COME ON IN, GUYS.

PLEASE, HAVE A SEAT.ALL RIGHT.

SO, THIS IS WHERE THE MAGIC HAPPENS THEN, IS IT?

THIS IS WHERE THE MAGIC HAPPENS.

SEAN AND NICKY COME IN TODAY.

AND THEY OWN A SHOP CALLED TEA & SYMPATHY.

SO, WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?

WE GOT A FUNNY, LITTLE ENGLISH RESTAURANT IN MANHATTAN.

WE CELEBRATE ALL THINGS BRITISH.

AND WE'D LIKE TO DO SOMETHING

TO CELEBRATE THE IMPENDING BIRTH OF THE NEXT ROYAL BABY.

OKAY.SO, WE THOUGHT WE'D HAVE

A LITTLE BIT OF A TEA PARTY, HAVE A FEW MATES OVER.

AND HOW BETTER TO CELEBRATE THE IMPENDING BIRTH

THAN A WONDERFUL CAKE BY THE CAKE BOSS?

IT CAN'T BE PINK. IT CAN'T BE BLUE.

BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW YET.

WE DON'T KNOW YET.BOY, GIRL-- WHO KNOWS?

SO, SEAN AND NICKY WANT ME TO MAKE A CAKE

THAT WOULD BE GOOD ENOUGH TO GIVE TO A ROYAL.

YOU DON'T KNOW IF IT'S GOING TO GO TO A LITTLE PRINCE

OR A LITTLE PRINCESS, SO IT CAN'T BE TOO BOYISH OR GIRLISH.

IT IS DEFINITELY VERY CHALLENGING.

BUT I'M INTRIGUED.

AND IF IT'S SOMETHING FOR THE ROYALS.

IT'S, LIKE, FORGET ABOUT IT. IT'S LIKE A DREAM COME TRUE.

SO, WHAT ARE YOU THINKING, THEN?

YOU KNOW...

NO PRESSURE, IT'S ONLY FOR THE ROYALS.

YOU CAN TELL SEAN AND NICKY TAKE IT SERIOUS.

THE ROYALS STILL MEAN A LOT OF THEM.

AND EVEN THOUGH THIS IS NOT GOING TO THE ROYALS,

IT'S STILL AN AWESOME CAKE THAT I WANT TO DO.

AND IT'S AN HONOR FOR ME.

I'M NOT EXACTLY SURE WHAT I'M GOING TO DO.

BUT I WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN.

OH, WE KNOW YOU WON'T LET US DOWN.

PLEASURE TO MEET YOU.LOVELY TO MEET YOU.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!AND THEN WE'LL HAVE A SLICE EACH

AND WE'LL WASH IT DOWN WITH A NICE CUP OF TEA.

HOW'S THAT?SPOT OF TEA OR A CUP OF TEA?

A CUP OF TEA.EITHER, BOTH.

A POT OF TEA, EVEN.

HOW'S MY ACCENT?

DREADFUL.

I'M HOPING YOUR CAKES ARE MUCH BETTER.

THEY'VE GOT TO BE, REALLY.

SAY POT...POT...

OF... OF...

TEA. TEA.

IT'S PRETTY GOOD.

BUT DEFINITELY CAKE BOSS, NOT ENGLISH-ACCENT BOSS.

SO, I JUST HAD A CONSULTATION WITH A BRITISH FAMILY.

THEY OWN A TEA ROOM IN NEW YORK CITY.

THEY WANT ME TO MAKE A CAKE FOR THE ROYAL BABY SHOWER.

INSPIRED BY IT, I MEAN, IT'S REALLY NOT FOR THE ROYALS.

BUT, YOU KNOW, THEY ARE REALLY INTO IT.

AND IT'S A BIG DEAL.

AND THEY WANT ME TO MAKE THIS GREAT CAKE.

ALL RIGHT. WE'LL DO A TRADITIONAL ENGLISH CAKE.

IT'LL BE THIS BIG, BOILED, AND COVERED IN GRAY TWEED.

I'VE DONE BABY CAKES BEFORE,

BUT NOTHING FIT FOR A PRINCE OR PRINCESS.

IN ORDER TO MAKE THIS CAKE LOOK ROYAL,

I WANT TO DO LIKE A TIERED CAKE.

AND I WANT TO DO SOME DIFFERENT DETAILS--

PEARLS, LACE, CROWNS, JEWELS, BLING.

