Duff Goldman In Hawaii

duff goldman in hawaii showing off lost cake

Last week, the Ace of Cakes crew traveled to Hawaii to make a cake for the cast and crew of Lost. While there, Duff Goldman decided to say “thank you” to the men and women in uniform by making them a partially edible helicopter cake so small that it wouldn’t even serve everyone. Maybe it was a slow day at Schofield Barracks, because 500 people showed up to support Duff – some even wearing special t-shirts that they had printed for the occasion:

If we were in Hawaii, these are the t-shirts we would have worn:

    Am I seeing things? A website that is not kissing Duff Goldman’s ass?! I think I’m in love!

    How is this man on TV, let alone being paid thousands of dollars to make cakes?!

    I am a cake maker (35 years) and I can tell you that helicopter cake is only about 40% edible with all the frame work and support structures that had to go into it. I sure hope he brought some other cakes to feed the 500 people who showed up

    This guy is such a famewhore it makes me sick. How he charges people a MINIMUM $1000.00 for one these cakes is mind boggling.

    And whoever made the call on the bra, good observation.Duff Goldman has bigger titties than Mary Alice.

    Ace of Cakes. We all need a good wash .

    Let me get this straight – this guy goes out of his way to make and deliver a cake to our men and women in uniform and you guys shit on him? Really classy. I was there and not only did he and others bring enough cake for all 1200 people in attendance, they stayed an extra three hours to make sure every military family that came got a picture/autograph/cake. Maybe if you had seen what the visit meant to all those military families you wouldn’t be so quick to put up such a misinformed post. Do your homework. Snark doesn’t equal humor.

    Goldman would not have been in Hawaii if not for ABC flying his crew over, so stop trying to make it seem he is Saint Duff. Not a chance in hell he paid for one piece of cake that was served to the troops. Most likely came form the Safeway bakery dept.
    As for staying another 3 hours, ever hear about waiting for a flight and killing time ?

    sorry j but you are seriously the one who is mis innformed. i never leave a comment on a web page but your comment pissed me off so much i had to say this.

    i dont know where you did your research but there is clearly no way you were there at shoba. you clearly read the article the mainland newspapers published about it which was all promotional and glossy and written to just turn duff into some do gooding hero. if he wants to do so much good lets see him join the service and do something instead of just getting a free all expenses paid trip to hawaii and dropping off some cake that he didnt even make

    i was actually there at schofield and they didn’t stay anywhere for 3 hours. are you drunk??? there were not 1200 people there, there was 500 maximum at most. and they did not stay for 3 hours. they stayed for 1 maximum at most

    and about 3 people had custom made t-shirts. one of which was my wifes friend and she made it the week before. i saw what it meant to most people, a break from the daily life on base but not much more so stop exaggerating

    i am a military man, my father is a military man and my son will be a military man and were not offended by this post, we laughed at it and thats what you should do to,
    final words, get a life

    i also wanted to add i like your page alot, it makes me and my fam laugh every day.

    now that means more to us all here than a chance to get a photograph with some chef who couldn’t give 2 craps about us and we’ll never see again in our lifetimes

    thank you please keep up the honest funny writing

    Well. I don’t know how many people showed up or how many hours anyone waited. I do know this post was snarky and funny and we all thoroughly enjoyed it here in cubicle land.

    As I often say: “One good deed does not un-douchify a man”

    So Snark Away!

    Um, I’m with Mike In Detroit here.

    Duff Goldman got a free trip to Hawaii, and as a publicity stunt, dropped off a cake to a military base (instead of actually dedicating his life to the service), and we’re supposed to glorify him?

    GIVE ME A $^#$^!^&* BREAK!!!!!

    That’s exactly what this was, a publicity stunt! Did we hear about the Lost cake in the news? NO! We heard about the military cake. Wake up J, really, wake up.

    WAKEY WAKEY, DUFF’S A FAKEY!

    PS I just did some more google research on this, and found an article from the Star Bulliten (in Hawaii) which proves what commenter HILARY said… there were 500 people in the crowd! Not 1200 like fake commenter J said!

    “…….about 500 people showed up to see Duff and his latest creation…..”

    The “J” is probably that little turd over at Food Network Addict. I think he idolizes Ass of Cakes crew as Mary Alice is a fag hag and adopted him.

    As for Goldman joining the military, yeah right. I can’t see him surviving basic training.

    I know someone who played “hockey” against him and they said he was the biggest creampuff on the ice. Real chickenshit fraidy cat. Mary Alice could probably kick the crap out if him.

