We don't want to interrupt them. 123 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 2: But Emily, the cakes have lit candles on them. Tould 124 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 2: you it must be a. 125 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 3: Birthday, honeycakes, candles. It's also a full moon tonight. Oh 126 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 3: I get it. Now we're in ancient Greece. This is 127 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 3: a cell lebration for Artemis, the goddess of the moon. 128 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 3: This building is her temple. 129 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 2: Whoa, there's a goddess of the moon. But wait, Emily, 130 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 2: what does the moon have to do with cakes? They're 131 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 2: both frowned. I guess. 132 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 3: Actually, yes, you see, the ancient Greeks made round cakes 133 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 3: with honey and nuts in them to honor the goddess Artemis. 134 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 2: Oh, that's why those cakes are so good, exactly. 135 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 3: And they also put candles to light up the cake 136 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 3: and make it shine just like the actual moon. 137 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 2: Oh so birthday cakes are like full moons. But I 138 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 2: have a question. Why don't we blow out the candles? 139 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 2: Then that makes the cake not look like the moon anymore. 140 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 3: Good point, Louise. Blowing out candles and asking for a 141 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 3: wish actually comes from a popular belief. 142 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 2: You see. 143 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 3: People thought that smoke from candles carried prayers up to 144 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 3: the gods like Artemis. 145 00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 2: Oh that's cool. 146 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why the ancient Greeks are carrying the cake 147 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 3: with candles into the temple right now. So the candles 148 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 3: smoke can reach the goddess of the moon. 149 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 2: I bet the Greeks always wished from no more school. 150 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 3: Ever, is that what a good night would actually wish for? 151 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 2: Though? I don't know. But Emily, now that we know 152 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 2: where cakes come from, I want to know more about 153 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 2: cakes today.

First, we're gonna 174 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 3: start with a short conversation, and I'm pretty sure that 175 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 3: it is going to have many layers to it. 176 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: I see why you did that, and I like it. 177 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 3: Okay, So, Yolanda, you can make any cake you want, 178 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 3: from a car to a watermelon, a mountain, or even 179 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 3: a book. What do you like making most? 180 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: I love making objects, or especially food items, things that 181 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: people recognize easily and connect with. I love to make 182 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 1: the cake version of those items. A guitar or a 183 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: box of big box of Kraft dinner with a pot 184 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: of macaroni and cheese, or a giant baseball cap, things 185 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: of those nature. 186 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 2: A real sized cake guitar. I bet it tastes better 187 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 2: than it sounds. Yum. 188 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 3: It sounds like this guy is really the limit with 189 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 3: your imagination. Let's go back to the basics. Then, how 190 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 3: did you get into baking cakes? 191 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 2: Well? 192 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: I didn't really know a lot about cake artists specifically 193 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: when I was growing up. But I did love baking 194 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: and I have a sweet tooth, but I was also 195 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 1: really into art. I went to culinary school here in Toronto, 196 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: and I loved the experience. I asked the dean if 197 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,439 Speaker 1: I could do my co op placement at a bakery, 198 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 1: and he thankfully said yes. So I now realized, looking back, 199 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: that was a very bold move and that he changed 200 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 1: the course of my life. 201 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:13,719 Speaker 2: So I started to. 202 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: Work in a bakery. They gave me the chance to 203 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 1: work at every single station, from you know, pies to cookies, 204 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: and when I got to cake decorating, that's where I 205 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: truly fell in love. They weren't the type of cakes 206 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 1: like I make now. They were just you know, round 207 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: cakes of different flavors, iced in different ways, and I 208 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: just wanted to do more and more, and in the meantime, 209 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: it started to make cakes on the side in my 210 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: mom's kitchen when I worked at a bakery, and that 211 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: was back in two thousand and one, so it's been 212 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 1: a very long time, and. 213 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 3: That makes me wonder, what is the most amazing cake 214 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 3: you've made so far? 215 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: I made this cake because of my own kid, who 216 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,559 Speaker 1: was five at the time he's now ten, he was 217 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: a huge Lego enthusiast. So I decided to make Lloyd, 218 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 1: who's the lead character in Lego Ninjago like. He was 219 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: just obsessed with Ninjogo at the time, So I had 220 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: to get it right. But now I have, you know, 221 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: my son at my side, and he. 222 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 3: Knows Lloyd better than anyone. 223 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: So I needed to build up the legs. Then I 224 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: had to sort of recarve the torso of Lloyd to 225 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: make sure it fits perfectly. Then I had to make 226 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: the arms and the heads and of course his head. 227 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: And I have to say I loved Lego as a child. 228 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 1: As you can see from my work, I love building things. 229 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 2: Wow, I never thought that building cakes was just like 230 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 2: building Legos. I guess they both used blocks, but one's made. 231 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 3: A cake, That's right, Louise. That brings me to something 232 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 3: else I'm curious about, Yulanda. Did you do any other 233 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 3: cartoon characters for your son? 234 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: So there has been you know, Lego, Lloyd, there has 235 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: been SpongeBob, there's been his roadblocks, Avatar, there's been a 236 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: Minecraft Tea and t Block. You know, as soon as 237 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: he's done one bird cake, he's already telling me what 238 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 1: he wants next year. 239 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 3: He is just the luckiest boy, isn't he? And all 240 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 3: those cakes sound so fun to make, but quite challenging too, 241 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 3: I imagine. 242 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: Even with as many years as I have, which is 243 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: now twenty seven years of practice, cakes still make me 244 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: nervous at the end of the day. If you're trying 245 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: to control food, a lot of things can go wrong, 246 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: and there are a lot of things that you cannot control. 247 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: But the mistakes that come with baking really aren't that bad, 248 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: so there's nothing to be afraid of. You can have 249 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: so much fun and make so many different variations. It 250 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: feels like to me, it feels like play. 251 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 3: And this brings me to the last and most important 252 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 3: question of all. What makes you happy about being a 253 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 3: cake artist? 254 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 2: Huh? 255 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: This is These are great questions. My favorite thing about 256 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: being a cake decorator would be to see my client's reactions, 257 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: especially when I made cakes for younger kids or teens, 258 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: because they would just get so excited and to see 259 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: their vision come to life, or if it was something 260 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: their parents had chosen for them and it was a 261 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: surprise to them. Either way, I always love to see 262 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: their reaction. The number of people I met who said 263 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: You've inspired me to be creative again, even if it's 264 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: not in the vein of cake. It's just really heartwarming. 265 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: So that makes me feel really good. It makes me 266 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: feel really proud. 267 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 3: Thanks so much for chatting with us today, Yolanda. 268 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 2: That was so inspiring, Emily.

I don't 282 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: think guess thirty three. It's a pure guess, defectually correct 283 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: thirty three meters tall. 284 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 2: It was like six lords tall.

It was made to celebrate the holidays 291 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 2: in the city of Jakarta that's in Indonesia. 292 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: Oh wow. The fact that it was Indonesia and they 293 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: built this in heat is just mind blowing to me. 294 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 2: Okay, last question for tonight's trivia number three? What are 295 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 2: three ingredients that all cakes must have to be a cake? 296 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 3: Oh? 297 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: I feel like this is controversial now because I mean, 298 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: there's all types of vegan baking. But if it was me, 299 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 1: if it was me a butter, I. 300 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 2: Think the right answer could also be flour, sugar, and 301 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 2: baking powder. 302 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 1: Oh okay, yeah, so no that you're right, though, You're right, 303 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: those three things are great. 304 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 2: All right, Thanks so much for playing with us today, Yolanda. 305 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 3: How are you feeling?
