1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: It's all been building to this. The final bake day

2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:06,760
Speaker 1: was yesterday evening. It's time to try and find the

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:13,560
Speaker 1: winner today on our first ever this Christian O'Connor, the

5
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: all right? So the last three days me, Jack and

6
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: Pats have been trying to do a classic cake from

7
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 1: the Women's Weekly Children's Birthday Cake book. I'm not the

8
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: same person I was on the show yesterday. There's something

9
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: that's been knocked out of me, and it's when that

10
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: cake fell over yesterday at half nine. It's tilting like

11
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 1: the leaning tower of pizza, which a rocket ship shouldn't do.

12
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: It's it's not I try to do my best, but

13
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:48,480
Speaker 1: that looks a mess.

14
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 2: It's an amazing photo that you put on your Instagram,

15
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 2: a mid you got at mid fall. The photo that

16
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 2: was taken literally with the.

17
00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: Panic on my face when I realize the hours are

18
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: put into it, it was just fair. I've got an

19
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 1: uber in today so I could try and guarantee that

20
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: it wouldn't fall over. It yes, and even I was like,

21
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: what's the point It's fallen over in the kitchen. I

22
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: don't even know how it fell over.

23
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 3: Tom.

24
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 1: I tell you what, though, there is a clear, clear, clear, clear,

25
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: clear winner. As we would have thought. Anything Patsy does

26
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: always does it. One. Your train looks better than the

27
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:26,399
Speaker 1: one in the actual book.

28
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 2: I think that's too kind, is fantastic.

29
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: It makes me want to be ten, and it'd be

30
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 1: my birthday today. It is just if my mum made

31
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 1: that for me. You'd just be the happiest kid in

32
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: the world. Jack, yours looks great as well.

33
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 2: At least we all have an entry. We're got to

34
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 2: put a photo of each of them. The rocket, the

35
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 2: tip truck, and the train all have to go up

36
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 2: because I think we've I think we've out done ourselves.

37
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 2: I didn't expect him to be there.

38
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: Look, you two have outdone yourself. The rocket has done me. Okay,

39
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: I tried everything. I've got to be honest. I didn't

40
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: bother looking at the recipe after awhile, because there's not

41
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: a lot on there. Ye just go after pictures. It

42
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: has got some sort of bass that you've made with

43
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: it with like cardboard and tim foil.

44
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's meant to, yeah, meant to look like

45
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 2: rocket boosters. So I say that you've bought those in separately.

46
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 2: Are you going to try to reconstruct it?

47
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 1: The base isn't strong enough for some reason, it's extra thick.

48
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: Have you seen that rocket gets thicker at the bottom?

49
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 1: As the kids said, Dad, you've made a mountain. Okay,

50
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: kid's got hips, and those hips don't lie, Jack, So

51
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: I settle team obviously. Now Matt Preston's going to look

52
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: at all of these and pick a winner and have

53
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: his comments about what he actually thinks of all these cakes.

54
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 3: Okay. The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

55
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,639
Speaker 1: All right, let's say go live to Matt Preston, who

56
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: is in front of our three cakes. Matt described the carnage,

57
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: described the scene.

58
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 3: I don't know when I'm here to judge a cake

59
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 3: competition or stage and intervention. I'm looking at the three cakes.

60
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 3: You've got the train cake from Pats, We've got the

61
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 3: rocket cake and Christian, and we've got the tip truck

62
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 3: cake from Jack. Now let's start off with the train cake. Wow. Wow.

63
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 3: You know, you know, sometimes hard work pays off, and

64
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 3: it's paid off in this case. This is a magnificent train.

65
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 3: The red engine, a yellow and blue caboose loaded with

66
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 3: colored popcorn beautifully Duyde soundstraps, wheels made out of mint slices.

67
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 3: The detail here is amazing. Perhaps your cake is magnificent.

68
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 3: There's only one score I can give your cake, and

69
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 3: that's a ten on ten. It's so it's an example.

70
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 3: There's an example about why great cake design makes things

71
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 3: look brilliant. You've done a beautiful job. I've cut it open.

72
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 3: The cake looks homemade and it looks tender. You've done

73
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 3: a beautiful job. Okay, now the tip truck. You know, look,

74
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 3: you know what I always think to take the prection.

75
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 3: You look at it. No, immediately that's a tip truck

76
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 3: when you're half away there and what you've given us

77
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 3: on the table is absolutely a bright green trip tip truck.

78
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 3: I'm slightly concerned about the fingernails or like green fingernails

79
00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 3: on the front, and there's some sort of put on

80
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 3: the hope or else it's something else, but that's tips

81
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 3: out load with Lolly's bright green icing. I'm particularly liking

82
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 3: the piping of the lit winter and wipe that. That's

83
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 3: really impressive. Jack, It's it's a it's a solid seven

84
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 3: out of ten. Christian O'Connell, you've it looks like you've

85
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,359
Speaker 3: never baked before, you I haven't.

86
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: That's you're quite right. There is the first cake I've

87
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: ever baked.

88
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 3: And well, you know, and on which case you've got

89
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 3: to be you've got to be commended. I think I

90
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 3: think I'm sure Pat's probably baked her first kate, which

91
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 3: he was about five. And your kate looked like look

92
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 3: like it has been baked by by a five year old,

93
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 3: but a five year old without a five year old

94
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 3: with with with with aspirations. So you know, you know what,

95
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 3: you got to say that it's not very good. The icing,

96
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 3: the icing is comesy. It could easily be be a

97
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 3: kind of Game of Thrones tower you could we could

98
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 3: probably get away with that. Maybe maybe fashion the wings

99
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 3: into dragons. And really, I think you probably need to

100
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 3: stage what what's called in the Trader Cake intervention and

101
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 3: saying Gary Meagan and your house give you a lessons

102
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 3: to be a spunder a breeze.

103
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 1: Block, ideally a sponger man.

104
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 3: You know what the amazing is. Yeah, yeah, you gave

105
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 3: it a go. It is it did stand up. It

106
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 3: is vertical and and you know I'm being a bit

107
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 3: unfair here, and it's got the red cap on the top,

108
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 3: it's got the it's got the spikes on the side

109
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 3: with the candles, and I reckon if you were if

110
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 3: you were a small kid going turning up to your

111
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 3: party and your dad would bake that for you, you'd be

112
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,840
Speaker 3: beside yourself with excitement because because you know, the hard work,

113
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 3: the hours, the sweat.

114
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 1: The page. But a forty seven year old man's done

115
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 1: us over two days from mark a ten for the cake.

116
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 3: Well, well, if pats cakes are ten, then yours is

117
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:48,919
Speaker 3: probably a shoe, you know, And and that and that

118
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 3: I'd say, I've prayed, I've said two of those points

119
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 3: for having it.

120
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:57,120

122
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: Does it looks better than the one in the book?
