My favorite start to a consultation: “I don’t need anything too difficult or complicated…” then proceeds to explain the most complicated, impossible cake you’ve ever heard of.
Bacteria Fart cake it is 🤣
Yeah! And they expect it to have a mural of a hand painted Michelangelo artwork around the entire thing. With one of his sculptures on top done in sugar😂 but God forbid you charge them over $40 for that 3 tiered cake lol
It’s the same with art commissions at times. “Oh yeah just do something simple” or “nothing complicated” and then proceed to describe the most convoluted concept ever. People who don’t understand the process just assume that any creator telepathically manifests whatever they’re making without effort lol
I did not even ask for a lot. I only gave them a picture with a birthday cake I found on pinterest. They managed to get the appearance but it still tasted awful even tho I only said the ingredients should be vegan. Since then I make my birthday cakes myself I rather them looking shitty than taste shitty and I have found pretty good recipes at that.
@@strictlydonotcare2421 People absolutely disrespect art. They disrespect the process, the work, the skill, the agonizing days and nights spent on it, and they disrespect it further by just getting the robots to do it.
No food-safe dye, but yes toxic flowers?!
@R.P.-hw2rq I think the point was that they were OK with the baby's breath though, despite being warned that it's toxic. You're right, many people are sensitive or allergic to artificial food dyes, but that doesn't make natural poisons less poisonous just because they're natural.
Well, you see, flowers are natural! Natural is good! Food coloring is artificial. Artificial bad! /s
@@R.P.-hw2rq Yes, how strange and gross of me to judge someone who chooses literal poison over food coloring. Clearly, I am the weirdo here.
@@R.P.-hw2rq I mean, you directly replied to a comment where I was specifically talking about this one instance. So, unless you were implying that I make a habit of this, which would be pretty ridiculous, I had to assume that your comment was in response to my statement. 🤷 I'm not sure why you're so upset about people judging someone who would rather consume toxic flowers than food coloring, but you can shout into the void all you like. Have a good night.
Babys breath isn't toxic. But eating too much will cause stomache issues.
I thought the twist was that she wanted ro assassinate the people there lmao
That was my thought too! A jealous ex wanting to poison the wedding party 😂
Same
My thoughts exactly!
That's what i thought this would be about from the start when they were acting cagey, and then it was revealed it was a wedding cake and i realized it would probs just gonna be a sneaky, dumb customer
Yes... a "birthday party"... there will be Cool-aid there too..
That decision at the end; correct. Don’t cater for anyone who gives you cause to think they’re going to decorate your food with poisonous flowers. Better to lose a sale than a business!
Smartest move to be sure.
You’re obviously poorer than a corporation then with how they acting up.
Thanks for explaining why that was the final straw 😊
Probably shouldn't recommend them to any other bakeries then.
I suppose they were going to recommend them to one down the street they have a grudge on and/or competing with?
The flower isn’t actually fatal at most it’ll cause a stomach ache.
Ok i looked it up ,and baby's breath caused irritation, rashes ,and potentially stomach issues , so thankfully not fatal
Please look it up at another source. Baby's breath is fatal, especially for smaller children. The symptoms you listed are for a mild poisoning. The more severe are heart problems and respiratory paralysis. The intake of 2 leaves (people mistake baby's breath with wild garlic) will kill an adult within 2 days.
Some species are even used for food, especially desserts, even wedding cakes. I also read that it's not inherently toxic, it's mixed it up with other species. Serious issues like those are rare and I suppose only if you it a ton of it.
Still risky especially for children or those with weak immune systems. If you're the vendor you better have the customer sign a waiver even if your business is still liable for any expensive hospitalization your cake may cause.
@@Romy--- It's not toxic, but eating too much will cause issues mostly stomache issues.
But why use them, when we have a variety of edible flowers?
When she said "no food coloring" my brain went straight to "Ok shall I feed the geese some red cabbage and use the resulting turquoise blue turds to frost it for you?"
