Ace of Cakes

I have enjoyed watching the show "Ace of Cakes" with the creative things they do but.... just a few comments-

-Could they show the decorators wiping their nose or face then touching the cakes less, please? ugh.

-The big girl Mary...? I keep wanting to pull her hair back while she leans over the cake. ugh. Add to that her bitten off nails as they show all that fondant being rolled and I'm just kinda grossed out.

-Mary Alice is adorable. Cute, witty and at times steals the show.

-How good could those cakes actually taste considering that fondant doesn't really taste all that hot, but after seeing how they maul it and slap it around it doesn't even sound appealing. It does provide that smooth finish though. Has anyone ever gone on record to say how these expensive cakes actually taste though?

-How do these things get cut sometimes?
