Comments

❀️‍πŸ”₯This is my next project. P.S. I am very newly vegan, or at least vegetarian, thanks in part to watching your content. It's been a long time coming, so thank you for inspiring this group to consider the animals that share this world with us.

Caroline Fae

Imagine having this much talent, you’d never get bored!

Jess Cash

gorgeous! Now I know what my wedding cake would look like if I had ever crossed that point in my life. ❀️

Rebecca Valentine

outstanding

Cee Fee

Completely Gorgeous !

Tina Higgs

Absolutely stunning!

Cora Kathlea

amazing.

TDF FDT

Can’t wait to make this. This was posted on my bday and a vegan spider cake was the birthday cake I never knew was possible but actualized my birthday perfection! You are awesome!

Lauren

This is so amazing. Christine you make me feel like I can literally do anything! With a little patience and creativity, it feels like anything could be possible. Is there a place where the recipes for cake and icing are and also the materials used?

Melissa

I’m convinced you should have been a heart surgeon.

Tati

Steps 1-10: Oooh I could do this! Steps 11-90: Uhhhh never mind

Christina Rodriguez

are the recipes posted somewhere?

Karmell Mazurek

This is like spooky Wedgwood!!! Beautiful!

Smitten Kitten

We just need an audio track of you saying β€œBig swirl, baby swirl. Big swirl, baby swirl.” over and over and over. πŸ₯°

Kara Andretta

So beautiful 😍 but can you create a magnificent piece of art with whipped cream instead of buttercream?πŸ˜€

Felicity

Everything you do is spectacular. I know you work hard and practice, practice, practice. I hope you are proud of your creations and the effort you put into your craft.

Susan Urbanczyk

Every time I thought it was perfect, you added something else and made it even more perfect. I love it.

Robin Reed

Does Christine make anyone else feel like they can do ANYTHING!? She gives me life and she breaks things down so well I’m like, β€œyeah! I can do that!!!” I love this so much can’t wait for the recipes πŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ

Ashley Lucero

The intricacies and hanging icing kind of reminded me of the Sedlec Ossuary! I cannot wait to to try these vegan recipies!

Lyza

OmG! Yes! Labyrinth is my favorite movie! XD

MecaniqueFairy

I hope someone got to EAT that icing!

Gillian Weaver

After watching so many of your videos I think you were the most gorgeous spider in a past life. The intricacies of this cake are just stunning, as is everything you do!!! πŸ–€πŸ•ΈπŸ•·πŸ–€

Patience Carlson

What happened to the rest of the cake??? I want to be your neighbor who you give your left overs too! 🀣

Kathleen Smith

DEFINITELY some form of GRAND cutting!

Allyson Galpin-Hernandez

Astonishing!

Arianne Rodriguez

I feel like this cake should be cut with a sword

Kerry Feely

That is the most beautiful cake I have ever seen!

Kitty Lang

Amazing cake.

Debra Palermo

Wonder if you have tried dates in replace of sugar?? I made a banana bread only using dates a couple of times, and I couldn't tell the difference. I think it's a great alternative for those who are reducing their sugar intake. Gorgeous cake. Another masterpiece!

Lynn

Just stunning, and so much fun to watch. I luv that you add a little spooky to everything.

Deborah West Shaulter

I have your cookbook. I am vegan so I really appreciate these new baking videos. Thank you! That cake is a fabulous work of delectable art!

vermont witch

hey christine, weird question, but what time were you born? me and my partner are drawing bets to figure out your birth chart and i'm swinging for significant capricorn and virgo placements

Camilo gonzalez

Absolutely stunning!

Christie

Seriously Christine, you are a diabolical GENIUS. You literally bring my imagination to corporeal life!!!!! For REAL, DO YOU WANT AN INTERN??? LOVE LOVE LOVE EVERYTHING YOU DOOOOO!!!

Sara Morales

OH MY GOD!!!!!! Immaculate as always!!!!!! It was sooooooo satisfying to watch you cut into it at the end, too! Wow!

little taosenx

Joanne Zaborowski

robin bohn

I'm in awe!!

foof

Pretty much the only wish I want granted for the rest of my life is a birthday cake from Christine 😍

Erica Oliva

So relaxing to watch.

Jennifer Fowler

There’s nothing Christine can’t do.

