Fabulous Cakes

TLC's "FABULOUS CAKES" is a behind the scenes look at the country's top bakeries. In each episode, the show will visit a new area of the country to witness the creation of three extraordinary custom cakes. Some of the best pastry chefs in the world share their tips and techniques as they conceive, construct, and deliver cakes that take the art of pastry above and beyond your everyday dessert.

In the premiere episode, "FABULOUS CAKES" goes inside the kitchens of three of the top bakeries in Las Vegas. Beginning at Freed's Bakery, they create a mammoth cake tableau for Ventriloquist Terry Fator, featuring Terry and his five favorite puppets. At Caked, owner Carolyn Portuondo makes a replica wooden sushi boat cake filled with hundreds of pieces of sushi, sashimi, and rolls - all made of cake. Finally, Vincent Pilon, Executive Pastry Chef for the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, produces a topsy-turvy wedding cake adorned with his signature chocolate flowers, ordered in true Vegas fashion, just two days before the wedding.
