Episode 2 recap of Charly's Cake Angels on SABC3: 'It becomes incredibly stressful to get everything out. We're just running.'


The second episode of the hilariously fascinating Charly's Cake Angels (Saturdays, SABC3, 16:00) delivered big time. And I mean that literally.

The cake creators of Charly's Bakery got their biggest single cake order ever, which they also had to go and deliver physically, while the vehicle got ... damaged, in an accident.

The staff worked on the biggest single cake order of their lives which involved them running out of time, having to deal with incorrectly cut cake dial sticks, the wrong green icing colour, and incorrectly cut hardboard base, and a car accident whilst transporting the humongous 5 tier cake and 16 others to the venue.

Daughter Alex was in charge of the cake order for Old Mutual's big green clean cake machine, as some members of the staff started stressing out behind the scenes. But everything worked out in the end after lots of drama.

The two funniest moments? When daughters Alex and Roch added (despite strict instructions from mom Jacqui) some secret, elixir-of-life magical pixie dust icing colour lightening agent to the too dark green icing sugar which changed to the perfect colour. Mom Jacqui came back and went: ''What are you laughing at? Are you telling me it's exactly the same?''

Then there's the dear Joyce who was supposed to watch the biggest cake in the back of the one van as all 17 were carefully transported to the venue. Meanwhile, as you can see ... fast asleep. Joyce, Joyce, Joyce.


Everything turned out fine in the end (despite the car accident).
