnie] Good job, you guys.
517
00:25:18,225 --> 00:25:20,560
-[Fortune] Yeah, yeah.
-[Mikey] What gave it away?
518
00:25:20,644 --> 00:25:23,897
[Daym] I know my burgers, right?
I'm a big boy. I love food.
519
00:25:23,980 --> 00:25:26,608
-I can smell greatness from a mile away.
-Right.
520
00:25:26,691 --> 00:25:28,944
Burger. Cake.
521
00:25:29,027 --> 00:25:30,529
-[laughing]
-Enough said.
522
00:25:30,612 --> 00:25:33,114
Sam, are you surprised
they found your cake?
523
00:25:33,198 --> 00:25:37,494
I'm bummed. But I should've
put sesame seeds on all the buns.
524
00:25:37,577 --> 00:25:41,206
That's what gave it away for me.
They were the best sesame seeds.
525
00:25:41,289 --> 00:25:43,375
It looked really good though.
It fooled me.
526
00:25:43,458 --> 00:25:48,129
Unfortunately, Sam, that means you're not
up for the win today.
527
00:25:48,213 --> 00:25:50,924
Judges, since you found the cake,
528
00:25:51,007 --> 00:25:54,761
I think it's only fair
you get to try it, too, right?
529
00:25:54,844 --> 00:25:55,929
-Yeah.
-Definitely.
530
00:25:56,012 --> 00:25:58,515
-[Mikey] Sam!
-[clapping, cheering]
531
00:25:58,598 --> 00:26:00,100
How messed up is this?
532
00:26:00,183 --> 00:26:03,103
The judges found her cake,
533
00:26:03,186 --> 00:26:05,522
and we make her come and serve you.
534
00:26:05,605 --> 00:26:06,731
[Fortune laughs]
535
00:26:06,815 --> 00:26:09,150
That's why I'm here.
They told me I got to eat cake.
536
00:26:09,234 --> 00:26:10,443
[laughing]
537
00:26:10,527 --> 00:26:12,862
[Sam] Okay. So, I did a funfetti cake.
538
00:26:12,946 --> 00:26:15,949
And it has sprinkle cream cheese
and vanilla buttercream.
539
00:26:16,032 --> 00:26:17,784
Just like, pretty classic.
540
00:26:17,867 --> 00:26:19,452
[Fortune] It's really good.
541
00:26:19,536 --> 00:26:22,330
-Really good. Sam, that is so good!
-Okay, thank you.
542
00:26:22,414 --> 00:26:25,125
You did your thing right here, Sam.
Great flavor. It popped.
543
00:26:25,208 --> 00:26:26,459
My tastebuds are happy.
544
00:26:26,543 --> 00:26:27,586
Amazing job today.
545
00:26:27,669 --> 00:26:28,878
Thank you. Thank you.
546
00:26:28,962 --> 00:26:30,880
[cheering]
547
00:26:30,964 --> 00:26:34,134
[Mikey] Judges, time for our next baker
to try and fool you guys.
548
00:26:34,217 --> 00:26:38,179
Hemu is going to give you
a little taste of breakfast.
549
00:26:38,263 --> 00:26:41,349
Let's see if she can fool you. Cake Wall!
550
00:26:41,933 --> 00:26:46,771
Judges! You are about to see
five breakfast sandwiches.
551
00:26:46,855 --> 00:26:49,733
One of them is actually a cake.
552
00:26:49,816 --> 00:26:50,859
Oh my gosh.
553
00:26:50,942 --> 00:26:52,944
But, which one?
554
00:26:55,572 --> 00:26:57,741
Your time starts now! Go!
555
00:26:57,824 --> 00:26:59,784
[tense music playing]
556
00:26:59,868 --> 00:27:00,910
-Oh man.
-Oh my gosh.
557
00:27:03,163 --> 00:27:03,997
It's Two.
558
00:27:05,874 --> 00:27:07,876
[Fortune] Number Three's kinda like…
559
00:27:09,252 --> 00:27:11,921
-[Ronnie] Three… I…
-[Daym] Three's melting. No.
560
00:27:12,005 --> 00:27:14,049
-Ten seconds!
-It's Four.
561
00:27:14,132 --> 00:27:15,300
[Fortune] I don't know.
562
00:27:15,383 --> 00:27:16,801
[timer beeping]
563
00:27:16,885 --> 00:27:21,806
-[Mikey] Three, two, one.
-[rapid beeping]
564
00:27:21,890 --> 00:27:23,600
-Lock it in!