    Uh, I was their princess. The estimated crowd was 500. 1500 people showed up as stated on the Army’s press release:

    LMFAO. You were “their” — is that so? Apparently you skipped basic 4th grade English to be there.

    My facts are correct. I believe a non-biased paper like the Star Bulletin, before I’d believe an article written by the US Army and published on their website. I’m surprised they didn’t say 5,000 people were there.

    Get YOUR facts straight, “princess” because you’re full of #%@&

    ok j if you were there you clearly would know this:

    what is the name of the most highly decorated man to ever serve in the tropic lightning division — since his name was mentioned about 40 times that day

    oh wait you dont know, that is because you are full of it

    Without question,Duff Goldman is a douche.Hands down. A guy who looks like he does and was passed over in the looks dept will tend to act like this to compensate.

    He surrounds himself with “peers” who are way nerdier than he ,as this makes him feel much better about himself in lieu of an attractive persona and aura.

    That and his religion.

    You mean a pic next to our face in the comments? You have to go to gravatar.com – and sign up for an account. And then it automatically inserts a photo next to your name, if you use that same email address. And voila!

    Would you look at that, “J” disappeared when challenged. I’ll take “SHOCKER” for $1,000, Alex!

    Hilary, thank you for having a sense of humor and for understanding what we’re trying to do here with the page, which is LIGHTEN THINGS UP A BIT! You clearly get that, so thank you! Glad we are bringing a few smiles and laughs your way :)

    I was also there. Im not sure where all this hate for Duff is coming from….but it is pretty funny to read.

    It was only about 500 people.

    I was involved with flying him around in the Blackhawk and got to talk to him for a bit. For someone that has a “celebrity” status, he was actually a pretty cool guy. Down to earth, not an ass like some celebs are(Be that A B C D list celebs) We even gave him suggestions on how to make it more realistic. He used a few of the ideas…he could of just dismissed us like we knew nothing.

    I just laugh at the effort some of you put into hating someone you have never met in real life.

    Duff Goldman gave a lecture at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Wash., D.C. about a year ago. He attended some summer sessions there while he was in high school.

    There was a reception with food afterwards, and I couldn’t wait to see what kind of cake he brought. HE DIDN’T BRING A CAKE! I couldn’t believe it! D.C. is only 50 miles from his shop, for Pete’s sake.

    I wrote a letter to the Corcoran, but they never bothered to respond.

    I met Duff a couple years ago when he came into a place I was working.
    He was very cute and also very nice and friendly.
    What did he do to you people? ;)

    Hey you guys are sooooo funny! Yeah Duff is a huge ass douche bag. Happen to be channel surfing earlier this week & by accident (I swear) tuned to that stupid TLC show about Jon & Kate + 8 bratty kids & Duff the buff (not) was actually on that pretend reality crap baking cakes for the crazy/insane mother…..oy vey. What a fame whore he is. Plus I think he was flirting with that stupid cow…eeeeuuuuwwww, I hope to never see that again, please GOD. Maybe next time we see old Duff he’ll be baking cakes for those morons on I’m a celebrity, get me out of here, dumbass show. WHOOHOO.

    I think this site is a load of bull. Do something better with your time and get a life instead of bashing on some one you dont even know. You think Duff is lame? Ha, might as well speak for yourselves. Wasting time to make a lame ass website…wow, your so cool and we all admire you SO much.

    I have to admit I like the show. Don’t care much about Duff but I do like the show. I think the people that work there (in general) are extremely talented.

    Cassie and MMMMM I am on board with you! I am a fan of Ace of Cakes I find it humorous because I like that kind of humor. Oops does that make me a lame ass douchebag? Apparently it does. I agree with you who say how can you bash someone you don’t even know? Ever heard the saying “don’t throw stones..” Man, some of you are harsh! Maybe he is a famewhore, maybe he isn’t- who cares! If you were getting paid big $$$ maybe u would be too. The show is meant to entertain and that’s it. If you don’t like it then don’t watch it! Bashing someone for their looks or how they dress and even worse their religion, just makes you sound so childish. Not calling you childish, but thats how you sound based on your comment. “Stupid cow”? “Huge ass douche bag”? Really Nancy? You should hear yourself! How old are you? Is that how you always talk about people? Or just people who you know won’t/can’t/don’t have the time to fight back? Maybe you think it’s funny or whatever, but really, your comment makes you sound like you have issues of your own. Not saying you do, as I dont know you so I’m not going to stoop to your level and label you as “stupid” or a “douchebag” or call you any other names, but just felt really felt the need to point that out.
