    Regular judges ruin the show for me!

    The two regular judges are way too judgemental for the time constraints. I believe high standards and perfection are certainly the goal. However the two regular judges are way beyond too critical. The walk around in the 2nd round is unnecessary.

    Horrible Judges - Negative, Rude and condescending

    These cakes have to be made in a ridiculously short amount of time with weird ingredients; and these bakers bring us some amazing cakes.

    These judges are just snarky, they make stupid faces (Waylynn Lucas), offer no helpful criticism, and are very difficult to watch. During their mid-episode walk around their goal seems to be to discourage and demotivate the bakers.

    Get rid of these snobs!

    I can't stand the women judge Waylynn. I have seen some great cakes and she's always got to say something smart to say (not in a good way) the show would be so much better without her. Just get rid of her!!!!

    The Judges Are Insufferable

    The title says it all. I can't stand it when they tear apart beautifully made cakes because "there's too much detail" or "they don't understand the story" then award simple and boring cakes the title of winner. Can you imagine if people actually used that to critique other types of art? "Sorry, Pieter Brugal, your painting is beautiful and all, but Icarus is kind of hard for me to spot and it feels like there's a lot of focus on the other characters in the painting and I personally just don't get it."

    Also, I'm just saying, if a judge came up to me and they were like, "Oh, that cake might not work because there's a chance it could collapse. I wonder what you're gonna do because you've already spent half this time making it and now you've only got two hours so you probably don't have time to make another one. Anyways good luck." I do believe I would show them my cake from a different perspective via slamming their head into it.

    I like the cakes/ I hate the judges

    The idea for the show is awesome, I love the baking and cake competition shows. However, these judges are jerks. They only have negetive things to say, I'm always shocked when they have a positive comment. The walk around making people feel bad about their work in the middle of everything, and then tear them down at the end. It's awful, not supportive, soul crushing judging.

    • Trivia
      If you look closely, the winning cake looks different in the competition than at the party it was for. This is because they had to make a new cake for the party since the cake expires before the party would start.
