Mods, I’m sorry, I had no clue where to put this. Please move it to the proper place if I goofed. ^^;
I watched this yesterday. [spoil]I still can’t beleive there wasn’t a Ratatouille cake. I mean, dude! It’s a COOKING contest![/spoil]
In case my username hasn’t given it away, I have a serious sweet-tooth so I can’t wait to see pictures or even footage of those Pixar-themed cakes!
Well, lasts night’s show was really fun but overly promotional. The cakes were a cross between Toy Story, A Bug’s Life, Monsters, Inc., and Finding Nemo; and their respective attractions. My favorite cakes were Finding Nemo and A Bug’s Life (I’m tied between the two). I can see why [spoil]the Nemo cake[/spoil] won. If you watch the show you won’t be surprised why they didn’t do Ratatouille, it was cross promotion for WDW, which doesn’t have a Ratatouille attraction. Over all it was a great watch, but the Monsters, Inc. guy kept calling Sulley, SOLLY! Speaking of Sulley…
Edited. I fixed the spoiler tags in your post. – Mitch
My sister and I watched the challenge take place a couple of nights ago, and I will admit that it was a fun little show to watch… if not a bit dramatic. Personally, I think that the “Bug’s Life” presentation should have earned the award, although I can see why the “other” cake got the gold in the end. It was a cute special, overall.
rachel - Oh, so that’s what the “cakes” in your username means! Ha. I always thought that it referred to the fact that you’re sweet. Heheh.

LOL! 
I thought so too!!! LOL!!!
I’ve looked everywhere for pictures and video, but can find none of those sweet, sweet-sounding cakes. drools
Ha-ha. Thanks…?
rachel - You’re welcome. 
Yeah, I looked all over the Food Network website, but I couldn’t find a thing. Typical. They might upload something in the future, though.

I’m glad [spoil]Finding Nemo[/spoil] won, it was beautiful and well thought-out, but I felt soooooo bad for [spoil]the guy who showed up in front of the judges with blue icing alllll over his shirt and holding his poor little salvaged Mike Wazowski.[/spoil] Kept smiling, though. 
How could I have missed this?? I’ve been so out of touch with t.v. lately (what, with the garbage that’s been airing these days…) I haven’t even bothered tuning in to the Food Network! What time did they air this Food Challenge? I only saw the Dinner Impossible episode when Robert Irvine cooks for Pixar studios. I get excited with these things.
EDIT: Never mind. Found the air date and time myself.
I wanted to see it, but I missed it. Anyone want to tell me the kind of cakes that were presented?
xD
The Star Swordsman - Sure thing! Four Pixar-themed cakes were created, including Finding Nemo, A Bug’s Life, Monster’s, Inc., and Toy Story. Feel free to reveal the spoiler (below) for the answer to which cake won the contest.
[spoil]And the winner is: Finding Nemo![/spoil]

they didn’t do ratatouille because they did the ones with attractions. [spoil]i thought the one with the spinning flik should’ve won. i mean, it was awesome![/spoil]
I’m just a little disappointed that there was no TI cake. Then again, I am a little biased.
And I’m disappointed there was no Ratatouille cake! I mean come on! COME ON~!
Hmmm, sounds like you feel the way I feel.
I caught a rerun of the episode, and [spoil]I was extremely disappointed that the Monsters, Inc. cake didn’t turn out as planned. The original idea was extremely cute[/spoil]. Coming down to the remaining cakes, though, I loved both the Finding Nemo and the Bugs Life cakes equally. I thought it was interesting on how [spoil]the Finding Nemo cake created coral with Marlin in it[/spoil].
Still disappointed there was no Ratatouille cake though… mainly because I wanted to hear one of the chefs yell, “You know what this needs? Saffron! A little saffron would MAKE this!”
