I loved both cakes! They were both EXTREME! But my favorite one was Mary and Courtney's cake. I thought they did a really amazing job. I wish James wouldn't of went home, I really like his work!

And I don't think they are hard on Bronwen, She has won so many challenges.

Don't worry MyDiwa, I feel exactly the same way.

I have to say I love Bronwen, I like her the best. Mary is very talented but I think they choose her to win all the time and it's really getting sickening, or maybe I'm just jelious of her talent. I also think they need different judges, James doesn't need to stop making flowers he's awsome at it. That would be like saying Nestles needs to stop making chocolate. He does need to incorporate the flower making with something else though. Mary and Courtney's cake was better and more detailed even without the glow in the dark gel, you have to give credit where credit is due regardless of who you like or who you want to win. Mary and Bronwen are both awesome at what they do as are the rest of them. It is a contest and it's up to the judges alone. I do agree it would be nice if we could vote like American Idol. LOL... that would surely change the way things have gone. The best has won each time, they have been fair and right on with the scoring and judging. JMO

I agree with the fact that James shouldn't stop making flowers just cause one judges dont like them. I love Kerry Vincent, but then again I can see that James has a flair for flowers that are not only beautiful, but difficult to make. Every artist has his thing, and that is his.

As for the cakes, I love Browen Style, is always so clean.

I think Bronwen's 1st cake should have won. It was amazing, but her wedding cake was horrible. Mary is very talented but Her competitive side comes out quickly and sometimes that can bite you in the butt, like it did with the wedding cake. She ran out of the car so fast that she had no information what so ever. James is fabulous, honestly so far they have gone home in the right order, IMO.

I do not like Courtney, her comments are always out of place and just akward. James is such a sweet young man and Bronwen is a sweetheart, and she is awesome. I do love Mary because she is self taught and very polite. I wish Bronwen and James had won, they really work as a team and create an awesome new design cake that spun and had fireworks ans such in no time.

It seams to me that the judges have always a thing against Bronwen? Am I the only one that thinks so?

That would be about right....I would also prefer to be shot with a bb gun over a nuclear warhead LOL......lets get really crazy here!

I think in this scenario, though, the tonic water is the bb gun...

I love Bronwen also! I have to admit, though, she seems more caddy in her comments when discussing everyone else than usual! Maybe it's just the stress of winning the title and money. I love her and my husband pointed it out and I snapped at him! Ha ha ha!

No offense..but I don't get the comparison between tonic water and fireworks. Tonic water (Canada Dry) is made for human consuption. I don't think they designed fireworks to be lit next to your food. Am I missing something?

Also, did anyone catch "The View". The last 3 bakers designed a cake for Sherry's Birthday. I missed the results..but I heard Courtney won.

I loooooathe that show, so I didn't see it.

Courtney's cakes are my favorite, but that is just my style too. But I cant stand the "DIVA". After what she did on a previous challenge ruining someone else's cake and playing 'innocent' was 100% wrong. But here is what I dont understand. How can Mary keep winning? On the first episode her flowers broke, and on this last one the ball broke. The judges are WAY to easy on her, I think she is the most talented of the three, but if one of James's flowers had broken, they would of beat him down.
I almost cried when he went home, he is an amazing artist, chef, and person. Always kind etc.
My two cents

Hey Xstitcher, she didn't ask to have a thyroid problem. It's not her fault. She's just trying to rid the world of all the evil hippopotamuses-hippo-hippopotami...what the heck is the plural of the doggone word!?!?!?

Can I just ask all you Bronwen fanatics, what the heck the puny super-hero's power was? I mean, it obviously wasn't strength because my four year-old daughter has bigger guns than that guy. So, he defeated the villanous landfill by flying around it? Hmmm, yeah...that was a good idea...

I was very disappointed in the judges on this last challenge.

Bronwen and James came up with an entirely new design (one that was not practiced ahead of time). Mary made the comment that the last time she made Firefly the globe stayed fine. So for Mary and Courtney to make something they had already practiced ahead of time and still win, really upset me. I thought the entire point of the challenge was to ditch the old designs and create something new.

Then Mary and Courtney did nothing to help one another. Mary could see that Courtney was having trouble with her hippo, but did not offer to help. In Bronwen and James kitchen they traded off and helped each other.

Now I will say that I really did like Mary and Courtney's cake, but thought it was unfair for them to win.

They were poor sports (crying; laughing at the other kitchen), no teamwork and they used practiced designs.

I really want Bronwen to win. She has done the best work consistently.

I actually want to send a letter to Food Network over this last challenge because it really upset me. I told DH that I really don't want to watch the last show or any other challenges, but since Bronwen is still in it, I will.

ok it was a "humorous" or attempt at it any way LOL...an analogy between fireworks on a cake being equated to a bb gun, and glow in the dark equated with radiation (now this was being silly) as in ha ha funny haha I am such a riot kinda thing? Hope that clears this up for those that came to class late again. So you don't dig my brand of humor........hope I grow on you ......