-[bell dinging]
565
00:27:24,893 --> 00:27:27,354
[Mikey] You landed on Three.
566
00:27:27,437 --> 00:27:28,355
Hm.
567
00:27:29,689 --> 00:27:31,149
Let's see if you found it.
568
00:27:31,232 --> 00:27:33,068
Let's check out Number Three.
569
00:27:33,151 --> 00:27:34,819
What makes you think this is cake?
570
00:27:34,903 --> 00:27:38,406
It's very perfect-looking.
Everything's in its place.
571
00:27:38,490 --> 00:27:40,867
It feels very deliberate.
572
00:27:40,950 --> 00:27:43,912
Everything else feels very like,
"Here's a sandwich."
573
00:27:43,995 --> 00:27:45,080
But that one's like,
574
00:27:45,747 --> 00:27:46,956
"Here's a cake."
575
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:48,124
[laughing]
576
00:27:48,708 --> 00:27:49,876
[Ronnie] It's too tall.
577
00:27:49,959 --> 00:27:53,046
That other one looks kind of like,
you can see space between.
578
00:27:53,129 --> 00:27:56,675
I always look for no space, when I'm
doing this on a regular basis.
579
00:27:56,758 --> 00:27:58,468
-[laughing]
-When you're evaluating--
580
00:27:58,551 --> 00:28:01,096
On my normal day-to-day job
when I look for fake food.
581
00:28:01,179 --> 00:28:04,349
Let's see if Number Three is cake.
582
00:28:04,432 --> 00:28:08,269
[tense music playing]
583
00:28:12,691 --> 00:28:14,192
-[Ronnie] Oh… Oh!
-[Mikey] Yes!
584
00:28:14,275 --> 00:28:16,695
-[Fortune] Is it? It's cake!
-[Mikey] That's cake!
585
00:28:16,778 --> 00:28:18,071
[clapping, cheering]
586
00:28:18,154 --> 00:28:19,948
-Oh!
-[Ronnie] We're too good at this!
587
00:28:20,031 --> 00:28:21,866
Come on. Come on now.
588
00:28:21,950 --> 00:28:24,744
[Mikey] I'm sorry, Hemu. What happened?
589
00:28:24,828 --> 00:28:26,579
I think I made it too perfect,
590
00:28:26,663 --> 00:28:28,915
as they said when they were judging Sam.
591
00:28:28,998 --> 00:28:32,127
So, this is a lesson learned.
We'll keep that in mind.
592
00:28:32,210 --> 00:28:37,173
All right. Unfortunately, Hemu, that
means you're not up for the win today.
593
00:28:37,257 --> 00:28:40,009
Judges, you earned a taste.
594
00:28:40,093 --> 00:28:42,679
Hemu, can you please
bring our wonderful judges
595
00:28:42,762 --> 00:28:44,639
a slice of your cake, please?
596
00:28:44,723 --> 00:28:46,766
[Hemu] It's a vanilla sponge cake
597
00:28:46,850 --> 00:28:49,644
with Swiss meringue,
strawberry buttercream.
598
00:28:49,728 --> 00:28:51,980
-Okay, okay.
-[Daym] Okay, champion.
599
00:28:52,564 --> 00:28:55,775
-That is the biggest bite ever.
-Oh my God!
600
00:28:56,359 --> 00:28:58,820
-[Ronnie] Delicious, and…
-[Fortune] Really good.
601
00:28:58,903 --> 00:29:01,322
…that sponge cake is really moist.
602
00:29:01,406 --> 00:29:02,991
Both cakes were delicious.
603
00:29:03,074 --> 00:29:06,077
That vanilla pops. That strawberry.
Great job.
604
00:29:06,161 --> 00:29:08,788
-[Hemu] Thank you so much.
-[Fortune] Good job.
605
00:29:09,581 --> 00:29:11,708
Woo-hoo! I can't clap. [laughs]
606
00:29:11,791 --> 00:29:14,961
All right. Jonny,
it's all coming down to you.
607
00:29:15,587 --> 00:29:19,048
We're going to find out if anyone's
gonna walk away with the money.
608
00:29:19,841 --> 00:29:22,385
Judges, I hope you like tacos.
609
00:29:22,469 --> 00:29:24,179
-Yeah, we do.
-Cake Wall!
610
00:29:24,804 --> 00:29:26,097
Okay, judges,
611
00:29:26,806 --> 00:29:30,185
you're about to see five tacos,
but guess what?
