My, how times change.

Shortly after we opened back in 2007, we showcased at a wedding show in St Cloud.  We were asked NO LESS THAN 100 times – “Do you watch ‘Ace of Cakes’?”. A lot of “You’re just like Ace of Cakes!” as well.

At the time, we’d never heard of it.  We were left scratching our heads afterwards, and ended up subscribing to Dish Network so we could see what the big deal was.

Last night, we were showcasing at a different event (will blog about that eventually!), almost 2 years after that first wedding show… and the comments / comparisons were flying once again!

However, this time, EVERYONE was asking if we watched “Cake Boss”! Not a single question or comparison to “Ace of Cakes” this time!  Is Duff yesterday’s news already? Wow.

For the record, no.. I don’t watch Cake Boss. Tried once, it’s just way too over-the-top for my tastes.  I’m not a huge fan of reality TV anyway, and they REALLY play things up on Cake Boss.  I’d pick Duff and crew over that any day!

Truth be told though, I don’t watch much cake tv at all.  I live, breathe, and even DREAM cake… if I’m gonna watch TV, gimme House, CSI, or (guilty pleasure) Degrassi!