I WANT TO DO SOME BOWS.

I WANT TO DO A LITTLE BIT OF PIPING.

VERY REGAL, VERY INTRICATE DETAILS.

SOMETHING AWESOME.

CHEECH, CHONG, AND CHEECH, GO MAKE THE FILLING.

COME ON, PASTRY GEEK.

TALLY-HO.

SO, FOR THE FILLING,

WE WANTED TO DO LIKE A TRADITIONAL ENGLISH TORTE.

TRADITIONAL TORTES

ARE SOMETHING THAT HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR CENTURIES.

AND THEY'RE MADE WITH BASIC INGREDIENTS

EVERYONE COULD AFFORD.

OH, THAT'S BUTTERSCOTCH!

SO WE'VE SAID, "LET'S DO A BUTTERSCOTCH

WITH A COOKIE CRUMBLE IN IT

WITH RASPBERRIES WITH A VANILLA CAKE."

THE FILLING IS REALLY, REALLY GOOD.

THE BRITS KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING.

HEY, WHAT'S UP, BUDDY?

YO, WHAT'S HAPPENING, MAN? GOOD TO SEE YOU.

HOW ARE YOU?GOOD TO SEE YOU.

HOW'S EVERYTHING GOING?

EVERYTHING'S GREAT, BRO.NICE RIDE!

PRETTY COOL, RIGHT?I LIKE IT.

DO YOU?

GREAT PAINT JOB.

SO, TODAY, I'M DOING A CONSULTATION

WITH MARY'S BROTHER-IN-LAW, CHRIS.

AND I'M AT HIS AUTO BODY SHOP.

HOW'S MY SISTER?

SHE DRIVING YOU CRAZY STILL, OR WHAT?

EVERY DAY, EVERY DAY.

MY FAVORITE PART ABOUT CHRIS IS THAT HE GIVES IT BACK TO MARY.

YOU KNOW WHAT? I LOVE THE WAY YOU TWO BANTER.

WATCHING MARY AND CHRIS

GO BACK AND FORTH BICKERING AMONGST EACH OTHER,

IT'S WHAT I GET FOR THE HOLIDAYS.

EVERYBODY, YOU KNOW, MIGHT GET

CHRISTMAS PRESENTS, THIS AND THAT.

I GET TO SEE MARY AND CHRIS FIGHT.

SO, WHAT'S GOING ON? WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU, BRO?

I GOT MY 30-YEAR ANNIVERSARY COMING UP.

MAYBE DO A CAKE TO CELEBRATE 30 YEARS IN BUSINESS.

CHRIS WANTS A CAKE TO CELEBRATE HIS SHOP'S 30th ANNIVERSARY.

SO, HE HAD THIS OLD HOT ROD AT HIS SHOP.

AND I JUST THOUGHT THAT THAT WOULD BE THE PERFECT INSPIRATION

FOR WHAT I WANTED TO DO.

I THINK MAYBE WE CAN DO LIKE A COOL PAINT JOB ON A CAKE.

I MEAN, JUST, RIGHT OFF THE BAT, YOU KNOW,

YELLOW POP WITH THE FLAMES GOING ON IT AND THE CHROME.

IT'S REALLY GOING TO BE AN AWESOME CAKE.

HEY, GREAT SEEING YOU, MY FRIEND.

GOOD TO SEE YOU.GOOD SEEING YOU.

YOU GOT IT, BRO.

ALL RIGHT. THANKS, MAN.

SO, THIS WEEK, I GOT A CAKE FOR CHRIS, MARY'S BROTHER-IN-LAW.

I ONLY LIKE HIM FOR ONE REASON. HE HANDLES MARY.

ONE OF THE ONLY PEOPLE!

BECAUSE THEY'RE SIMILAR.

HE MAKES THANKSGIVING FUN.

HE DOES.

SO, HE WANTS US TO DO LIKE A HOT ROD CAKE.

I WAS JUST AT HIS SHOP, AND HE SHOWED ME THIS CAR.

I LIKE THIS.

I THINK WE MAKE THE FRONT END OF THIS.

THAT'S WHERE ALL THE PERSONALITY IS.

SO, I TALK WITH MY TEAM.

AND WE DECIDE TO DO THE FRONT END OF THE CAR,

BECAUSE THAT'S REALLY WHERE THE PAINT JOB WAS.

