Local Woman Set To Appear On Disney Cooking Show

    The streaming service Disney+ will debut a new show, “Foodtastic” on December 15, featuring three contestants in competition to create ‘extravagant scene work and larger-than-life sculptures made entirely out of food’, according to Disney. Among the contestants on the show will be Umatilla resident Tammy Mashburn, owner of an edible art business and a body shop assistant manager.
   Mashburn, who hails from Eustis originally, has been making custom cakes for over ten years, and is a self-taught award-winning cake artist. Her work has appeared in publications including 'Cake Central', 'Cake Masters', and 'Cakes Decor'.
   "Cake decorating pushes the limits of what you can create, and I love continually learning," Mashburn said this week in advance of the show's debut.
   Mashburn, who says she was chosen for the show due to her ‘super amazing cake super powers’, said the experience was exciting and fulfilling.
   “It was an honor to be chosen to lead a team. The builds are so amazing.”
   “Foodtastic” will be available for streaming beginning on December 15.
