Casting Cake Artists for Mikey Day's "Is It Cake" Show

Nationwide casting! The casting team seeks cake artists for Netflix’s “Is It Cake”. See more details below. About the project: Created by Dan Cutforth and Jane Lipsitz, this mind-bending baking competition combines the excitement of a game show with the artistry of cake making. Premiering on Netflix on March 18, 2022, contestants strive to deceive celebrity judges by creating cakes that mimic common objects. Hosted by Mikey Day, “Is It Cake?” presents a baking contest where talented cake artists craft astonishing replicas of everyday objects like handbags and sewing machines. With higher stakes and even wilder bakes, hungry competitors vie for a substantial cash prize in the upcoming season.Each episode’s winner earns $5,000 and a shot at additional cash by correctly identifying real money from cake replicas. Inspired by the viral internet meme of the same name, “Is It Cake?” challenges participants and viewers alike to distinguish between cake and reality. Three contestants compete by crafting a cake within an eight-hour time frame, aiming to make it indistinguishable from the chosen object for that episode. Following the baking process, celebrity judges are presented with three groups of objects, each containing five identical items. Among these sets, one item is actually a cake created by one of the contestants. If the judges successfully identify the cake among the objects, the corresponding contestant is eliminated from the episode. Additional info: See the flyer attached for more info.