AND WE'RE GOING TO MAKE THIS THING BIG.

IT'S ALMOST GOING TO BE THE SAME SIZE

AS THE FRONT END OF THE CAR.

THIS CAR'S GOT TO BE DETAILED

BECAUSE THIS GUY KNOWS HIS AUTO BODIES.

NEEDS A GOOD PAINT JOB, TOO.

LIKE AN OLD-SCHOOL FLAME PAINT JOB.

THE AIRBRUSHING IS GONNA MAKE THIS CAKE.

AND WE'VE DONE A LOT OF GREAT THINGS WITH OUR AIRBRUSH.

SO I KNOW I CAN MATCH ANY PAINT JOB THAT CHRIS HAS DONE.

CUT THE BOX. LET'S GET THE BOX GOING.

AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO FILL IT UP.

DANNY, GET SOME SHEETS.

WE COME UP WITH THE STRUCTURE FOR THIS CAKE,

WHICH IS THE WHOLE FRONT OF THE CAR.

AND IT'S GOING TO BE CHALLENGING BECAUSE THIS A BIG CAKE.

THAT THING IS PROBABLY GOING TO WEIGH

CLOSE TO ABOUT 1,000 POUNDS.

SO WE COME UP WITH A GAME PLAN, AND WE START FILLING IT.

ALL RIGHT.

WE'RE GONNA FILL THIS. ONE, TWO, THREE.

WE'RE STACKING LAYERS OF COOKIE-AND-CREAM FILLING

AND SPONGE TO MAKE THE SIDE FENDERS.

COME ON, RALPH. KEEP GOING.

I TOLD MY GUYS TO PUT THE LAYERS OF CRISPY TREATS

IN BETWEEN THE SPONGE

TO SUPPORT THE WEIGHT OF THE CAKE LAYERS.

NOW, HOW MUCH CAKE IS YOUSE GONNA PUT UNDER THIS THING?

MAN, THIS THING IS GONNA BE HEAVY.

DUDE, WE'RE A BAKERY, MAN. THIS IS WHAT WE DO.

LAYERS, CARVING.

I HONESTLY DIDN'T REALIZE HOW MUCH CAKE WE ENDED UP USING.

THIS HOT ROD IS GOING TO END UP BEING LIFE-SIZE.

LET'S DIRTY-ICE THIS!

I'M WORRIED ABOUT THIS OVER HERE.

LET'S COVER THE--BUD, BUD, BUD.

THAT'S NO GOOD.

OH, THE WHOLE THING'S COMING APART.

YEAH, BECAUSE LOOK HOW MUCH BUTTERCREAM'S IN THERE TOO.

THAT'S WHY.

WELL, NOW WHAT DO WE DO?

THAT'S NO GOOD.

OH, THE WHOLE THING'S COMING APART.

DANNY...

WHY DIDN'T YOU USE SOLID RICE KRISPIES HERE?

NOW THIS WHOLE FENDER'S GONNA CRACK AND FALL OFF.

THAT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN MY FAULT!

SO INSTEAD OF PUTTING THE CRISPY TREATS IN BETWEEN THE SPONGE

TO SUPPORT THE WEIGHT OF THE CAKE LAYERS,

HE PUT ALL CAKE AND BUTTERCREAM,

WHICH COLLAPSED WITH TOO MUCH WEIGHT.

SO, IT DIDN'T HAVE THE SUBSTANCE TO STAY TOGETHER.

THIS SIDE, YOU USED ALL SOLID PIECES,

IT'S FINE.

THAT SIDE-- BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO BE CHEAP,

AND NOW WE GOT TO DO TRIPLE WORK.

THIS WHOLE CAKE IS COMING APART.

IN ORDER TO FIX THIS, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THE TAKE

THE WHOLE PART OF THE BACK FENDER OFF...

YEAH, WE'RE NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO USE NONE OF THIS.

'CAUSE THIS ALL FALL APART.

...AND RESTACK IT WITH CRISPY TREATS AND CAKE

SO THAT THE WEIGHT IS DISTRIBUTED EVENLY.

HEY, BUD.

WHAT IS THIS? FLAMES.

WHAT ARE YOU MAKING?PAINT JOB.

FOR WHO?

FOR YOUR BROTHER-IN-LAW.