Because one day as a teenager I fed the geese a bunch of red cabbage we got given, and the yard had turquoise blue plops all over it for a week!
I imagine something slightly alkaline would have the same effect with red cabbage, although the image of blue geese turd is hilarious
@@sydneyjackson6530 That would still be food coloring though. Food coloring is literally just...colors that color your food. There are many very eco colors too
😂😂😂😂😂colorful story😂😂😂😂😂
I would love to know the science behind how about happened, because that is hilarious
@@heartofthewild680Same lmao
Plot twist: she wasn’t planning a wedding, but a murder.
Also known as the “Australian mushroom special”
A murder of 80 people.
I think this would classify as an attempted massacre :D considering the amount of ppl she wanted to feed the cake.
The flower IS Not that Dangerous, IT technically IS Not even poisenous. IT can however cause allergic reactions so Same differences for WHO ever gets Hit by that, but Overall IT IS way less reliable
Yes
When the customer is more toxic than the flowers they want on their cake
😅😅😅😅😅
The flower IS Not toxic, Like Not really, IT IS an irritant, but when IT causes an allergic reaction and someone goes into anaphylactic shok, I doubt they Care about the destinction
She wasn’t being toxic.. That's a big word
I always hate these customers, you lose an inch off your life trying to accomedate them.
I actually went for "subtle natural wedding makeup" and she flat out told me the service would cost almost double the price if she had known I was the bride not an atendee. I absolutely believe in things often being overpriced just due to the wedding tag.
It is a thing - people who are hired for a wedding tend to expect to be put under more stress in the event of a "bridezilla" so they price higher, and the higher price tends to make the wedding party expect better quality, which can put more stress on the people hired, etc.
And of course plenty of brides aren't like that but the reputation has unfortunately stuck.
I think they just meant that their business specifically doesn't do that
Some contractors don't care, they'll provide the same service and charge the same no matter what. Others will give a higher quote since they expect even more things than usual to be demanded. And some people just charge more because it's a higher value thing being asked of them, so they want some of that value themselves.
@@amoureux6502Even the nicest lady can turn into a bridezilla. There's a lot of emotion, of fear, of anticipation, hope, the dreams of her youth, nervousness as she steps into the unknown... enough to make anyone a little crazy.
@@butasimpleidiotwizardBut my thing is, then why did it matter? She says it's bc of how many people they have to feed and driving it to the venue, but she already knew it had to feed 80 and be driven to a venue. So why did it matter *what* the event was unless it was to just price it higher?
It's a carrot cake so use carrot flowers. They are edible small white flowers.
They look almost exactly the same, too! I bet miss "not a wedding cake" would never know the difference lol
Perfect suggestion! ❤
Just not safe during pregnancy.
@@Wildberryquilting still probably safer in small quantities than eating baby's breath is though! lolz
oh what so now you're being all eco-friendly? XD
I was half expecting her to be trying to send a poison cake to her ex's wedding
Me too! 😂
I laughed out loud at "bacteria fart cake." 😂🤣
Hi, can you please explain what that means? I have 0 knowledge about baking 😂
@@imechko_familia dot
@@imechko_familiaShe’s probably talking about blue spirulina. It looks cool, very beautiful blue, but it tastes like shit lmao. I had a latte made with that, looked cute tasted bad.
@@imechko_familia I assume she's referring to spirulina, which is an edible intensely blue pigment called Phycocyanin extracted from blue-green algae also known as cyanobacteria. I think it sometimes has a cheesy or fishy taste/smell because it comes from a type of bacteria abundant in the ocean
@@mouselmaoSo it is really bacteria farts! I thought it was just referring to taste similar to rotten food. 😮
Butterfly pea flower (as used for tea) could theoretically give a 'pale blue' without food coloring.....but getting hands on some to use is likely impossible for 99% of bakers in time for a wedding...I mean birthday.
Substitute onion flowers for the baby's breath...arrangement could make it look very similar and at least its actually edible, but they'd likely never ask for anything like that again when they get onion-flavored cake. Of course, if they're ok with 'bacteria fart' cake, they might not mind.
