It's a very funny show but also, like. In general, I don't learn well from watching videos; most of my baking leaps and bounds have come from people showing me how to do things or reading or trial and error. But for whatever reason, this show has made a massive difference in how I bake. Most important lessons:

1. If you bake three flatter cakes rather than one big one, it will bake faster and be more structurally sound.

2. How to buttercream properly.

3. How to fondant correctly.

4. The role of a freezer in structural integrity.

5. Vodka can be used with food colouring.