612
00:29:30,810 --> 00:29:33,855
-One is not a taco at all.
-[Ronnie] Oh my.
613
00:29:33,938 --> 00:29:36,191
[Fortune] This is tricky.
There's multiple tacos.
614
00:29:36,274 --> 00:29:37,817
[Mikey] Are you ready?
615
00:29:37,901 --> 00:29:39,402
I mean, this one's hard.
616
00:29:39,486 --> 00:29:41,362
[Mikey] Your time starts now!
617
00:29:42,322 --> 00:29:45,241
-[Fortune] Guys. I don't even know.
-[Daym] Oh my goodness.
618
00:29:47,202 --> 00:29:49,037
-Holy crap.
-[Daym] I say One or Two.
619
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,915
-[Fortune] Two's got bright colors…
-[Daym] You're right.
620
00:29:51,998 --> 00:29:54,709
[Ronnie] These aren't cakes, though.
These are, like, chips.
621
00:29:54,793 --> 00:29:57,128
That meat's suspect.
The taco's looking funny.
622
00:29:57,837 --> 00:29:59,005
[Mikey] Ten seconds!
623
00:30:01,549 --> 00:30:03,593
-[Fortune] The meat looks…
-[Mikey] Five, four…
624
00:30:03,676 --> 00:30:06,471
-[judges chatting]
-[Mikey] …three, two, one.
625
00:30:06,554 --> 00:30:07,931
-[beeping]
-Lock in an answer!
626
00:30:08,014 --> 00:30:09,849
-[Fortune screams]
-[rapid beeping]
627
00:30:11,518 --> 00:30:14,020
[Mikey] Okay, judges.
You guys chose Number Two.
628
00:30:16,105 --> 00:30:18,441
Daym and Ronnie,
did you guys have an answer?
629
00:30:18,525 --> 00:30:21,778
-Ronnie literally did not say one number.
-You didn't say nothing, bro!
630
00:30:21,861 --> 00:30:23,947
-[Mikey] I heard Daym say One.
-I didn't know!
631
00:30:24,030 --> 00:30:26,449
I was with One.
The meat didn't look right.
632
00:30:26,533 --> 00:30:29,869
I picked… 'cause anytime you've
got a good taco…
633
00:30:29,953 --> 00:30:31,329
-You go--
-Number Two.
634
00:30:31,412 --> 00:30:33,665
I knew that was coming, and I loved it.
635
00:30:33,748 --> 00:30:35,959
[Fortune] The tomatoes
look like gummy bears.
636
00:30:36,042 --> 00:30:40,129
Oh yeah! Oh my God.
And it looks like a little turd in there.
637
00:30:40,213 --> 00:30:43,091
It looks like a tiny little cat turd.
638
00:30:43,174 --> 00:30:45,927
-You haven't had cat turd tacos?
-[laughing]
639
00:30:46,010 --> 00:30:52,475
Jonny. We're about to find out
if he can win up to $10,000.
640
00:30:52,559 --> 00:30:54,352
-[gasping]
-Up to.
641
00:30:54,435 --> 00:30:56,271
-Oh my gosh.
-[Mikey] This is it.
642
00:30:56,855 --> 00:30:57,981
Is it cake?
643
00:30:58,064 --> 00:30:59,983
-Ready?
-Ooh. I'm nervous.
644
00:31:00,066 --> 00:31:02,193
I'm nervous.
If it crunches, I'm gonna die.
645
00:31:02,277 --> 00:31:04,153
[tense music playing]
646
00:31:04,237 --> 00:31:06,698
-[taco crunching]
-It's a taco!
647
00:31:06,781 --> 00:31:08,116
That's a taco!
648
00:31:08,199 --> 00:31:09,284
[Fortune] Wow!
649
00:31:09,367 --> 00:31:10,660
[cheering, clapping]
650
00:31:11,327 --> 00:31:13,580
Jonny, congrats!
651
00:31:15,748 --> 00:31:17,792
You were the only baker
to fool the judges.
652
00:31:18,376 --> 00:31:21,296
That means you just won $5,000, my friend.
653
00:31:22,714 --> 00:31:27,051
You also get to pick what two bakers
you wanna go up against next.
654
00:31:27,135 --> 00:31:29,387
-Thank you, guys.
-Good job!
655
00:31:29,470 --> 00:31:30,680
I'm so broke.
656
00:31:30,763 --> 00:31:31,598
Oh, good!
657
00:31:31,681 --> 00:31:34,267
Are you really?
Yay! We're doing God's work.