Spirulina is also used for light blue! It's made from algae and I've seen ice cream coloured with it, so it should be perfectly fine for a cake
I’m sorry, *bacteria fart* cake? Um…. Never heard of this before till now and… what a- interesting name or description… or flavour?
@@zenmomLolIt’s in the video
@@properantagonistI think that’s where the fart cake joke cake from, blue spirulina is gross
@@properantagonist Spirulina isn't algae, it's cyanobacteria colonies. Hence the bacteria fart jokes
When I wanted poisonous flowers on a cake, I looked them up first and found out they were toxic. So I grabbed some modelling marzipan and food dye to make mini ones instead. It's the sane thing to do.
And this is the precise time its OK to call a paying customer a moron straight to their face. Repeatedly.
You can't fix stupid. Don't try. It hurts.
I once attended a backyard garden style wedding. Beautiful gardens. Except the cake was right underneath this big trellis or whatever its called of angels trumpet. Angels trumpet isnt something you want to ingest. I called non-emergency so they could be on standby and notified since it needs a specific antidote and symptoms can manifest to look like other more common things. Needless to say I did not partake in the hallucinogenic potentially lethal plant but others inadvertently ingested some despite warnings. Everyone survived and it made for a good story much later.
But youd be suprised at how many common household plants and garden plants can be lethal in the right circumstances. Poisons are my thing, I've got my own poison garden inspired by the famous one. But i also study them as one of my jobs.
The one at Alnwick? I want to go there
Was there videos of their overly fun time? 🤣
oh boy, so the cake was basically contaminated with a close relative of datura? 😟
I love that sentence being so casual. "I have a poison garden of my own" what...?
Uh.. I'm glad you're one of the good poison gardeners, and not one of the malicious ones with hooked noses. You know, those who would arrange poisonous wedding cakes, gives fair maidens with skin white as snow inconspicuous apples, and meddles with the public water supply which would make the frogs gay?
I was actually wondering if the poisonous cake was going to be sent to the wedding of her ex that cheated on her with the bride-to-be, like for revenge lol
It took me way too long to comprehend that ‚bacteria‘ cake is, of course, spirulina, which are cyanobacteria 🙈
Fun fact. I'm highly allergic to spirulina and it would cause me to choke probably. But please no plastic supports.
Yes sister!!!! Why do the customers want to poison themselves? Plastic no, toxic flowers yummy!
But the flowers are natural!!! /s
@justemmalyn7934 yep... as are shrooms, arsenic, asbestos, opium, geardia. Let's have the best natural themed cake made! :)
@@justaperson4065 Yes, just like our ancestors would have wanted!
People can have Allergies to food dye, not sure about the flowers though
@@CyberFlare-fn9kn People can have very serious allergies to this flower. People can have serious allergies to simple flour. It has nothing to do with natural vs. synthetic.
“But oleander is so pretty”. But I don’t want to be arrested for poisoning my clients!
Clearly your clients aren’t the same as my clients…
Doesn't he own the wand shop?
'Food dye and potential microplastics NO NO NO OMG ARE YOU INSANE, but poisonous flowers? Sure, why not' 😂
not poisonous. mildly toxic. the amount you'd need to ingest to be a serious problem unless you are allergic is ridiculously huge
The sad part is that pansies are quite edible and would have been a lovely complement to the pale blue cake.
I did always wonder if the labor was right on the wedding cake vs. regular cake thing. Just got engaged recently and we're not doing anything huge, but if we do buy a cake that's something we'll keep in mind.
Nothing more romantic than treating the workers making your day special with the respect and compensation they deserve! Always pay your artists 😊
I call cap, because wedding cakes and birthday of the same size, icing and cake flavour cost different. But it could be a country difference.
uh most wedding cakes are MUCH bigger than a birthday cake. Most wedding cakes are tiered cakes and elaborately decorated. That's why they have supports inside to hold up the cake. Most birthday cakes tend to be one cake with 2-4 layers, and while they can be elaborate, they are usually not on the level of a wedding cake..@@YurinanAcquiline
Look for a bakery that breaks down for you what you're paying per serving. Keep in mind that if you want fondant it's going to cost a lot more than if you wanted buttercream, and that your final cost will depend on the flavor of the cake you choose and the decor.
