That's Food: Cake Testers
In this week’s episode of That's Food, podcast host and producer Bobby Kainth will be revealing the story behind…cake!
https://thatsfood.transistor.fm/episodes/is-cake-really-a-piece-of-cake
He first takes us through a blind taste test he conducted with two of his friends and then talks to one of the owners of The Art of Cake, Gloria Bednarz, and her assistant Christine Reeve, to discuss their journey in the cake business and their thoughts on the differences between inexpensive and expensive cakes. Is there a difference between an expensive cake and a cheap cake? Is it just the customization that’s expensive or is there a difference in flavour and quality? Can I make homemade cakes with great flavour without spending a lot of money? Bobby explores all of these questions and much more in this episode.