658
00:31:34,350 --> 00:31:38,730
Jonny, it's time to show the judges
which one really is your cake.
659
00:31:42,859 --> 00:31:44,235
All right. Let's find out.
660
00:31:46,487 --> 00:31:51,576
-Oh, so satisfying.
-[Ronnie] It's… a… cake.
661
00:31:51,659 --> 00:31:53,828
-[Fortune] Wow.
-[clapping]
662
00:31:54,329 --> 00:31:55,622
[Mikey] That's all one cake.
663
00:31:55,705 --> 00:31:57,457
-Is it chocolate cake?
-[Mikey] See it?
664
00:31:57,540 --> 00:31:59,167
Do you want me to feed it to you?
665
00:31:59,250 --> 00:32:01,377
-Yeah. Put it in my mouth.
-[laughing]
666
00:32:01,461 --> 00:32:02,545
Well done.
667
00:32:02,629 --> 00:32:06,424
So, Daym, Ronnie, and Fortune,
668
00:32:06,507 --> 00:32:09,177
come on up here
and have a taste of the winning cake.
669
00:32:09,260 --> 00:32:10,803
-All right.
-Well done.
670
00:32:10,887 --> 00:32:12,680
[whooping]
671
00:32:12,764 --> 00:32:15,642
Jonny, tell us about your cake.
The flavors and everything.
672
00:32:15,725 --> 00:32:19,854
Um, I'm calling it
a hazelnut cookie crunch.
673
00:32:19,938 --> 00:32:21,731
-[Fortune] Mm!
-Wow.
674
00:32:21,814 --> 00:32:23,107
[Ronnie] That's delicious.
675
00:32:23,191 --> 00:32:24,734
What is the lettuce made out of?
676
00:32:24,817 --> 00:32:25,944
Wafer paper.
677
00:32:26,027 --> 00:32:30,323
Jonny, I'm getting sweetness.
Savory. Decadent. Divine.
678
00:32:30,406 --> 00:32:33,117
Chocolate-loving. Smooth raspberry wine.
679
00:32:33,201 --> 00:32:36,120
I like it. I like where you're going.
Taco explosion.
680
00:32:37,038 --> 00:32:39,123
[cheering]
681
00:32:39,207 --> 00:32:41,376
Bakers, a round of applause
for our judges.
682
00:32:42,293 --> 00:32:44,087
[Fortune] Thank you, thank you.
683
00:32:44,170 --> 00:32:46,923
Judges. There's only one way out of here.
684
00:32:47,006 --> 00:32:48,841
-Cake Wall!
-[game show music playing]
685
00:32:48,925 --> 00:32:51,302
Please take our judges home, Cake Wall.
686
00:32:51,386 --> 00:32:52,261
Bye, guys!
687
00:32:53,179 --> 00:32:57,100
It tilts, and there's a slide
to the parking lot, so hold on.
688
00:32:58,309 --> 00:33:01,062
Jonny. Congratulations, bud.
689
00:33:01,562 --> 00:33:04,107
Sam and Hemu, please join the gallery.
690
00:33:04,190 --> 00:33:06,901
-[whooping]
-You did an amazing job, ladies.
691
00:33:07,986 --> 00:33:09,904
You will get a chance to bake again.
692
00:33:10,613 --> 00:33:15,243
Okay, Jonny. You know how I keep saying
you could win "up to $10,000"?
693
00:33:15,326 --> 00:33:16,327
Uh-huh.
694
00:33:16,411 --> 00:33:18,788
Well, you're about to find out why.
Follow me.
695
00:33:19,372 --> 00:33:22,333
It's time to play Cake Or Cash.
696
00:33:28,214 --> 00:33:32,760
Okay, Jonny. You fooled the judges,
you won your first $5,000.
697
00:33:32,844 --> 00:33:36,723
But guess what?
In the world of cake, there's always more.
698
00:33:37,849 --> 00:33:42,020
On the other side of that wall
are two burlap sacks.
699
00:33:42,103 --> 00:33:43,521
-[gasping, laughing]
-Oh my!
700
00:33:44,397 --> 00:33:47,775
[Mikey] One of the sacks
is filled with cash, and the other one…
701
00:33:47,859 --> 00:33:50,486
you're not gonna believe this… is cake.
702
00:33:50,570 --> 00:33:53,948
-If you guess the cake, you get the cash.
-Those are good, man.
703
00:33:54,032 --> 00:33:57,368
[Mikey] You will have 15 seconds
to determine which one is cake
704
00:33:57,452 --> 00:33:59,495
and lock in your answer, friend.
