colegrovet said:my dir, when I signed, did ice in the 8" saute pan, she thought she dumped the ice water out, well she left some in the pan, and when she flipped it up to show everyone the bottom of the pan, she dumped what water was in the pan down her shirt.
Also at a training show with her, she did a cake in the fluted pan, the hostess said her microwave was powerful.. It sure was, within 8 min. the cake was baked and hard as a brick...
I had a cake explode in the rice cooker, covered the entire inside of the microwave..

easy...You add 2L orange soda & scoop softened vanilla ice cream, then plunge.
WELL for what ever made me do it I took ALL my might to squash down the ice cream in the soda...IT shot out of the spout about 10 FEET!!!! I still chuckle when I think of it
Thank goodness for 2 things.... NO one was in my splash zone and we were NOT on carpet!

What was even more embarassing is that four of the shows were booked off one show so I had repeat customers! By the fourth show, it became a joke and the guests were watching to see what I would forget.

I'm not sure why, but I was ALL thumbs that night--food was flying everywhere, including scoops of ice cream that kept flying out of the scoop (see? it releases really well!).
My neighbor still teases me about it as well as one of her friends who now holds an annual show in November.
The craziest thing that has ever happened at one of our cooking shows was when a guest accidentally set off the fire alarm while trying to cook a dish. It was quite a surprise, but luckily everything turned out fine and we were able to continue with the show after the fire department checked everything.
While we have had our fair share of small mishaps, the only major accident we've had was when a guest accidentally spilled hot oil on their hand while frying something. We quickly provided first aid and made sure they were okay before continuing with the show.
We always make sure to have a backup plan in case something unexpected happens during a cooking show. Whether it's a missing ingredient or a broken kitchen tool, we have alternative options ready to keep the show running smoothly. Our consultants are also trained to think on their feet and adapt to any situation that may arise.
While we strive for everything to go perfectly at every cooking show, there have been a few instances where multiple things went wrong. One time, the power went out in the middle of a show, but our consultant was able to continue with the show using a gas grill. It ended up being a unique and memorable experience for everyone.
One time, a guest's dog ran into the kitchen and stole a chicken breast that was being prepared for a dish. It was a hilarious and unexpected moment that had everyone laughing. We quickly replaced the chicken and continued with the show, but it definitely made for a memorable experience!
