For a food preparation show ive rarely seen such a shambolic effort as the KitchenAid show today.
Machines with no electrical supply.
Nothing with which to wipe dough covered fingers.
No plate for cheesecake to be eaten from so presented to Daw-bags on a plate the size of a bin lid.
No spatula with which to spread icing, so lets just use a teaspoon and look REALLY unprofessional eh.
The whole thing looks like its been thrown together. And to top it theyve just made buttercream icing, put the icing sugar and butter in the bowl, switched on and guess what happened.... yep, you could hardly see them for a good 3 minutes as clouds of powder gushed up from the bowl and whilst the icing steadfastly refused to combine with the butter. Clearly the butter wasnt soft enough, even i know this and i've never made buttercream in my life. As we all watched for what seemed like hours, the guest started adding more and more pink food colouring, desperately trying to get the damned thing to come together. Eventaully it did, to the visible relief of all concerned. By this time the whole mess was the colour of blood. That's when Hallowee'n parties came up....
I'm behind a cushion for the rest of the hour.