My friend just got married and she told the makeup artist she’s goung to a friend’s wedding, it would’ve cost her 3 times as much if she told the makeup artist that it’s her wedding, that doesn’t make any sense for the same work and products. Same for cake, if it’s the same size why is there a massive price difference.
Part of the price difference is for pain and suffering. If a birthday cake isn't absolutely perfect then it isn't that big a big deal. If a wedding cake isn't perfect then people go nuts.
I'd have informed them that putting poisonous substances on the cake would increase the price to about 8 figures for each person who is expected to take a bite from it.
Putting high pricetags on stupid ideas is usually a good way to either get people to rethink what they're doing, or to find out they have exponentionally more money than braincells.
I don't know legally if helping them find a different bakery still makes you an accessory or not.
Someone will do it and have them sign a liability form
So basically, “tell me you’re American, without telling me you’re American” 😂😂
@@dranoopjain cause other nations don't have a legal system?
@@theyearwas1473 we do, pretty robust ones. But we are not cynical litigious bunch of assholes. We have common sense and try to resolve issues amicably rather than chasing each other with lawsuits
@@dranoopjain so if somebody you knew, brought a cake to your family's home and your family died from eating that cake, and somebody willingly knowingly told somebody to pick the bakery that would make the poison cake, knowing it would be served, you don't think that person should be held responsible in any way?
I was expecting her to ask for white oleander flowers on the cake. If you want to know more there is a movie " White Oleander" with Michelle Pfeiffer.
I remember I had to read that book for my high school English class... sure it's a decent book with it's literary merits, but let's just say I wasn't yet mature enough to handle the main character's emotional trauma and explicit content.
@AnnaMorimoto I saw it as an adult, and it was unsettling. I wonder if they still let school kids read that book.
@@anndownsouth5070 I sincerely hope not.
i better lose myself
The book is better.
I was actually excited when they made the movie…that’s what I get for believing hollywood could get anything right. 😐
Are we sure this was for her wedding, not, like, a very bitter ex's wedding whose day she would very much like to ruin by poisoning the guests?
I enjoy cooking and baking on occasion. People tell me to become a professional chef. But this, this is exactly why I don’t wanna make my skills into a job. I don’t have the patience to deal with overly demanding customers. I’d much rather make stuff for fun and enjoyment over for a paycheck.
As someone who used to work on wedding cake consultations, thankyou for this video. It really was like this sometimes. 😂
Not me thinking she was being sneaky about it being for a wedding because she had beef with the couple and wanted to murder them😭
Yeah...i hate when people ask for baby's breath on cakes too. Pretty toxic.
Try daisies as an alternative?
I’ve heard good things about carrot flowers.
@@cassandrabelyeu2419 That would be perfect for this cake since she asked for carrot cake flavored
It’s not though
Use fake flower's instead would be a solution if the really want it
poisonous flowers on a cake reminded me of 'without a recipe: illusion cake' video of try guys where Eugene literally served cake with hydrangea (poisonous flower) to the judges 😂😂
I love how her voice is too pretty to imitate a difficult person lol
The dilemma of going with the order to make the sale or just get rid of the problem customer who will be unsatisfied with their own choices in the end.
That's where you would need a real salesperson who can make the customer switch their mind and think its their own choice.
How is she supposed to stay as toxic as she is without consuming poison on special occasions?
It's hard work to be unreasonable, you know!
Babys breath isn't toxic, it can cause stomache issues that's all.
@@TemariNaraannaschatz toxic doesn't have to mean deadly. Toxic means that it does something unpleasant to your body, regardless of severity
@@MawdyDev Toxic means it contains toxin or poison, which babys breath does not.
toxic
adjective
of, pertaining to, affected with, or caused by a toxin or poison: a toxic condition.
acting as or having the effect of a poison; poisonous: a toxic drug.