DMCM

You are so talented ! I love your channel. By the way, I know you are a fan of Baumgardner Restoration. This is so funny. You need to watch this: https://youtu.be/nbOxD0kcgT8

Karri Thompson

I wonder how many days did it take you and captive to eat it up XD

Gorgon's Eye

Looking for some other married childfree women to watch spooky movies with. Anyone else live in upstate New York?

Carrie

Signing up to your Patreon is a dream come true Christine! I’m on week 23 of my pregnancy with my rainbow baby (normally we miscarry) and I’m 100% convinced that your show has helped make this possible! Thank you for helping to keep me calm & happy!! I am in love with your creativity! πŸ–€

Nicky Bee

Just when you think Christine couldn't possibly get any better ...she is now plant based!!! can't wait for the recipes!! The cake is spectacular Christine!

Sheri Stoddard

I love the spiders!!! They're so cool, and look life-like!

Emily Peck

This cake turned out lovely!

Monique Nicole

This was so great! Thanks, Christine for doing this two-part project.

Bethany A. McConnell

Amazing and flawless as always!

Chad

absolutely wonderful, although after all that work, Im afraid I wouldnt want to destroy it by eating it!

Robin D.

If the person who sent you those pushpins has a shop can you pls link it?! They are so cute πŸ’•πŸ’€

Katy Tolbard

My daughter's 16th birthday is coming up, and we're trying to decide on a theme, so I showed her this cake. She said, since we're also going to a Haunted Museum, she wants her theme to be "Christine McConnell's House" πŸ–€ proud mom moment!!

Yvonne

I've said it a million times, but I have to say it again, you're amazing Christine! Thank you again for sharing your gifts with us!

Melissa Pinilla

How has decorating the new house been going? I'm just dying to know! I know you mentioned your gross 80s oven on the baking portion of this project, and I ache inside for your bright sunny yellow kitchen, if only because it was done and this one is clearly not.

Nora Dallaire

Everything you do is so amazing!

mrb

Amazing cake!

Linda

My son and I watched this and loved it!! My six year old says "I love your cake and I love your shows" - me too!

Roimata Ness

You πŸ‘ are πŸ‘ goals πŸ‘

Jessica Haag

Stunning!!!

Jill Poudrette

Also, I have a suggestion for a movie night...how about Labyrinth? You could probably come up with a cool related project for it, too!

Jane Good

This is amazing! I absolutely love your string work it's stunning!

Jane Good

WOW! That was incredible!

Renee Towsend

I loved this!

Judy K. Zamlen-Spotts

Stunningly gorgeous and absolutely incredible design work. Thank you so much for sharing this seemingly daunting cake project. What a work of art and love!

Noel Wharton

I have to just say that you inspire me so much. With all the chaos of the last year you have always been something I can count on to cheer me up! Thank you so much for sharing so much with us. Hope all is well, from Arizona ❀️

Michele Helsel

Wow....just wow! I only live an hour away. Next time you bake a creation, I am more than willing to help you eat it! πŸ˜‹

Kimberly H.

Just wonderful!

Kittypants

This was the best 28 min of the last 18 months for me. I enjoyed watching this almost as much as I would eating it. Thank you ❀️

Tanya Madrick

You are my cake hero!

Cj Franklin

That is the most beautiful cake I've ever seen.

Toni Zoblotsky

Holy crap! I'm still astonished by the sheer patience, tenacity and boundless creativity you have. Like, I didn't realize the cake was gonna be so dimensional lol and I never would have thought to decorate it that way 😍. How does your body not just hurt after standing and decorating for soooo long?

Emmie

Mind blowing as always! Can’t wait to try some of these techniques!

Nicholas Favia

Miss Havisham's wedding cake!

Abbie Frank

O M G !! 🀩 well done Christine πŸ–€

Jessica

Wow! Just wow!

A Hughes

That looks so unbelievably beautiful. A true work of art. It looks like something you pulled out of a dream world.

Latie George

This was so relaxing to watch!!

Kaela PerLee

Oh my gosh, that cake was GORGEOUS!! All that detail work was making my head spin, but the end result was just too beautiful!

Tammy R Dowden

Sooooo beautiful!!!

Sophia Santini

Thanks for sharing Christine! The cake is perfect. I am going to make this cake next week (so excited). See you next episode/movie night.

Mardi Shakti

Omgosh Christine you are so talented, your cake is amazing, I was totally captivated watching it unfold.