WHAT IS HE ASKING YOU FOR, ALL THESE CAKES,

MY BIG-MOUTHED BROTHER-IN-LAW?

LISTEN, I LIKE YOUR BROTHER-IN-LAW.

OH, STOP IT!

SO, MARY COMES IN WHILE WE'RE WORKING ON THE CAKE.

AND SHE STARTS TALKING SMACK ABOUT CHRIS.

AND, HONESTLY, THEY LOVE EACH OTHER.

CHRIS MIGHT HAVE A BIG MOUTH, BUT HE'S ALL HEART.

MY BIG-MOUTHED BROTHER-IN-LAW,

MARONNA MIA!HE KEEPS YOU GROUNDED.

NO, HE DOESN'T. I DON'T EVEN ANSWER HIM.

HE MAKES ME LOOK QUIET.

OH, MY GOD. WHAT IS THE FLAME?

'CAUSE HE OWNS AN AUTO BODY SHOP?

YEP, THAT'S A PAINT JOB.

MARY ACTUALLY SEEMED A LITTLE SURPRISED

AT WHAT A NICE CAKE WE'RE MAKING FOR CHRIS.

I'LL CALL HIM RIGHT NOW.YOU CAN CALL HIM RIGHT NOW.

HE IS A BIG-MOUTH.

SO I IMMEDIATELY CALL CHRIS UP BECAUSE, YOU KNOW,

I WANTED HIM TO GO BACK AT HER, SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

CALL HIM.

I'M GONNA COME DELIVER THIS CAKE WITH MY-- SHUT UP!

SHUT UP!

I'M GONNA-- I'M GONNA--

THEY SAID THAT YOU'RE A HOT ROD!

I GO, "YOU'RE FAT BASTARD, NEVER MIND THE HOT ROD!"

I SPEAK THE TRUTH, MY BROTHER-IN-LAW.

I SPEAK THE TRUTH.

I CAN'T HEAR YOU! YOU'RE BREAKING UP!

I HUNG UP ON HIM.

DON'T ANSWER IF HE CALLS BACK.

ALL RIGHT. SO, I'M GOING,

DON'T MAKE IT UNEVEN.

IT'S LIKE TWO BREASTS, THEY HAVE TO BE PERFECT SIZE.

SO, WE'RE WORKING ON THIS ROYAL BABY CAKE.

AND WE CAN'T PICK A COLOR 'CAUSE

WE DIDN'T KNOW THE GENDER OF THE KATE AND WILLIAM'S BABY YET.

SO I'M GONNA KIND OF KEEP IT SIMPLE,

IN THE MIDDLE, CLASSY AND REGAL.

SO WE'RE COVERING THE TIERS WITH IVORY FONDANT.

AND THEN WE'RE GONNA STACK THEM UP.

EACH TIER NEEDS A LOT OF INTRICATE DETAILS.

I'M THINKING, LIZ,

I DEFINITELY WANT TO USE SOME OF THAT LACE STUFF WE HAVE

BECAUSE I THINK THAT FEELS SO ROYAL.

MM-HMM.SO, ME AND LIZ

HAVE THIS NEW LACE STUFF THAT WE WORK WITH.

YOU BASICALLY TAKE A LACE STENCIL

AND SPREAD THE EDIBLE CAKE LACE INTO A FORM.

AND THEN YOU STICK IT IN THE OVEN.

AND YOU BAKE IT A LITTLE BIT.

IT'S LIKE SUGAR LACE THAT'S FLEXIBLE.

I MEAN, IT LOOKS SO COOL.

HOW DID WE MAKE OUT?NOT SO GOOD.

THE ONLY PROBLEM IS, IS YOU GOT TO BE ABLE

TO GET IT OUT OF THE MOLD.

YOU KNOW, IT DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK.

IT'S A LITTLE TEMPERAMENTAL.

THESE ARE NOT WORKING AS WELL AS I WOULD LIKE THEM TO.

YOU KNOW, YOU WANT TO MAKE IT REAL THIN

'CAUSE YOU WANT IT TO BE A COOL, INTRICATE PATTERN.

BUT IF IT'S TOO THIN, SOMETIMES IT BREAKS.

IT'S A LITTLE DELICATE.

SOMETIMES, EVERYTHING GOES RIGHT.

BUT THIS WEEK, I FEEL LIKE THE CAKE GODS

ARE WORKING AGAINST ME.