@@TemariNaraannaschatz You provided a definition that proves what I said. Do you not understand what you just copy-pasted?
@@MawdyDev compare it with lilly of the valley and you will understand
Off-topic, but your voice is very calming 😊
Oh thank you!
Plot twist: She was trying to commit mass poisoning.
Tbvh I thought the client was trying to poison her enemies 😂
I've solved the problem of wanting toxic flowers on a wedding cake by using fake versions of those flowers instead. But that does involve plastic. 😄
omg thank you 100% relatable, I work in the bakery and i dislike customers trying to keep it cheap for a tier cake. Which is why we always offer full sheet to feed the guests and a small cake for the bride and groom to slice. The biggest loophole at my shop is the customer will intentionally purchase 2 standard double layers(cheaper than the size we wouldve stacked it) so they can bring it home to stack it themselves. I had cases where they purposely asked me "how" the procdure to put it together works. I always smile and tell them they can find clips on how to build their cake online. if youre not paying me then i sure am not telling you how lol
also the real flower on the cake thing...yeah always important to give awareness for food safety when comes to real flowers on the cake. My excuse is always cross contamination is why we avoiding adding real flowers on the cake(I dont make the rules every manager who runs a bakery will have unofficial policy)
When she said carrot cake, I thought it would have been topped with hemlock
HELPPP THIS REMINDS ME OF THE BOYS IN MY CLASS DARING EACH OTHER TO EAT THE BERRIES GROWING IN THE HEDGEROW AND I LOOKED OVER TO SEE WHAT THE BERRIES WERE AND THEY WERE FOCKIN ✨BELLADONNA✨ AND BRAD'S GOT ONE BETWEEN HIS LIPS PLAYING AROUND LIKE HES GONNA SWALLOW IT LMFAO istfg i never moved so fast in my LIFE
She looks like the female version of TheReportOfTheWeek
🤣 Now I can't NOT see that. Still think she's cute though.
My delight is immeasurable and my day is made
The way this was going I thought the customer was trying to poison a couple and all their guests
I thought she was going to send a toxic cake to her ex's wedding or something like that 💀
2:41 Is not that toxic , just makes you puke or have diareea. She could have asked for lily of the valley. Is an extremely popular flower for wedding bouquets and consuming any part of it may cause a heart attack.
I'm weirdly fascinated by this typo, it's as if you accidentally moved the l from one word to the other, except that's not what happened because that's not how typing works. Fascinating.
@@grmpf is an L not an I and is an extremely common mistake for both native and non native speakers since there is no real rule in english on when a consonnant will be doubled and when it will not
@@Ciprian-IonutPanait I... I would like you to really think about what you just wrote there in the beginning.
@@grmpf I honestly do not care for your grammar police attitude. I have much more important issues on my mind so you can do whatever. Go cry me a river for a misplaced L
Or foxglove- the source of digoxin (heart medication).
i thought the girl making an order is groom's ex, who got dumped for a bride, so now she wants to poison both of them 😂
I googled babyls breath. The first pop up said its non toxic and the next 5 or 6 told me various ways it can make me sick
I thought this was going to go in the hydrangea direction 😂
Oh boy. But considering the blue theme...
I thought for sure it would be buttercups..
Buttercup poisoning symptoms include: nausea, vomiting, blistering of the throat, bloody diarrhea, kidney problems, and kidney failure, and in rare cases.. death
Because in my brain a giant birthday cake for a venue should cost as much as a wedding cake i just thought they were planning a murder at first.
While I've never eaten them, baby's breath flowers contain saponins which, as the name might suggest, tend to taste like soap. I'm just imagining cilantro wedding cake that also gives rashes. How delightful. 😖
Huh I worked with so much babies breath when I was doing floral arrangements. Had no idea it was toxic! 🤯
I love the part "they did what?" and the face. I love you.
