$218 vs $17 Cupcakes: Pro Chef & Home Cook Swap Ingredients | Epicurious
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Professional baker Bill Clark and home cook Emily are swapping ingredients and hitting the kitchen to take on each other’s extremely different cupcake recipes. We set Emily up with $218 worth of supplies - everything she’d need to make Bill’s decadent German chocolate cupcakes with coconut pecan caramel filling. Meanwhile, a modest $17 worth of ingredients was sent back the other way for Bill to elevate into something gourmet. As is customary, food scientist Rose dialed in to assist our dear Emily with a few questions she had along the way. Which one of these cupcakes is your cup of tea?

From now on when switching ingredients, Emily should just throw in a random bottle of Ketchup just to mess with them.
I love how approachable Chef Bill is, like not making a big deal put of his talents and expertise.
I love how funny Emily is especially at moments like 10:28 "I am NOT allowing CLUMPS in my buttercream for Chef Bill!" *whacks sieve against the bowl*

Pro tip guys! Double bag your frostings, use 1 bag and the tip for a sleeve, put your frosting in a second bag, then you can take the other bag out and reload easier/cleaner/faster. This works for other things as well, not just frostings. As someone who during Easter has to make over 200 deviled eggs for the day, trust me.

The one thing I like about this series is it demonstrates how a pro's technique can play a huge role.
I love Emily's determination and sense of humour, and Chef Bill is so kind, but poor Rose! Coaching everyone but never getting to taste the fruit of her labours. Any chance she can be invited to the tasting at the end of these videos?

Honestly, one of the best pairings of people. I love their energy and how much fun it is to watch them do these things
I've been watching Epicurious content for a few years now, but I must say, Rosemary Trout is such a perfect awesome name for a food scientist lol Like, I wonder if she grew up around a family that was in the food similar careers so they named her that way or she just happened to fall into it coincidentally. There must be a story behind that
Cracked me up - "What is this?" "Oh No Oh No, I can't get it off!" Emily's hilarious!
Is the gold leaf just a gimmick to look pretty and jack up the price for the sake of this video? Maybe. But watching Emily interact with gold leaf was a special kind of fun and I'm here for it.

She was so afraid of his reaction to the point she was looking at his reaction instead of the cupcake he made *like she knew he will do a excellent job *,but it's really admirable how she did a great job making a new thing for the first time😂😂🥰 love this episode

This was fun to watch, interesting choices and bakers. Thank you
I love these episodes thanks epicurious from Colombia!!!
Yummy! Both cupcakes look delicious! I definitely learned some new cup caking techniques.
Thank you so much for having them try each other's creations !!!!!!!!
Baking is so hard so I give Emily prop for trying. Chef Bill was so nice cuz he didn;t give her a hard frosting like Italian buttercream or crazy pipping detail. He kept it pretty basic but make it so fancy at the same time which can be pretty hard.
I like the Emily/Bill combo. And I just love Bill 😍
Bill made sprinkles! And for the first time. Great way to enhance the ingredients!
Love bill!!! More of him pleeeease
Emily and David are my fav home cooks! I Love them so much 🤣❤️❤️ Bill and Grace are my fav pros! I love this series so much
Bill Clark is great hope to see him here more.
Both look so tasty 😍
I love Emily! She's a trooper and is so real.
Such a good episode. He really showed how versatile each basic ingredient is.
Emily. The piping tip *can* actually go on the outside too. That's how you can easily switch between tips. Mind you, I personally hate using that method but it also wastes less frosting. Technically. :P
Bill and Emily in one video? 😍😍

I truly appreciate how these videos don’t become ‘amateur doesn’t use expensive ingredients properly and everyone is frustrated and nobody learns anything’. Not only do we get to see someone take something simple and make it just a bit nicer, but we also see a normal home cook dabble with fun crazy ingredients without being thrown completely into the dark
Both cupcakes looked amazing! One of both please 🙂

Unfortunately, along with being slightly more expensive, I found out AM is owned by a giant corporation, so I'll probably go back to KA. AM's yellow corn meal is fantastic as well, but agan, expensive.
