Cake and Cookie Presentations

[ Edited ]

When presenting cake or cookies, the presenter often squeezes or mashes the item into an unappetizing mush.  It's very disgusting to look at and sometimes turns me off from purchasing the product.  I'm sure there are lots of better ways to present a food product in a more appetizing way.

@MyNicknameNotAvailable Doesn't bother me, so I am thankful you don't have to endure the unpleasantness.  To each their own.

@MyNicknameNotAvailable.  How would you suggest they demonstrate the moistness of baked goods?

@MyNicknameNotAvailable    It must not turn away the majority of the buyers.  Seems as if almost all the posts do something similar repeatedly.  If the sales were tapering off, the producers would be giving the hosts different instructions.

🦂 All I know is that all of the lobsters in Rockland, Maine don't ever want to see Rick Domeier and his giant fork again.

If I'm interested in something, then I'm interested in it. I guess I'm just not sensitive enough to imagine any host squeezing a food item would deter me from a purchase.

The only food presentation that grossed me out was when a host would take Grandma's Coffee Cake and roll it into tiny "doughballs."  Repeatedly,  one for each flavor.  Never understood the rationale for that.

 

Never annoyed by anything else.

This is pretty much what I was going to say. It was like the host was going out of their way to gross you out. 

 

The vendor should kindly ask the host to stop it.
