  1. I enjoy this channel; however, I find it frustrating when they feature recipes that appear delectable yet fail to provide a detailed ingredient list with corresponding measurements.

  2. Love cream puffs, love rhubarb. I would not have thought of putting them together, but it sounds delish.

  3. Please broadcast honest, humble, knowledgeable, real chefs who deserve the recognition. The tiktok stars have to go. This person comes off as incredibly self inflated and why is she yelling?

  4. Vanilla extract should not be added at the beginning of the recipe when making pastry cream. PLEASE get a person with actual baking skills to demonstrate recipes. 🙄
