Corridor baker competes in the 'Ultimate Cake Off'

Wednesday, September 23, 2009

Can Martha Hebert bake the ultimate cake? We won't know until she appears next week on TLC's Ultimate Cake Off. The owner of Sweet Southern Ladies in St. Martinville and her team face off against two other contestants in a challenge to create an edible masterpiece in hopes of winning $10,000 and having their cake featured at a marquee event. With only nine hours, the competitors must make cakes that are at least five feet tall and creative enough to win the taste of the client and clinch the ultimate prize. To add to the pressure, the contestants also face two mini-challenges — a skills test and a taste test — that could give one team the ultimate advantage: being able to force another team to lose 30 minutes from their preparation time. Hebert co-owns the baker with her sister and best friend Becky. The show airs Monday night.
