As one of the stars of the Food Network's hit reality show Ace of Cakes, Geof Manthorne is known for his incredible cake creations and dry, sardonic sense of humor. As Executive Sous Chef and project lead, Geof oversees replicas. With a meticulous eye for detail, he has constructed cake models of Notre Dame Cathedral, the Taj Mahal, and a Les Paul guitar. Geof will demonstrate some basic cake decorations and show video clips from the show.
Ace of Cakes goes behind the scenes at Charm City Cakes in Baltimore, Maryland, where Geof works with owner Duff Goldman and a team of artists who work together to create as many as 15-20 cakes a week at times, some of which take up to 29 hours to build.
