Extreme Cake Makers

Episode 8

More extreme challenges as this time Ben's asked for a cake 'take' on a much-loved motor for a surprise 21st birthday cake, and he's hoping replica of this boy racer's hot hatch will hit the spot. Made from two large vanilla sponges, wrapped in two kilos of fondant, Ben needs all his sculpting skills to replicate every pimped-up detail. Suzanne delves into circus history with a cake to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the founder of the modern circus, Philp Astley. Reflecting his 18th century circus show, her two-tiered extravaganza features fondant figurines taking a curtain call at the base, and a hand painted crowd, topped with an intricate figure of the great showman himself. In Essex, Eloise is going 'all in' with her next commission for a Craps Table cake to celebrate the wedding of a couple who recently married in Las Vegas.
