Ha ha, they wouldn't ask me then. I pissed them off royally when they posted an announcement trying to get brides to cancel on the bakers they already contracted with, so they could get their DREAM cake made. That was so fun.

If ever I wish I still had a screenshot, it was now. I might on a different computer, and if I do, I'll post it. Whoever is in charge of posting announcements and what not on the Next Great Baker facebook page put up a HORRID announcement. I remember it said something like "Brides! Do you hate the cake you've ordered for your wedding?" It was an invite for brides to compete for their dream cake from one of the bakers on the show, something like that. (Again, I am going to track down the screenshot, cause it was priceless) So I went on and asked if they were honestly inviting brides to ditch the contracts they had with their bakers, leaving someone high and dry in the middle of wedding season. Really, wish I remember it word for word. It was awesome though. They squirmed for a bit (again, the screenshot, the screenshot, gotta find it) eventually worded it differently, and then took the whole thing down I think. It was so horridly offensive "DO YOU HATE THE CAKE YOU'VE ORDERED?" Ugh.

It's obvious they haven't "edited" any of the audition submissions. I doubt they'll upload any private submission unless/until you are chosen as a contestant, and then they'll use only snippets of the audition on their site. I believe the only reason they request the You Tube passcode is so they can take it down when it's over.

I was told it was so they could download to edit them...that's just what I was told.

So, all of those that are on youtube now were edited by the owner? I was told NOT to do any type of editing by two different producers.

I received an invitation also. I love watching these kind of shows but find
That it would be too stressful. Good luck to all of you auditioning!

Unprofessional, raw footage. (some added text inserts.)

Perhaps they were referring to the 5-minute challengenot to stop the camera (uncut required).

I guess it depends on what is considered "editing". Is there something fancy that you wanted to do, but refrained from? (uncut continual filming not required).

Ha ha! I'm sorry but that is just to funny...I'm literally LOL. I want to watch that now! What's it called?



I think it's Amazing Wedding Cakes. It's the one the Cake Girls were on, and Christopher Garren is still on it. I think it's on Sunday nights on TLC or WEtv.

I posted mine as private so I could see if/ when they viewed it. Has anyone been contacted about being in the final that are going to NYC? The last thing I heard a few weeks back was that it was going to TLC for approval- and nothing since. Just wondering when I can stop biting my nails.....whichever way. Hate to sit here wondering if they have already picked! Good luck to all of my CC peeps! icon_biggrin.gif

Highnoon Productions pitches a few to the network each week. The next step is to wait and see if you're invited to meet with the producer in mid-July.

I briefly read over the fine print but I didn't see anything about getting 50 grand in lieu of working for Buddy. Where is that information located?

I DO NOT want to work for Buddy. He and I would have some issues with the constant yelling and over acting. I would love to try to compete. I don't want to move from Texas either. My husband has a good job here and I like it here.

I don't know if I have the stamina to compete.

I guess I could use a LOT of encouragement to try. Any help out there? icon_smile.gif

It isn't in lieu ofit's the cash prize to the winner. The information is on TLC's website:
http://tlc.discovery.com/tv/tv-shows.html
http://tlc.discovery.com/tv/next-great-baker/about-next-great-baker.html
and if you watched season 1, the winner also received a Chevy Cruze (along with the $50k cash prize, and the temporary "job" to work side-by-side with Buddy).
