This cake, along with Christina and Kendra dancing at the back, are giving me life.

[@GregCurtin45]

Great recipe. I love the idea of a lime caramel -- never heard of that before.

[@lucashall6349]

I’m obsessed with Rachel, there I said it!

[@defeatSpace]

You won't be after getting to know her chippy attitude.

[@defeatSpace]

@@lucashall6349 I guess chippy attitudes are your thing? Personally, she goes past driving me up the wall and onto contorting across the ceiling.

I made this this past weekend and it was so delicious! Thanks Rachel for this wonderful recipe 🥰🫶

Looks sooo good :O And I love how chill she was when dealing with the fire XD

Sounds really good.i want to try this

[@danijelaolds2216]

That looks so delicious might have to attempt this one x

[@heikaltaki]

I can just listen to her voice all day! 😊

[@talkshow69]

I thought Indians were made fun of for their accent.

[@larryg9137]

An awesome recipe! Years ago, while cooking in a street mission, I cooked an upside down cake made with Italian Black Plumbs that were delicious cooked...and they turned a ruby red color after spending time in the oven. Sweet, tangy and beautiful - who could ask for anything more? The homeless men loved every time I cooked that desert for dinner. The perfect end to Turkey Paprikash over rice main dish.

[@TundeEszlari]

The video was amazing.🤤👍🏻

[@ari7610]

Love her voice

[@allenmercant8]

Interesting. An upside down plum cake was one of Chef John's great failures - he posts his rare failures as lessons for us all and they're so fun to watch.

[@Narra0002]

It looks good

[@davidorourkesr]

Yummy content Good job!.

That looks amazing 🤩

Yummy

[@joyherting3705]

Can you come up with a recipe for chewy lime caramel, someone put that flavor combination in my head and sounds delicious

[@fairdose]

I feel like plums are a fruit that's completely overlooked for desserts.

[@marinaaa871]

Her voice is so sweet

[@Roscoe_357]

I'm Gonna Make That..

Masha Allah very nice recipe 😋👍🏻please stay connected thanks 🙏

Is that Christina? one of the dancing lady?

[@janethope]

Fruit > chocolate Yessssss right there with you!

[@jansenart0]

Whenever I see plums, I think "prunes". This includes "dried plums".

[@IamMarckyMark]

Bring back chef Harold 😬😤

[@zDiegoChz]

All new chefs are great, but BA does need to get a new Pastry Chef. They may think Claire´s shoes are impossible to fill... cause it´s true

All kinds of new videos but no new Andre Mac 😢 we need our wine guru back

It's the accent for me

I find it funny because Indians are mocked for their accent.

[@MrTJeffords]

@@talkshow69 I find almost ANY accent attractive. Except for maybe like Cardi Bs haha

Lol was a like a plum slurry 😂😂😂. You should have cooked the plum down or roasted seperate my before to dehydrate them

f chocolate desserts , except for chocolate desserts w a sht ton of fruit .

[@BravoBen2007]

I'm not sure it's that good

[@defeatSpace]

Not sorry, the non-fruit side (top?) of the cake is doughy yet anymore oven-time and it would burn, while generally looking like gooey poo after eating pink dye. Bon Wokétit :L

[@sushikarasumori2101]

For real, I don't know why all the comments are worshiping her, most likely a bunch of racists who think she's exotic... New BA staff are basically paid to be morons on camera...

[@qnzJayy]

Imma just be the first one to say it, first 5 seconds of the video is cringy af. Please stop…. Nice dessert though!

[@defeatSpace]

Where is Mrs. Saffitz when you need them to school some broad?

[@OtBe]

Hey BA, you're seemingly slipping in your 'wokeness' makeover cause the flour is still White.

and I cant stand fake accent

Open toed shoes in the kitchen? tsk tsk
