La Brigade des délices

Its really fresh to see a more casual friendly competition. Although the artificial time contraint is still present. We sometimes get to see a glimps of them just helping each other out, like cooking tips or just helping to carry something heavy. Personally this really gives the show some fresh air compared to other cooking shows that are heavily competative.

The show does sometimes fall for the usual reality tv tropes. Like sappy backstories. For example, something has a personal connection to someones childhood and that makes this cake "really special to me, and i'm gonna do everything I can to make this perfect for X person". And more stuff like that, wicch I can personally do without.

All in all, its much less serious than other cooking shows and that does give it it's charm. So I would recomend this to someone that is looking for a more lighthearted cooking show. But in the end its still sappy overedited reality tv.

6/10: good but not great.

All of the members of the Bake Squad plus Christina have great chemistry. So far I've just watched 4 episodes and love it! It's seems the conceptual desserts win. That's probably why Ashley gave up baking cakes and decided to make lollipops instead. If you want to see a show that has bakers with incredible imagination and skill--then I highly recommend this show. I was impressed by Gonzo's dragon egg and Christophe's drum set.

If you read too much into it, you probably will not enjoy it. That it mind, I rather enjoyed watching this show. I loved the chemistry between the bakers, they genuinely look like they get along. And I adored their creations.

A nice friendly bake show that takes all the angst out of the competition and instead focuses on making fun bakes. The atmosphere on the show is light, which is nice. The bakers were fun and had great chemistry with each other, oh, and made some great desserts.

Fun show but clearly some competitors are not great. Maya Camille is so bad that we actually kept watching to see how cringe her creations would be. The first creation she did was worst than a nailed it show. Fun nonetheless.
