Super Mega Cakes judge Amaury Guichon opens up about his biggest baking/ chocolate disaster

Super Mega Cakes fans are eagerly waiting for the show's finale. The show features Amaury Guichon as one of the judges, who recently reflected on one of the "disasters" he had been through. He was referring to the baking/ chocolate disaster.

The question that Amaury faced was:

"What was the biggest baking/ chocolate disaster you've experienced?

Responding to that, he said, it was in one of his classes in Romania. It was a chocolate masterclass. During the 3D process, they were building a chocolate phoenix. It had 1,500 chocolate feathers. Each of those chocolate feathers was individually crafted and glued together one by one.

Later, when he was spraying on that, while he was surrounded by many students, it collapsed.

"I taught once in Romania a chocolate masterclass. It was a 3D process. And as I was building a chocolate phoenix, including 1,500 chocolate feathers crafted one by one and glued on one by one, I was spraying in front of a full room of students, and everything collapsed," said Amaury Guichon.

Further, after witnessing such a disaster in front of the students, he had to keep a "gray face" and continued with the class. He then helped the students to complete the task.

For the fans waiting for the Super Mega Cakes Season 1 finale, it will feature cake artists including April Julian, Andrew Fuller, and Dill Barlow. Judges panel will feature Sherry Yard, Amaury Guichon, and Jack Osbourne.
