Sandra Lee - No Bake Daffodil Cake

Season 9, Episode 3
Daffodil Parade
Semi-Homemade Cooking

[@E.B.J.S.]

"I'm sure they thought I was crazy." We all do, Aunt Sandy, crazy smart, that is.

[@dianehutchinson9257]

The terrible idea, the insane execution, the unreal amount of sugar that must be present, this is truly unhinged!

[@andrewm2971]

My brain broke when the first ingredients for this cake were going out and buying two premade, pre-iced cakes.

[@tibb75]

It's almost as bad as "warm olives" being an hors-d'œuvre

[@JohnnyK60]

Oh, Andrew! This is her Motus Operandum as they say in murder mysteries. She thinks she's fooling everyone, but she's not.

[@cheesecake134]

And premade from a bakery too! That giant sheet cake was $80-100 easily. Even in the grocery store one that size is 30-40 bucks. PLUS bakery cupcakes and specialty cookies?! This would be like a $200 cake to recreate……and it looks like that. 😂😢

[@Blue-pt9zd]

I feel like we're getting so much Sandra Lee backstory out of these bunch of clips and I love it.

[@yolandaponkers1581]

Aunt Sandy was me at twelve when I said I cleaned my room but really just shoved everything under my bed or in my closet and acted like I did something 😂

[@_Gilles_]

How much yellow do you want? Sandy: Two shots of vodka!

[@SugarDemon1035]

How many shots of vodka do you want? Sandy: Yellow!

[@PriscilaTV1]

Sandy: I put this cake in a matter of minutes! Everyone: No shit!

[@TaylorMMontgomery]

🤣🤣😭😭

[@ciegosordomudo]

Imagine owning a world renowned restaurant and one day THE Sandra Lee storms into your kitchen to assemble one of her semi-ho, no-bake creations because who cares about your dessert menu.

[@Darmok_onthe_ocean]

Is the BEST story.

[@Samuel-yi2iy]

honestly, i'd be honored

[@jaredjlinden]

I would have had her arrested. Not just for trespassing, but for coming up with that awful “no-bake” cake.

[@Darmok_onthe_ocean]

@@jaredjlinden and miss the Sandra show? Sad.

[@jeremypepe9612]

She left out the part where the cops dragged her out. “And now I’m not allowed within 500 ft of Mario Batali!”

[@jeffroberts2445]

She went in the restaurant kitchen uninvited to build a cake?

[@sketchingdetails]

Ah, the daffodil cake. I had thoroughly bleached that from the memory banks.

[@getoffmydarnlawn]

Somewhere in some cake making place under the champagne extract aisle these cakes were, once upon a time, yes baked.

[@jonathanunger9]

Go girl give us nothing

[@deanomarshall2926]

Ha!!ha!! she succeeded. 😂

[@deanomarshall2926]

So, what do you do first...grab a cookie or a cupcake & then a slice of yellow or white cake next? I'm very confused. 🥳 🤔

[@camillegallegos9078]

As if the No Bake " Love Cake " 💍 she did wasn't enough for that wedding episode. I cannot get onboard with this one Sandy!

[@LiamWalds]

I don't think even Sandy's closest allies would let her take an ounce of credit for stacking some storebought cakes and cookies on top of each other

[@mikehat7652]

Piss yellow, just in time for spring!

[@sherryjohnson4307]

FINtastic

[@deanomarshall2926]

0:41 That looks like Cool Whip with yellow food coloring. 🤭

[@JohnnyK60]

So, the supermarkets in Sumner make yellow cake for this local 'holiday'? I think the word for the restaurant staff reaction was likely: gobsmacked.

[@LoneWombat2126]

Is anyone else wondering why she didn’t unwrap the cupcakes before nestling them into the frosting on the sheet cake?? 🤦‍♀️😂🤣

[@dlinkster]

I have never understood that. You’d get icing all on the cupcake wrappers. It’d honestly annoy me to have to do that.