705
00:33:59,579 --> 00:34:02,248
You're gonna either win
another $5,000 right now,
706
00:34:02,331 --> 00:34:05,126
or a delicious slice of cake.
707
00:34:05,209 --> 00:34:06,544
[laughing]
708
00:34:08,296 --> 00:34:10,882
[Mikey] You will have 15 seconds,
starting…
709
00:34:11,841 --> 00:34:12,717
now!
710
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,386
[tense music playing]
711
00:34:17,138 --> 00:34:19,182
[Mikey] What's cake? What's cash?
712
00:34:20,058 --> 00:34:24,187
[timer beeping]
713
00:34:24,270 --> 00:34:28,524
-[rapid beeping]
-[Mikey] Three, two, one!
714
00:34:28,608 --> 00:34:31,486
-[bell dinging]
-[Mikey] His answer's locked and loaded.
715
00:34:32,403 --> 00:34:35,156
[clapping]
716
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,284
[Mikey] I mean, I'm looking at those.
They look identical.
717
00:34:38,367 --> 00:34:41,871
Yeah. I went with my gut,
but my gut might not be right.
718
00:34:41,954 --> 00:34:44,290
You picked Number One.
Let's see if you got it.
719
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,878
You've already won $5,000.
720
00:34:48,961 --> 00:34:50,421
If this is a cake,
721
00:34:51,547 --> 00:34:54,550
you will win another $5,000.
722
00:34:55,468 --> 00:34:57,678
-Yeah.
-What are you gonna do with the money?
723
00:34:58,346 --> 00:35:01,849
I'm gonna go visit my brother in Scotland.
724
00:35:02,350 --> 00:35:04,769
That is specific and awesome.
725
00:35:04,852 --> 00:35:07,146
-You are?
-Yeah, I haven't seen him in a while.
726
00:35:07,230 --> 00:35:10,274
Okay, now I'm gonna be super sad if this…
727
00:35:10,358 --> 00:35:12,235
-It's okay!
-…isn't cake.
728
00:35:12,318 --> 00:35:13,444
It's fun. Let's do it.
729
00:35:13,528 --> 00:35:16,697
For Jonny's brother's sake,
let's hope this is cake.
730
00:35:16,781 --> 00:35:20,660
[tense music playing]
731
00:35:22,578 --> 00:35:23,412
Oh…
732
00:35:24,622 --> 00:35:25,665
Oh!
733
00:35:25,748 --> 00:35:27,959
[whooping, clapping]
734
00:35:28,876 --> 00:35:30,628
-That's cake!
-[cheering]
735
00:35:31,629 --> 00:35:34,966
Jonny! You just won $5,000!
736
00:35:35,049 --> 00:35:36,843
[whooping]
737
00:35:37,635 --> 00:35:39,345
You guys are so nice!
738
00:35:39,428 --> 00:35:43,391
For a grand total of $10,000.
739
00:35:43,474 --> 00:35:44,600
Thank you. I…
740
00:35:45,810 --> 00:35:49,397
You weren't sure.
You took a stab at it. But you…
741
00:35:50,106 --> 00:35:50,982
[metallic swoosh]
742
00:35:51,065 --> 00:35:52,483
…stabbed right.
743
00:35:52,567 --> 00:35:53,693
[music warps]
744
00:35:53,776 --> 00:35:55,194
[laughing]
745
00:35:55,820 --> 00:35:59,407
That catchphrase is not gonna take off.
746
00:36:00,908 --> 00:36:02,660
This is indeed cake.
747
00:36:03,244 --> 00:36:05,705
I'm about to eat money.
I hope that's not illegal.
748
00:36:06,706 --> 00:36:07,957
[whooping]
749
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,126
Jonny! Congrats, dude.
750
00:36:10,209 --> 00:36:12,795
Jonny moves on
and will challenge two new bakers
751
00:36:12,879 --> 00:36:14,672
for a chance to win more cash.
752
00:36:14,755 --> 00:36:17,341
Another $10,000 is up for grabs.
753
00:36:17,425 --> 00:36:22,180
I'll be back in five, four, three, two…
754
00:36:22,263 --> 00:36:24,849
-[crunching]
-Oh my God, I'm caught up in the gears.
755
00:36:24,932 --> 00:36:27,018
[Mikey yells] Oh my God! Oh my God!
756
00:36:27,101 --> 00:36:28,895
Please, someone help!