I MEAN, LOOK AT THIS, LIZ.

DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT'S GONNA TAKE US

IF WE HAVE TO PIPE THIS?

I KNOW. I REALLY DON'T WANT TO.

NOT ONLY THAT, BUT WE'LL NEVER BE ABLE

TO PIPE IT THIS ACCURATE.

MNH-MNH.IF I HAVE TO HAND-PIPE THIS,

IT'S GONNA TAKE FOREVER.

IF WE CAN'T GET THIS TO WORK,

WE MIGHT TO SCRAP THE WHOLE DESIGN AND START OVER.

BUT WE GOT TO DELIVER THIS CAKE TODAY,

SO STARTING OVER IS NOT AN OPTION.

I MEAN, LOOK AT THIS, LIZ.

I KNOW.

I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL WE'RE GONNA DO.

THE ONLY PROMISING THING IS THAT I STILL HAVE ONE IN THE OVEN.

IT'S A DIFFERENT MOLD, BUT IT LOOKS MORE PROMISING.

FOR THIS ROYAL CAKE,

WE'RE TRYING A DIFFERENT MOLD TO CREATE SUGAR LACE.

IT'S GOT A LITTLE DEEPER CAVITY.

AND WE'RE GONNA SEE HOW THAT BAKES OFF.

ALL RIGHT. LET ME SEE.

JUST BE GENTLE.

NO MAN HANDS.

AH, AH, AH-- HA HA!

AH, THIS IS BEAUTIFUL, LIZ.

SEE, THESE WORK.LOOK AT THIS.

LOOK HOW BEAUTIFUL THIS IS.

IT LOOKS ROYAL.THANK GOD.

SO NOW WE CAN START CRANKING THESE OUT.

AND THIS LACE DESIGN IS GONNA LOOK AWESOME.

ALL RIGHT. NOW WE JUST GOT TO MAKE A BUNCH OF THEM.

VERY LACY.YEAH, REAL CLASSY.

ALL RIGHT, LIZ, I WANT TO DO THE PEARLS OVER HERE.

I WANT PEARLS AND IVORY AND GOLD TOUCHES ALL OVER THIS CAKE.

SO, WE HAVE THIS BEAUTIFUL, EDIBLE GOLD PAINT

THAT WE'RE BRUSHING ONTO THE MEDALLION

AND THE EDIBLE BUTTON

THAT DANNY'S MAKING OUT OF YELLOW FONDANT

FOR THESE CUTE BABY BOWS.

BEAUTIFUL.I GOT TO TELL YOU,

THE MORE WE START PUTTING ON,

THE BETTER THIS CAKE IS LOOKING.

WE'RE DOING SOME BOWS.

AND I'M ADDING SOME OF THE LITTLE LACE DETAILS IN BETWEEN.

IT'S REALLY STARTING TO LOOK COOL.

WILL SIR BE TAKING HIS TEA NOW?

POUR IT FOR ME, RALPHIE.

VERY GOOD, SIR.

THANK YOU, RALPHIE BOY.

I HAVE SO MUCH TEA.

THAT'S ENOUGH.NO.

IT MUST BE TEA TIME.

NOPE, NOPE, SIT UP STRAIGHT, SIR.

THERE WE ARE-- OH, CHIN BACK, THERE WE GO.

NEVER LOOK DIRECTLY AT ANYTHING.

MM.

NOW IT'S TIME TO MAKE THE FINAL TIER.

I'M GOING TO CREATE A TUFTED LOOK

TO RESEMBLE A QUILTED BABY BLANKET.

BUT BECAUSE THIS JUST ISN'T ANY BABY,

THIS QUILT WILL HAVE GOLD BUTTONS,

WHICH WILL BE ELEGANT AND OPULENT.

THIS CAKE IS FIT FOR A PRINCE OR A PRINCESS.

I THINK IT LOOKS ROYAL, MAJESTIC.

THE BOWS ARE REAL NICE.

THE BUTTONS ARE BEAUTIFUL.

I LOVE THE LACE. I LOVE THE DETAILS.

AND I KNOW THAT THEY'RE GONNA LOVE IT.

AWESOME JOB, GUYS.

ALL RIGHT. COME ON.

♪ OH, BRITANNIA ♪

♪ BRITANNIA, RULE THE WAVES ♪

LIZA'S GOT ONE. PUT...

OKAY.

