But I wondered how the larger, decorated cakes taste - since most of the attention is paid on the decoration and usually loads of fontant I assumed those cakes probably were not all that great tasting - especially since I don't fondant.

I actually had one of those Cake Boss cake's at a communion party that Sephoni's TKD demo team performed at. It was beautiful but honestly not very tasty. But, I still love the show (he is a hoot and his cakes are gorgeous) and I bet your nephews will love the gift. Hugs Jia Lady Rose

These are easy gifts to give for those times when you want to give something small to a friend or coworker.

A couple of small things for hubby and Angelgirl. But for everyone else (like nieces and nephews and friends) most likely this year will gift cards unless some blast of inspiration hits me in time - for example my one sister's 2 kids LOVE cake boss so instead of the usual gift card that I do each year for them I picked up Cake Boss 2 books, baking set, and bobble head doll. ***hugs and love to all*** I’ve picked up a few things here and there for the holidays – I got my mom’s gift (just something small and then the usual $100 which she counts on) and my one brother who is in a nursing home I picked up a few things (heating pad for his back and some sugar free treats).