Kim Ravenscroft

I am so appreciative not only of your gorgeous work but also showing folks that vegan baking is possible AND delicious <3 Thanks for thinking of the animals!

Kimberly Adamski

An absolute astonishing piece of brilliance! Hoping another amazing book will be in the works for the future.

Heather Cherry-Roberts

Oh my gosh it's about time! You keep us waiting sooooo looooong! πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ€“πŸ€“

Sarah Cortez

My goodness at one slice!! πŸ˜„ I love it!

Sherrie Potgieter

I'm watching now and this is absolutely amazing, but I dont expect anything less from you, Christine. I just wanna eat it and the icing especially, with a big spoon...and the leak on the bag, in my mouth lol it probably doesn't help that I'm very hungry! Thank you for everything you do 😊 you're so, very gifted xoxoxo ~Sherrie

Sherrie Potgieter

Picture it: A Great British Baking Show type program but with a gothic/creepy twist and Christine as host. Someone make this happen!

Bat-A-Boo

This is why she’s skinny and I’m not 🀣

Cariushka

Gorgeous! How many neighbors had to help you eat it? 🀣

Cariushka

So beautiful, I wouldn't want to eat it.

Kim Geoffroy

This is incredible ! I can't wait to try te recipe ! πŸ˜πŸ–€

Satine β™‘

I'm excited about the aquafaba royal icing. I'll be using it on my gingerbread this Christmas!

Liz Mednick

Mesmerizing! The joy I get from watching Christine create...just wow!

Mji X

What a beautiful cake and episode πŸ•· Thank you πŸ–€

Victoria Gates

I liked the pearls. I'd add bats, but never in a million years, would I add spiders. Webs are cool, but I hate spiders.

Gillian Weaver

It was so wonderful to see you baking! So relaxing and the most beautiful cake! Thank you!

Haley Brooks

Thank you Christine. I love your videos. So relaxing for me watching you adorn this most beautiful cake! I know it would have been very hard work for you! You have such an amazing talent, whatever you take on to do for us all, as a project is just the best thing EVER to watch.

Deidre Down

Lol! My roommate almost cried when it was time to cut the cake! She said it was too beautiful to be eaten! ^_^

MecaniqueFairy

Loved the music on this episode too! Was that a theremin I heard?

Karl Beck

LOVED these episodes! Inspiring! WOW!

Karl Beck

I’d rather cut one of my limbs off than cut into that gorgeous cake. Or maybe just save it it forever Miss Havisham style

Kristen Duke

These videos bring me so much joy. Pure gleeeeeeee!!!

chelle belle

Loved it! β€πŸ’–β€ Came out the same day I got my acceptance letter too, it's been a fantastic day todayπŸŽ‰

Katherine

So happy to see you baking again! Loved this!

Sonja Tompkins

Thank you for this great episode! Watching you work is such a zen moment for me. I feel like I should say namaste. The cake looks so beautiful and yummy!

Annalise

This might be the most beautiful cake I've ever seen-thank you for putting so much effort into it with your research, time and patience! It looks delicious and I'm sure it was hard cutting into such a masterpiece! Brava!

DeeDee Wood

That's what I was thinking!

Aunt Debbie Halloween

I hope you didn’t hurt yourself on this beautiful cake. I feel like I remember you mentioning repetitive motions can be painful for your hand/wrist ❀️

JMCaptein

I’m getting married on Halloween and I want to make my own cake so this is perfect, thank you

Maddy

How are you not popping those buttercream strips in your mouth after each chisel swipe! They would have went straight in my mouth!

Shannon Hogue

thank you for the amazing content Christine! much love from Georgia! <3

Jack Beheler

I cackled when she said that after all that work 🀣

GingerGeege

Such a beautiful cake, and the instructions were really clear - now I want to make a fancy cake! And vegan too. But I have to wait until one of the patrons makes a gluten free version.

Aunt Debbie Halloween

I think I would remake the entire dye recipe and add the black, and then dye it over the bright yellow lace. Trying to do just black over the top might end up with uneven color.

Aunt Debbie Halloween

Ma'am can we get your hummous recipe, too? 😁

GingerGeege

What a treat to have this video! Thank you sweet Christine for making us these special videos just for us to enjoy first. Love from Kentucky

Amanda Smith

Watching this is like meditation! So beautiful and delicate. Watching you do the strings and eat the cake were my favorite parts.

