Cake Wars

As a cake maker I'd like to defend those who have participated in the war. The time given to complete the challenge is not enough and for the judges to expect a squeaky clean pristine piece is ridiculous to say the least! I'd love to see Food Network put the judges at "war" under the same restrictions given and have the real cake makers critique their work! I bet they'd FAIL to produce the product they expect from participants not to mention people would see their lack of performance and skill. We see Buddy and Duff showcase their talents all the time. When will we see the talents that the judges have? To me its not enough to say they are skilled. SHOW US!! Anyone can own a bakery and hire to get the work done. I've watched this show since the beginning and would love to see the tasks allowed more time to show the artists they really are.

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 have become extremely rude and it makes watching the show less appealing. I don't feel there's any reason to be so rude criticizing and nasty to anyone. Neither of the judges would like to be spoken to in the manner they speak to the contestants. They both should be ashamed of themselves. Further more I really hope both of the judges get to experience the criticism they dish out perhaps they will recognize how yucky it feels to have anyone speak to you so poorly. Shame on the judges for their poor judging skills and targeting of some contestants. The judges rude condescending attitude and words ruin the show!!!

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.

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.