[@Steven4now]

It saves time

[@LoneWombat2126]

@@Steven4now yes, but how much frosting is wasted by covering the wrapper?

[@JohnnyK60]

I assumed because after unwrapping them they might not be perfectly pretty looking in shape?

[@yolandaponkers1581]

How to make this cake: literally go buy a grocery store cake, another grocery store cake, and grocery store cupcakes, stack them for absolutely no reason, and call it your “no bake daffodil cake.”

[@deanomarshall2926]

The only thing missing in this episode is the "French's yellow mustard." 😂

[@SmashItWithaHamma]

I'm pretty sure she did the same thing for a bridal themed episode (presumably as someone's low-budget wedding cake) complete with bakery bought wedding ring-shaped cookies 😭

[@mikehat7652]

She did! I was having flashbacks to it

[@Salty.CARAmel.842]

I thought she was unhinged back then, and now seeing all these clips of her she’s even more unhinged than I remember 😂

[@mayonnaiseeee]

I truly hate this cake, I'm so sorry Sandy 😢

[@leekshikapinnamneni4835]

Next comes a tub of icing, some yellow food, coloring, and some vanilla extract to make it taste homemade.

[@SugarDemon1035]

If you're buying the cakes, cupcakes, and cookies from the grocery store bakery anyway, why not just... buy a normal, decorated birthday cake? It would probably be cheaper, too.

[@alexboach9305]

I mean the cake is kind of cute but I literally do not think I have ever seen cookies shaped and decorated like daffodils, much less any other flower or even any other design/motif/etc, in my entire life. Like never. Maybe they exist but how many people will really be able to actually recreate this easy recipe lolll

[@IsaacIsaacIsaacson]

I mean they exist but mostly at fancy bakeries and they're not cheap

[@Pastadudde]

@@IsaacIsaacIsaacson yeah it would be easier to just pipe simple flower design lol. just use the cut corner of a ziploc if you aren't bothered with making it look super professional.

[@emilyrakov2340]

another bad sandra lee cake has hit the towers, sir

[@ritamariealan93]

Damn I thought that no bake love cake was unhinged.

[@RocketNinjaSlap]

"No bake" just because somebody else baked it doesn't mean it isn't baked

[@alex.gomez.1117]

Looks like a child made that cake. I don’t want to take credit for that cake.

[@Samuel-yi2iy]

the ingredients for the cake is premade cakes, unbelievable

[@Samuel-yi2iy]

AND PREMADE CUPCAKES!!!!

[@janedoe-ld5gt]

Girl what do you mean you get to take all the credit?? Be for real, aunt Sandy 🤣

[@jorb1903]

“This is my no bake daffodil cake , but before I start making this, let’s talk about our no bake daffodil cake

[@PorcelainXDesire]

I clicked on the link because I was curious about how she was going to accomplish making a no bake daffodil cake. Can't say I am surprised by how she attempted it.

[@rbisme113]

Add a pointy sugar cone onto the white cake and it's a festive flower tank cake!

[@simplysavyyy]

😂😂😂😂 she’s me after a few lush lagoon’s after hating my DoorDash order

[@tbstorm98]

Daffodil cookies? This cake needs some more bees.

[@BroadwayBabyyy744]

And then she changed the Cakes name mid "recipe" ohhh sandy, i know shes in remission and doing great now, for those who dont know or remember she had breast cancer several years ago.

[@flyingumbreons]

It would have been better to serve all the components separately and let the guest choose which one they wanted.

[@tamerlano]

This is what psychosis looks like.

[@Andrea-n4q4k]

I love watching these videos from back in the day, but one thing I notice is that she is not very humble in many instances. Her praise to herself and her “brilliant ideas” is a bit off putting at times. I still enjoy watching these though, just something I’ve noticed now that I’m older and rewatching. 🤷🏽‍♀️