Carla Morgan

I'd be really disappointed if you didn't add something creepy. I really love the elegant spiders. πŸ•·οΈ

Patrick Nottingham

I have missed the baking videos!! Thank you Christine! Lovely as always!

Paul Fliedner

I’m wondering how many days this took to make, such an amazing cake πŸŒ±πŸ’š

Lauren Elizabeth Burns

What a beautiful, spindly, spider cake! I love the idea of vanilla schmallow cake. I'm not vegan, but deliciousness is deliciousness, and I always end up chucking the chickpea water anyhow! Now I can turn it into something awesome. Thanks as always <3

Emilie

Wow! Absolutely stunning! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Jamie Casper

Amazingly beautiful but I hated seeing you cut it!!! It needs to just stay it's beautiful self for ever on a shelf! 🀣 Thanks for a great episode

Gothippy

So beautiful!!The spiders were my favorite.It was hard watching you cut it

Christina Zavala

Love the icing! I think I can finally tackle a vegan gingerbread house now ! Thanks

Keely

Incredible πŸ–€

Lisa Thibeault

Thank you so much!

Clara Vratsanos

In the Netflix special, she did say she'd freeze it if that helps!

Fae

This is gorgeous and I hope to attempt it soon! Do you freeze the cake or just refrigerate it? xx

Clara Vratsanos

I think you could add black if you use the same type of dye as the original colors. But I would snip a little piece to test, because it would be easy to go way too dark on accident.

Sonja Kraner

As usual, simply amazing. Thank you for bringing us along for the whole process!

Nichole C

Well done!!! We love that you made a stunning vegan cake! We were trying to guess what a cake like that could be priced at for a wedding and we thought minimum $750 probably more like $900 or more, its truly a work of art. You are my favorite modern day artist 🎨 :) It looks too good to eat but honestly I'd eat that in a heart beat.

Kim K

Christine your creativity is so inspiring and I love your videos so much, I wish I was as talented as you (doesn't stop me from trying), thank you for being an amazing role model πŸ˜ŠπŸ’›

Ali May

Also, for clarities sake, I used yellow, taupe, and a bit of gray which didn't really touch that yellow.

Nicholas Frig

Wow! What an incredible cake. I'm a baker/decorator, but I've never used the Lambeth method. I always wondered how to do those mounds! I'm definitely going to try this. It's an especially good method for a creepy or Halloween cake!

Sarah Wilson

I know this is a weird place to put this question, but I had a dye problem. I was dying the lace for the drapes project and I forgot to add the black to tone down that yellow and now...wow. Is that yellow. I didn't know if I am stuck with this and i need to get new lace to dye or if I could add a small amount of black and dye over this to tone it down. If anyone can help i would greatly appreciate it.

Nicholas Frig

This was...there are inadequate words. This cake is absolute perfection! My birthday is coming up on June 5th and you posted this at the perfect time! I'm totally going to make a vegan creepy/elegant victorian cake to celebrate!! <3

Megan Benjamin-Evans (GeekGirlWho)

Once again, thank you for the quality content. I love that you share your mind with us!

Paige Phoa

Love that this is vegan and its so so beautiful!

Emily

beyond beautiful cake... i cried when u cut it.... i will try the recipe but i think the decoration will be minimal... i dont have your patient :)

inge hakim

It's cold here in Indiana today and it put me in the mood to bake an apple crisp. I'm not talented enough to make this :) Loved the spider accents!

Tricia Slone

If I didn't see you doing it all step by step, I wouldn't believe it's possible to create such a beauty at home. I wonder if the space between the spider cameos is sort of butterfly-shaped on purpose.πŸ€” Beautiful, beautiful work.

Anastasia

I would interpret the rope as spider silk given the theme ;) I doubt it would hold, but imagine if you could put tiny pieces of candy glass as "dew" on the "silk"?

Angela Coppola

Wow, what a stunning cake!! Whenever I watch your videos I feel confident about my artistic abilities and your instructions are always so clear cut. However, my execution is never quite up to par... Alas, I shall do my best to make myself a stunning birthday cake in a few weeks.

Taylor Makenzie

Going to try these vegan recipes! Definitely on a smaller version annnnd probably no fancy icing tricks, no way only two of us could polish off a cake this size πŸ˜†πŸŽ‚

Angela Pogue

So charming! "Watch it be terrible" had me lol-ing!

Lucy Wolski

I have a feeling I'm going to be forever doomed to refer to Aquafaba as Aqua Tofana..