SO, WE SHOW UP AT TEA & SYMPATHY,

AND IT'S A CUTE, LITTLE BRITISH TEAHOUSE.

I BRING THE CAKE IN WITH FRANKIE.

WATCH YOURSELF, WATCH YOUR BACK, FRANKIE.

WOW!UH-HUH. HUH-HUH.

WOW, LOOK AT THIS!

AH, LOOK AT THIS!

THAT'S AMAZING!Nicky: WOW, LOOK!

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK, HUH?

THAT LOOKS SPECTACULAR!

DOES IT LOOK ROYAL-ESQUE?

OH, MOST DEFINITELY.

CROWNING GLORY.

ABSOLUTELY.

IS THAT ICING?

UH-HUH.WOW!

LOOKS AMAZING.

COULDN'T BELIEVE THAT THE GOLD LACE WAS ACTUALLY ICING.

SUCH A SPECTACULAR CAKE

THAT REALLY ENCAPSULATES THE WHOLE ROYAL THING

WITHOUT BEING TOO OVER-THE-TOP.

I MEAN, WE'RE OVER-THE-TOP WITH THE UNION JACKS

ENOUGH AS IT IS, SO...

YOU SPEAK FOR YOURSELF ABOUT BEING OVER-THE-TOP!

THERE WE GO. GO HAND THAT ROUND.

HE COMPLETELY NAILED THE ENGLISH FILLING

AND THE ENGLISH TASTE OF THE CAKE, ACTUALLY.

GOD, SAVE THE QUEEN!

GOD, SAVE THAT QUEEN!THE QUEEN!

AND GOD SAVE THE REST OF THE CAKE FOR ME.

AMEN.

NOW THAT WE GOT OUR FENDER REPAIRED,

IT'S TIME TO COVER THIS HOT ROD IN YELLOW FONDANT

SO WE CAN MATCH THE REAL HOT ROD.

AND IT'S NOT AN EASY THING.

THIS IS A BIG CAKE.RALPH.

WE NEEDED SOME BIG SHEETS OF FONDANT.

NOW IT'S TIME TO CREATE THE FLAMES.

WE COULD AIRBRUSH IT ON.

MY PLAN IS TO AIRBRUSH THE FLAMES USING A STENCIL.

BECAUSE I KIND OF FEEL LIKE

THAT'S HOW A PAINT JOB WOULD BE, RIGHT?

OKAY. LET'S SEE MY FLAMES.

THAT LOOKS PRETTY CRAPPY.

THE STENCIL USUALLY LOOKS GREAT ON A FLAT SURFACE.

BUT WHEN YOU GO AND BEND IT ON A FENDER

AND TRY TO AIRBRUSH IT,

IT DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK.

AND I DID IT. AND IT LOOKED...EH.

WE'RE GONNA FREE-HAND IT.

BRING THE AIRBRUSH OVER. LET'S DO IT.

SO I'M THINKING TO MYSELF,

"WELL, WHAT I JUST TRY TO FREE-HAND AIRBRUSH IT?"

SO I FREE-HAND AIRBRUSH IT, AND IT'S STILL NOT LOOKING GOOD.

THIS IS JUST ONE OF THOSE WEEKS

WHERE ANYTHING THAT COULD GO WRONG WITH THE CAKE DOES.

IF I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUT THESE FLAMES ON,

THERE'S GONNA BE NO CAKE.

THAT LOOKS PRETTY CRAPPY.

IF I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUT THESE FLAMES ON,

THERE'S GONNA BE NO CAKE.

I MEAN, IF I DO BUTTERCREAM THIS,

I COULD DEFINITELY TAKE THIS CHUNK TO HERE

AND GET IT COVERED AND SMOOTH AND READY.

THERE'S NO WAY I'M STARTING OVER.

THIS CAKE IS TOO BIG.

AND I AIN'T GOING OUT LIKE THAT.

MY NEXT IDEA IS TO DO IT IN BUTTERCREAM.

SO, BASICALLY, WHAT I NEED TO DO

IS COVER ALL THE RED PORTIONS UP IN BUTTERCREAM, THE FLAMES.

AND THEN GO WITH A LITTLE PIECE OF CARDBOARD AND SMOOTH IT OUT

AND STEAM IT AND TRY TO GET IT, YOU KNOW, PERFECTLY SMOOTH.

