"It's not a horsehead in jelly, it's pretty yum" had me laughing out loud. I love your family, Ann. Thank you for sharing this!

14:33 "A decorated tower.... with the bleeding heads of your enemies...." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 This is my favorite take on your 2-day-slog masterpiece! This young Mr. Reardon definitely inherited his father's sense of humo

My great grandpa had a hand crank wooden bucket ice cream maker and we'd spend our summer weekends of the 80's cranking up ice cream in the shade of the open garage door. What a memory. Your determination and execution was, as always, something I truly admire. Aloha from Hawai'i 🌺

"Your grass, your tower.... your bleeding heads of your enemies.' Gotta love Ann's family!

These hundred year old recipes always amaze me. The culinary artists from back then certainly were ambitious. Combined with the lack of our modern technology, and it’s a miracle that they were able to come up with stuff like this 🤯🙌

"you have your grass, your decorated tower... The bleeding heads of your enemies" 😂

I genuinely love how all your boys approach each new Ye Olde Culinary Creation with a mixture of terror and joy. And then there's Dave, equally as frightened as his sons, but game to try whatever you put in front of him. Well done, Ann! I can't imagine how much editing you had to do to get this glorious monstrosity down to a sane kind of size! Not to mention all the whipping...truly, you are a modern day hero.

Ann, that shape is called horse eye, at least with gems and stuff. The artist in me really appreciates these old cookbooks, the pictures are just amazing. My kitchen wall is covered with old cookbook pictorials, so I may be impartial.. What a lovely, extra decadent dessert! Definitely not for everyday..

this video is a cinematic masterpiece🤌✨

I can definitely understand trying your hardest to use time period accurate ingredients, but the decision to use time period accurate tools is amazing dedication, and personally I really appreciate it, thank you Ann!

That whitening the almonds brought back memories of my abuela having my sister and I peal walnuts for the Chiles en Nogada. All these ancient recipes were a group effort and must be appreciated as such. Especially when done by one person, like you did. Thanks.

It's so surreal seeing how grown up all these boys are now! Great channel, love it.

Cherry juice for icing. Genius. I don't know how something that easy and delicious sounding isn't more common. Edit: Guess I'm outta the loop, haha. Thanks for the tips everyone.

I hope this video gets 20 million views. All that work alone certainly deserves it.

Amazing. I bet these were done in kitchens with various people on staff who would do different parts, I can't imagine the hours and hours that took! The ice cream looks delicious. The cinematography of this video is great!

The amount of dedication she has is incredible. I would have lost my cool if I had to try and glue those barely sticking pieces to the dessert!😆😆

I have to say the videography has to be the best of all your videos. The black background, the well timed music, and your voice and AMSR style sound effects.. Great stuff

Wow Ann, that tower of ice cream sandwitch turned out so beautifully! You're so skilled! Also, one of your boys saying that it was topped with the bloody heads of the enemies made my week because YES 😂

Your editing is always so good, but that little segment of you pounding the blanched almonds was great! Everyone has this image of old-timey cooking taking a long time, but never that it's so laborious and intense. I'm glad this recipe was actually delicious because of how long it took and of course your family is great to see. The "bloody heads" on the "tower" and "horse head in jelly" comments were great. And it's nice to see how trusting/willing they are to just eat these things that may not taste great. That knife bit was scary though!
