  • So nice of Jamie's upstairs neighbors to always drop a bowl down the hole in their floor whenever he demands it
  • @Slobber88
    Jamie has just the right amount of competence, incompetence and nervous breakdown to be completely relatable. As much as the recipes are a test for Jamie, Jamie is a test for the recipies: he just follows them. To the letter. If it fails, who's to blame? I'd say the recipe maker.
  • @MarshmellowFluff
    Every time this man uploads a video about making a cake, I already know it's going to be hilarious.
  • I didn't think the "I'm not driving" bit would be beat, but the Silver Fox hop bit is my new favorite.
  • @AceClown
    Jamie absolutely does not know what "pulse" mode on a blender is
  • @L-ff5kw
    Even though I know he’s going to do it…. I still laugh every time he jumps and announces “silver fox” 😅
  • @chloed.05
    Just something I've noticed with cakes with a filling: Make a little border of frosting (use a piping bag) and then add in the filling and you shouldn't have that problem! Just something I've noticed with cake decorating. I love your videos and they always bring a smile to my face!
  • @androckon
    My dog's name is Pancake and he is really enjoying this episode. He gets so happy every time Jamie says Pancake 😂
  • Another Quick and Easy nervous breakdown with Jaime and the sympathetic viewers who need to lie down after every death defying episode. This was a very weird concoction. 3 cheers for our intrepid host. I enjoy watching how his 'mise en place' just gets better and better. Hugs to you all Jim Mexico
  • @karatefella
    I'm in the UK. I love this fella - he makes a mess and he doesn't worry about it ! I've been watching your videos for a long time now and I'm always happy to see a new one !

    Jamie, for the love of all that is holy, please, please, please invest in some cardboard cake boards. They cost like $6 and will save you so much grief. While you are at it, go to the hardware store and buy some wooden dowels and a pair of garden shears. Put the cake on the cardboard board, and once stacked, insert dowels, snip off excess dowel with the garden shears. This is what pro bakers do (although some use giant plastic straw looking things instead of the wooden dowels). It will make your life much easier and baking will be far less stressful for you. Want to transfer the cake? Put your spatula under the cardboard and move it easily.
  • “The Silver Fox” and “The Whiz Kid” are truly the best names! You did great! Liam was an awesome contestant!
  • Hi Jamie! Some friendly old lady advice from way back when they had girls take a class called Home Ec. Before you decorate your cake, place two pieces of either wax paper or parchment paper...one piece on each side and dividing the platter in half. When you finish decorating or frosting, you slide each piece out from under the cake and voila! Your platter is clean 😁
  • @nanagaga2001
    "I'm waning you now this is gonna get messy." That disclaimer could go in front of every video you make lol. "Just not gonna give up without a fight" should be your tag line.
  • @GrumpiestElf
    I’m not seeing enough praise in here for good this cake turned out!!! You did so well Jamie, I was completely fooled by the thumbnail 😅
  • @tapanapatapa
    Fun fact! On 13:30 Jamie said something meaningless to stop the Silver Fox, but as a native Russian speaker I clearly hear the word "стой" ("stoy") and it literally means a request to stop.
  • @bondfool
    Liam was one of my favorite bakers on the show. Such a great, positive attitude.
  • @bflogal18
    One suggestion- get some cake strips. They are fabric strips you soak in water and wrap around the outside of your cake pans. Cakes come out perfectly flat (no dome), and the edges never over bake. I started using these a few years ago. Game changer!
  • @TerribleLotus
    The ants are probably watching saying, “yes, Yes, YES! Give us all the spilled powdered sugar!” 😂