Tadgh Kirby

When you added the spiders 😍 you're my hero and I love everything you do! so inspiring. Enjoy your weekend!

Trina Montano

Once again, a beautiful masterpiece! All that hard work paid off. And it looks absolutely delicious! It's always sad to have to cut into that beautiful work, but it's there to enjoy eating it too. I'm sure your captive is enjoying all the leftovers? Hahha! Seeing all those icing decorating tips reminded me of my Mom's Wilton decorating kit she had and used when I was growing up. She always made all our birthday and holiday cakes and decorated to her heart's content. She made roses on a large decorating nail and put them in the freezer and then on the cake. Watching this brought me back to those days. And her name was Rose. If my Mom could see this now, she'd be amazed.

Claire McQuarrie

I just got your book and I will definitely add this recipe to it. You are incredible, amazing and I am over the moon with this cake!! I know I will watch this video over and over! Thank you!! Thank you!!

Pamela Kay

OMG, it took muscle to cut into that cake! lol. I want to try this one!!

Haley

So gorgeous!!! You never cease to amaze!!πŸ–€

Karysa HorrorHoneysKitchen

STUNNING!

Devonie Kemp-Baker

Stunning, a work of art! You are are so incredibly talented. Thank you for sharing this whole amazing process with us!

MMuerte

It's incredible, I am amazed! You are my greatest source of inspiration. I am launching my Patreon on June 1st, I hope to offer content that is only a third of what you create. Thank you for your magic and hello from France!

MaΓ―na

Stunning work as usual!πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€πŸ–€

deanna shorts

Unbelievably beautiful cake, I can't believe it...

Ashley King

wow your drop lines are stunning. Those are seriously hard to do. Great job on nailing it and the whole cake is absolutely gorgeous! As someone trying to switch to a more plant based diet I can't wait to give these recipes a try soon. πŸ˜‹

limbairedhiel

This cake reminds me of a church I love around the corner from me! https://www.firstfranklin.org/worship-music/weddings/

Jo Briggs

Looks like the perfect winter project for opening the windows, turning the room into a walk-in fridge, and decorating away!

Gincredible

You never seize to amaze me at how talented you are!! Just wow 🀩

J.angelea.r

Omg!!! Damn! If this cake was on an episode of Nailed It and I had to duplicate this, it would look like a baby blue blob! πŸ˜‚ This should be in a museum!

Rez NYC

Amazing!! Almost a Tiffany blue, I think. What a fabulous job you did.

Evelyn McElroy

Aaamazing! How could you cut into such a beautiful work of art and deliciousness? I admire your patience!

Carol Blum

Astonishing. Even as a patron I feel bad that this is unlisted as I feel like the whole world needs to see how amazing this cake is πŸ˜‚ and as a vegan I want you to do the catering at my hopefully distant funeral.

Matthew Robert Davies

That was absolutely stunning. *wow that puts my whole name in there I hope I can fix that *

Shannon R.

Did anyone else gasp when she cut into it? Lol

Madeline Hayman

This episode is my favorite ever

Rachel Forrest

Incredibly beautiful. At first it looked similar to Cinderella’s carriage on top. Christine’s workmanship is always impeccable. Brilliant once more! ❀️

Kimberly Widener

Oh my goodness, it’s absolutely stunning! 🀩 It’s my birthday on Sunday so I’m just going to pretend you made this for me. πŸ˜‚πŸ’“

Lily

❀️ that cake would go with me to the grave! I couldn’t bear to cut it!πŸ˜‚

Bernadette Vaughan

Erin E

Shelby Snow

Janeen

Have I said it already? YOU ARE A GODDESS <3 this cake is better looking tan an wedding cake I have ever seen in my entire life. I love it <3 All I can say is that I gotta try it but I am waaay too lazy so maybe putting butter cream and royal icing into silicone forms would make it a little easier on me and the lies of me :D thanks a tone Christine

Vilma ValančiΕ«naitΔ—

Perfection as always

Brandi Sikora

Wow so stunning!!! If your hand aches after all that piping you should try the Saran Wrap method for your royal icing- it’s a game changer. Fantastic cake!!

Cassandra Cyr

Yayyy!

Lydia Cordova

Amazing! Guess what I'm doing this weekend lol

Summer Rose Barnes

What a masterpiece gorgeous workπŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•

Melissa