WE GOT A NEW VIDEO!! Oh man I’ve missed your videos lol
Don’t worry there are SO many I have lined up 🎉
Up until she confirmed it was for a wedding. I was expecting it to be for a cult's last meeting get together.
You say that bakeries don't upcharge just because it's for a wedding but here in the US they definitely do. Like you could have a small wedding and order a simply decorated sheet cake for like 20 people, and you'll be charged like 3x what you'd be paying for that cake for any other occasion.
No, she said that *hers* doesn't. Also, if you want to 'buy a simply decorated sheet cake for 20 people' the price is the same no matter what. It's the effort involved in the wedding cake that makes it more expensive.
@@bluedragonfly8139My wife and I called places weeks apart describing an identical cake and got different prices depending on if we said it was for a wedding or for a birthday. Maybe hers don't. But plenty of places do so it's fair game to discuss. It's also just common sense that they would upcharge for "once in a lifetime" events that are likely to carry other costs such as more intensive decoration, service, and delivery, even if the customer *doesn't use or want those options.*
I assumed she was planning a murder tbh with the way she was dodging questions.
1:12 maybe if y’all didn’t see dollar signs when it comes to catering weddings, then people wouldn’t feel like they have to lie about their wedding cakes when ordering them.
What makes people think this baker is looking for suggestions about what she "should have done"?
See I’m not gonna get a cake that you can’t eat every part of. (With the exception of the supports. There’s no way to get around that. lol) but if I want flowers, ribbons, or whatever, I will pick a bakery and either pay to have edible ones made or ask the baker for alternative suggestions. Poisoning people is a no.
Aww the ending fumbled it a bit. I though she wanted to kill her ex who is now marrying another woman LOL
You can totally do asmr with that voice
I went to a restaurant a couple of years ago that put hydrangeas on their rice and seafood tower. I picked them all off and let the server know people shouldn’t be eating them, and he was like, “But I was told all the flowers in our garden are edible.” 😬
Like, I’m sure it won’t kill you. But this is an expensive meal, I would like for it not to make me sick? I couldn’t finish it, anyway… it wasn’t very good, even without the hydrangeas.
Hydrangeas probably made quite a few guests there sick... it's good you told them.
Babys breath isn’t toxic to people
Baby's breath (Gypsophila elegans) contains saponins that when ingested by animals may cause minor gastrointestinal upset. In the case of humans, the sap from baby's breath can cause contact dermatitis, (for those that are like myself, not entirely familiar with that term: its irritating to the skin and can result in itching and/or a rash.)
So yeaaaa definitely do not put it on any celebratory cakes of any kind, and generally keep it away from food 😅
This made my eye twitch, but love it!!! 😂😂😂
This random vid is just what I needed. Thanks algorithm!
I love (hate) when people are so sure of what they want but don't actually know what they're asking for. Like a maliciously ignorant version of Scarborough Faire. Like, ma'am, if you want a two tiered cake for 80 people with no supports transported to a venue, pale blue with no food color, and toxic flowers with nobody getting sick from it, and the whole thing has to taste like carrot cake and not like any of the other things you've asked to have decorating the cake, then you don't want a cake. You want a miracle. We are a bakery and not a church, we do not do miracles here. Sorry.
This made me chuckle, and your facial expressions were on point. W
The bakery was so polite until the customer show her trueself.hahahaha
One time i had to pull something that looked a bit like babies breath from a kids mouth, i live in the american heartland so some of you may have already realized what this actually was... poison hemlock. The mom told me she thought it was fine because it was babies breath... like no even that wouldnt be fine. Im an EMT and i explained that as i did so just to clarify and of course like any logical person she thanked me profusely because she knew enough about plants to realuze that when i pointed out the purple splotches she went white lol lucky the kid hadnt manged to ingest any toxin as it had literally not made contact with the inside of his mouth yet but just touching it to his lips could have killed him.
This would have been perfectly fine if it was Wednesday or Morticia Addams coming into the bakery and would have made perfect sense. However, since it was not, this is terrifying. lol.
