It will be on July 17th and July 22th at 10pm and 1am .Here is the description from the Food Network. Douglas section is about the roulette cake.

World's Largest Cupcake
Duff and Geof create the World's Largest Cupcake for a charity bake sale in Minnesota. Mary Smith creates a Roulette Wheel cake for a Baltimore charity's "Casino Night." And the decorators create a cake that's a replica of the Charm City bakery

Avec des si on mettrait Paris en bouteille !

Your description, Luc, just made me remember a commercial for the episode. It was just the other night...they showed the "cupcake" cake in a commercial for an upcoming episode. Thanks!

I missed it last night (Sandy - I was out with a group of friends at an Argentinian restaurant!). But thankfully it will be repeated at 10 PM on the 22nd...WHEW! I can't wait to see our fearless OP leader on the tube. We're all star struck now T. ;D

But one question (something I've always wondered about my hometown Charm City Cakes)...how did the cake TASTE?!?!

Oh Pish!!!

A new job with limited internet access....and darn hot weather(my tiny apartment's electicity..it is either the A/C or the computer!

) I missed it!!!!

Can't belive I didn't catch the promo on Food Network as with all the junk on regular TV now I'm pretty much there or PBS if I'm watching. Oh well...it will air again sometime...

I would be curious about that too. We have a local bakery that makes Charm City-type cakes (they made the birthday cake in my avatar) but it's a hit or miss with the taste. They focus on aesthetics and design, so it's not uncommon for them to mass produce a bunch of cakes and freeze them.

I got this info. by doing some Googling.

holger: I am not switching so if the rest of you leave, it will be farewell. Makes no sense to create a new site instead of just posting here. have enough work related list servs and blogs to read and respond to. Certainly don't need ano Feb 24, 2015 16:47:51 GMT -5

holger: It really does seem as if the site is moribund. Too bad and as I no longer have emails for anyone on my computer just want to wish you all well. I do check periodically but mostly now go to slow travel and the France forum there. Apr 22, 2015 7:54:32 GMT -5