I THINK IT LOOKS GOOD ALREADY.

LOOKS 100 TIMES BETTER.

YEAH, IT'S MUCH CLEANER.

AS SOON AS I STARTED PUTTING THE BUTTERCREAM ON

AND SMOOTHING IT, I KNEW IT WAS GONNA WORK.

AT LEAST IT LOOKS LIKE FLAMES NOW.

IT MIGHT NOT BEEN OUR FIRST PLAN,

BUT WE FIGURED IT OUT.

AND THIS CAKE IS GONNA LOOK AWESOME.

IT'S TIME TO ADD THE FINISHING TOUCHES--

BLACK FONDANT FOR THE ENGINE,

STRIPES OF A SILVER FONDANT FOR THE GRILLE,

SILVER FONDANT FOR THE HEADLIGHTS.

AND JESSICA'S OUTLINING THE FLAMES IN ORANGE

TO MAKE THEM REALLY POP.

A LITTLE STEAM FOR SHINE, AND BOOM,

IT'S A HOT ROD CAKE, BABY!

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?

I LIKE THE ENGINE STICKING OUT.

OH, THAT LITTLE, UH, INTAKE?

IT LOOKS LIKE A HOT ROD PAINT JOB FOR AN AUTO BODY.

I THINK-- I THINK IT FITS.

I MEAN, THE FLAMES LOOKED AWESOME,

JUST THE SHEER SIZE OF IT.

IT REALLY LOOKED LIKE THE FRONT END OF THAT CAR.

HOPEFULLY MARY DOESN'T KILL CHRIS AT THE DELIVERY.

I HOPE CHRIS DOESN'T KILL MARY AT THE DELIVERY.

ALL RIGHT. LET'S GET IT OUT OF HERE.

ALL RIGHT. READY?

ONE, TWO, THREE.YEAH!

NOW WE GET TO CHRIS',

WE GOT TO CARRY THIS CAKE IN.

YEAH, I'M HOLDING IT.ONE, TWO, THREE.

AND LET ME TELL YOU, IT'S NOT EASY.

GO A LITTLE BIT THIS WAY.

FREAKIN' CHRIS CAN'T EVEN GET US WOOD FLOOR?

CHRIS, FIX THE FLOOR!

SHUT UP!

FIX THE FLOOR!

WHAT DO YOU THINK?I THINK IT'S GORGEOUS!

THANK YOU SO MUCH.UH-HUH.

YOU COULDN'T HAVE DID A BETTER A JOB.

YOU LIKE IT?YES.

WHEN I FIRST SAW THE CAKE, I FELT SHOCK.

I DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD BE THAT BIG AND THAT DETAILED.

I LOVE IT. I CAN'T BELIEVE THE DETAIL IN IT,

BETWEEN THE GRILLE MATCHING THE GRILLE ON THE CAR,

THE FLAMES, AND THE COLOR.

WE PARK IT RIGHT NEXT TO THE HOT ROD.

AND SEEING THEM SIDE-BY-SIDE, I KNOW WE DID GOOD.

30 YEARS IN BUSINESS, HUH?

THANK YOU SO MUCH, BUDDY.ARE YOU KIDDING?

I COULDN'T ASK FOR MORE.

YEAH, HAVING ME AS YOUR SISTER-IN-LAW IS ENOUGH FOR YOU.

THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A PARTY...

WELL, IT IS A PARTY....AND YOU BROUGHT THE RAIN!

YOU CAME WITH THE RAIN!

WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?IF THE SUN IS SHINING.

I KIND OF FEEL BAD FOR BRINGING MARY TO CHRIS,

YOU KNOW, ON A CELEBRATORY DAY LIKE THIS.

BUT IT'S TOO ENTERTAINING FOR ME, CHRIS.

YOU SHUSH YOUR MOUTH.YOU BE QUIET.

SO, WHO WANTS TO EAT SOME CAKE?

YEAH!

WE DO!

ONCE YOU GET THE FIRST ONE OUT,

THEN IT'S ALL GOOD.

MMM.

ALL RIGHT?Woman: IT IS GOOD.

TELL ME ABOUT THE CAKE, CHRIS.

WELL, THE CAKE WAS-- OH, REALLY?

WONDERFUL.

AAH!

SEE, AND I DID IT NICELY.

THANK YOU.I DID IT NICELY.

THANK YOU.AND GENTLY.