With all due respect, I feel that vendors are aware that weddings are seen as a "once in a lifetime" event, and thus upcharge wedding cakes accordingly. Certainly some of the cost goes into delivery, complexity, consults and tastings etc. though. My partner and I found this to be the case for our extremely simple cake for our casual at home wedding celebration (we just wanted a single layer cake, orange frosting, two words in black for the theme we did, that's it, we added a couple decorations ourselves at the end.)
However if you want all the fixings, the fancy stuff, the delivery, I suspect the cost is more fair.
Even a normal stamdard cake would cost more just because it is for a wedding.
I'm like fighting the urge to tell a bakery that it's for a graduation/birthday because it'll be a backyard micro wedding and we'll have a very small budget for cake. Why take an 80$ cake (idk cake prices) and bump it up to 100$ for a wedding? My idea is that its a single tier strawberry cake with lemon frosting and some cornflowers (edible) sprinkled on it. Is that really too complicated? Idk I might bake it myself because I don't want to be rude to a bakery and lie but I also don't want to be swindled out of my money.
@@cuppy3874 You want a cake. If someone should ask for what occasion: A small gathering of old friends and family and you want to surprise everyone with a pretty cake. No lie there.
I think you should colour your hair pink! The pink hair net really looks good next to your complexion! 😅
"Next Chewsday." 😭
A side from the joke there is actually blue from a natural source , blue spirulina and butterfly pea flowers
I love this so much
I wish people would understand why wedding cakes are more expensive! I swear they think we just double the price for the W word
Ah, the joys of working with the public.
Butterfly pea wouldn't do the trick? To make the cake blue?
That might work in the icing, but any acidic ingredients in the batter would turn it pink.
Blue is notoriously difficult because it fades to purple/pink under the sun or fluorescent lights. Butterfly pea would do the same and is super expensive compared to food safe food coloring.
I'd probably go with blue spirulina.
@@aqacefan and red cabbage is the same. A little bit of acid and it's bright pink
@@jmas43I thought of spirulina too! Was it a seaweed, I think? I can't be sure enough of my memory. Saw it on the ingredients list of a 'natural food dye' being sold in a specialist confectionery ingredients store.
“Okay! Bacteria fart it is” 😂
This customer went from complaining about plastic straws because of microplastics to complaining about wood sticks being too eco-friendly.
FFS, make up your damn mind.
I guess all places like this start with love and passion then people like this come in on the regular and ruin the magic.
Reminds me of how clients talk to web developers
“I know the flower is poisonous, that’s why I want it on my cake.”
Your voice works like asmr on me ^^
“OK, bacteria fart cake it is!” 😜
"Okay, when do you need the cake by"
"I already told you - 2pm"
-- What I was expecting.
OMG I REMEMBER WAYCHING THAT ON TT I LOVED SOOO MUCHHHH
Immediate flashbacks to the metalocalypse episode with the Mercury cake
I'm on part 2 of the storm 1 on fb cant wait for the rest😂
Lol, this was funny! I had a chance to work for a bakery back when I was in high school. It was one of the best jobs I've ever had! Outside of construction, of course. 👍🏼👍🏼
Not the first time I've had customers ask me to do something dangerous or wildly difficult.
You persisted much longer than I would've!
During my wedding planning, we walked into a flower shop the week before the wedding and when we mentioned the wedding was in a week, I saw the ladys eyes fill with TERROR.
Thankfully we only needed a simple bouquet. It was pretty straightforward. We didn't do anything too crazy
why do i feel like its based on a wedding planner watching their ex-bf and best friend get married
Next thing you know you’re sued not once not twice but three times
One flower I would want to use on cake is lilacs, they both look and smell really nice, are actually edible and I think the taste could actuallly combine well with cake. It kinda tastes the way perfume smells
I love it when people stand shoulder to shoulder and face the wall when talking to each other. IT'S CALLED THE 180° RULE - LEARN IT!
I knew a girl who always ate babies breath flowers whenever she saw them on flower arrangements.
