Reading, Berkshire.
C/U shot of hands pouring a chocolate filling into an icing bag. A man fills the bag and moves it away. M/S of another man decorating cake. High angle C/U shot of the cake as the man decorates it. Decorations look amazing - very precise and very fragile. The artist's name is Mr Jack Bryant and he is decorating cakes since 1913 in the same cake and biscuit factory in Reading where his father was doing it for 60 years.
High angle C/U shot of the cake as Mr Bryant draws a kangaroo in almost no time - extraordinary skill. M/S of Mr Bryant climbing onto scaffolding?! He has to lie down on it in order to decorate a central motif on a large white cake. C/U shot of a little flowery detail on the cake. M/S of Mr Bryant decorating the cake in lying position. C/U shot of Mr Bryant's face as he works.
L/S of the room enables the spectators to see how large the cake is - it is nearly size of a bed. Several shots of Mr Bryant working. High angle M/S of the cake. Mr Bryant is writing "60th Anniversary" on the cake. As Mr Bryant moves away, audience sees the cake with all its decorations and the sign - great!
BRITISH PATHÉ'S STORY
Before television, people came to movie theatres to watch the news. British Pathé was at the forefront of cinematic journalism, blending information with entertainment to popular effect. Over the course of a century, it documented everything from major armed conflicts and seismic political crises to the curious hobbies and eccentric lives of ordinary people. If it happened, British Pathé filmed it.
Now considered to be the finest newsreel archive in the world, British Pathé is a treasure trove of 85,000 films unrivalled in their historical and cultural significance.
British Pathé also represents the Reuters historical collection, which includes more than 136,000 items from the news agencies Gaumont Graphic (1910-1932), Empire News Bulletin (1926-1930), British Paramount (1931-1957), and Gaumont British (1934-1959), as well as Visnews content from 1957 to the end of 1984. All footage can be viewed on the British Pathé website. www.britishpathe.com/

That cake was made for someone's 60th anniversary, and now we're watching the video 60 years later... Whatever anniversary they were celebrating happened 120 years ago, and it has been probably completely forgotten to everyone but those who watch this video.... Kinda mind blowing if you ask me

And if it weren't for the internet, we'd probably never get a chance to see these films. I once heard on the radio a recording of a man who saw the Duke of Wellington's funeral in 1852. And there's a photo out there of Hannah Stilley that was taken when she was 94 . She's the earliest born human being to have been photographed, born 1746, closer to the Tudors than to us now.

If you browse videos on the channel that uploaded this, videos from that time period (50s - early 70s, probably) are often like that. There's even a 1959 video of an Owl eating chicken at a Restaurant,* and they still have the music. *That video is "Owl Dines Nightly."
60 years ago, this cake serve as a grand addition to a 60th anniversary event. So 120 years ago, someone had something great for them that calls for an anniversary celebration (could be marriage, birthday, or any event). Those who actually eat or order the cake might forget it or most likely no longer live with us. But through this video, we're able to grasp a tiny detail of that event, which was this awesome cake from Mr. Brian

It's really interesting that so many people make the same comment as Day Dreamer. But, as a amateur cake artist myself, the creator never feels that way. I think the artist gets their final satisfaction when the cake is done. He or she may step back and admire their own work for a moment, take a photo and then psychologically they let go. If you get to see people admiring your cake and saying how delicious it is, that's an added bonus, but not even really necessary for the cake artist to feel satisfied.

The mass produced crap doesn’t taste good and leaves you feeling yuck afterwards. A real bakery is such a treat. They still exist, but rare.
Jack Bryant was the son of William Bryant, who had also been the head of the Cake Icing Department. In 1947 Jack Bryant worked for three weeks, including weekends, to ice the royal wedding cake for the marriage of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. The cake was originally designed to weigh 400lb but Buckingham Palace requested a reduced 'Austerity' cake of only 195lb! Jack Bryant demonstrated his art for BBC television in 1954 in a programme called 'Sculpture in Sugar'. At the time he had worked for Huntley & Palmers for 41 years. His father had decorated cakes for Huntley & Palmers for 62 years.
God this had me so anxious when he was hovering over that cake.
The big cake was decorated like an ancient hall/building!!! What a detailed work....!!!!
that cursive writing on the cake, in the end, is so beautiful! 👌❤️
I had seen this this on my recommendations a few times but kept passing, I finally clicked today, oh, boy was I blown away! Magnificent work of art. I don’t think I would have been able to eat a cake decorated by this phenomenal artist, would have almost felt like a sin. May he rest in peace.

Wow, an impressive blast from the past. Appreciate this filmed archive. So glad videos are keeping interesting and important aspects of western culture available for posterity to view & enjoy.
man...back then they didnt mess around..even when it came to cakes.
I just love how back in those times, people had a (different) sense of work ethics and integrity. Look at that pastry chef, he is enthralled by his work. Such precise workmanship. I'm a pastry chef as well and cakes have definitely come a long way from then, and we take our work very seriously... But there's just something so special about the (relative) "simplicity" of cakes back then and how important the role of a pastry chef was.
I liked this. Attention to detail in those days. Not just slap it on and stuff it in. People took pride in their work and it was appreciated.

This reminds me of a baker across the street in the village where I lived in the late 50s. He made large trays of small cakes. He often asked me to put little chocolate leaves or silver balls or any other sugar decorations on the finished product. Very time consuming for him but fantastic for me. He always asked me because the other kids kept eating all the decorations. Lol.
I was half expecting the narrator to say "extreme cake icing". lol! Instead he said "the icing of cakes in the grand manner." So cool.
1950s where houses in the uk can cost around 1000 pounds, and that cake is like 10% the cost of a house wow

Fondant cakes are just for looks no eating.
Thst is some serious cake decorating. I could watch him all day.
Ooooh.. He is a extremely talented... Man... So professional... He is a guru... 🙏I really appreciate and respect him into my heart.
those were all fruit cakes and with liquored up fruit cake you had months to decorate exquisitely. Now people want sponge and pound cake. They don't keep so you have to work really really fast - health.

Chloe7 Seven they freeze the cake now, so that they can extend the decorating time while allowing the cake to stay fresh.

Agreed. Also yeah you xan freeze a cake but it buys you ultimately how long? Not long really. Maybe a day or two depending on flavors and such. And also people like to order cakes the day before all the time.

@@abijigoku - the kinds of cakes you get that are ordered two days ahead of time now don't get anything like this kind of attention, skill and dexterity. Mostly they get plastic bits, computerized transfers, icing roses you learn the first day of cake decorating class, and a couple of words in sugar icing on the top. And you need to be careful how those order forms are filled out, too - I've seen the decorators take it absolutely literally when they read the directions! Things like "No wording here" actually getting transferred to the portion for the greeting!! 😉

@@sharid76 No youd be surprised the balls some people have the day before they need the cake. I've had last minute order requests some days and had them ask for chocolate work /pieces to gum paste flowers covering a 4 tier. And you can do a lot with 2 days notice. More that plastic toys and icing prints or buttercream flowers.

@@abijigoku As a cake decorator of 40+ years, I hate the idea of plastic toys (or plastic anything) on a cake! But buttercream flowers are beautiful, and they take skill to make, and I take great pride in the skill I have in making them, especially since I detest fondant and refuse to use it. I refuse to put anything on a cake that others peel off before they consider it edible.
He isn't human..he is an android... Is there anymore of these kind of super talents still exist in 2018..? I'd like their video's too...these people are rare .
