Here’s a secret. The better part of my day is spent scrolling through 20-second food videos on Instagram. From dressing up glamorous looking cakes to the slowmo version of hot sauce being poured over chocolate discs, food videos are a delicious way to avoid all forms of human contact.
These videos can be very misleading too. They make cooking and baking appear so easy that you can’t wait to attempt something similar. This usually has disastrous results. Take note, we only recommend watching these food videos. Try making them at your own risk. Here are some of the most tempting ones.
Incredible Cakes
This lady Yolanda Gampp is nothing short of a celebrity baker. Her fabulous cakes have made her very popular on Instagram. Her videos show her making some very elaborate cakes in minutes – once again misleading common people. No, we ‘unchosen’ ones cannot do this.
This Russian lady is famous on Instagram for her beautifully decorated cakes. The sheer shine is such that you can see your own reflection in them.
Cake and Cupcake art
On some days, I deserve a medal for getting out of bed and successfully dressing myself. Then there are people who manage to create masterpieces with a little frosting and dress up tiny cupcakes. Well done people.

Melting Chocolate Balls
For the lack of a better word, let’s call them chocolate balls. I am sure everyone has seen that video of hot sauce being poured on a round chocolate ball. Within seconds the ball melts to reveal a surprise inside. I live for stuff like that.

Then there are desserts that once you take a bite, ooze out hot thick gooey chocolate. At times like you wonder why God made you so fat?
Cookies
These people make highly creative art on cookies. I can’t even draw on paper.
Creative desserts
Some desserts just make you cry out ‘ What are those?’ Here are some. Ever heard of a raindrop cake? Yes, it looks exactly like it sounds. I don’t what most of these are called, but that won’t stop me from digging in.
