Pastry Chef Attempts to Make Gourmet Combos | Bon Appétit

While we have a list of ingredients, nobody really knows how Combos are made. There is little to no information about Combos on the internet, which begs the question: what are they hiding? But not to worry, pastry chef Claire Saffitz is on the case! Join her as she attempts to unpack this mystery and make gourmet Combos!

It's Alive with Brad
It's Dead with Gabby
It's Fine with Claire

[LASmithBuxton]

I need an apron that says "Chris said it's fine."

[cinthia]

“it doesn’t seem like she’s fine” - summary of gourmet makes

[YuzuLovesDoodoo]

If you gave Chris a single Nerd candy piece do you think he would bite into it to taste it?

[krispennington]

Claire: “nobody talks about combos”

Delany: *whispers* “that’s the first rule of combos”

[Hannahcheg]

Everyone needs a friend like Chris. Will hype you up when they think you’re doing a good job, but also not afraid to call you out for not tempering chocolate

[MacDoesIt]

“I took an ambien last night” sounds like a typical sentence uttered in that kitchen

[skywuzhereyesturday]

Combos: Spends decades carefully hiding the secret techniques

Clair in a half hour show: I'm about to end this company's whole career

[leinadazodnems]

When she said sometimes they either go for recreating the product or make a higher quality of it, but here they did both...

You coud have said they did a COMBO

[BlinkedAgain]

Most American snacks I've heard of because they're mentioned in tv, books, movies etc but this is the first one I've genuinely never heard of once.

[Psiberzerker]

Claire: "I'm fine."

Everyone else: "You don't seem fine."

[juliaoconnor]

I feel robbed. Where is the ‘claire trying to carry all of the combos’ shot?

[sarasennott]

"I'm concerned about the lack of transparency around combos on the internet" sounds like a pitch for an article in The Atlantic

[Wyldefaeboy]

Claire please please please make gourmet Girl Scout cookies, specifically thin mints and Samoas. Thank you in advance

[thepushfitzyify]

I don't know why you do this to yourself Claire. They sell them in stores!

-John Oliver

“Maybe it’s a good time to stop.”
“It’s 3 o’clock in the afternoon.”
I mean, relatable.

[Grungen]

At around 9:01 when Claire sais "for mentos", it sounded to me like "fermento's", which would be a great name for Brads line of fermented cereal.

[memeboooiiii]

they should make a second show where claire goes to the factories of some of the things she made

[jonathankirk]

EDITORS STOP CUTTING GABBY OFF I WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS GABBY ERASURE

[charliesomething]

Claire: "But maybe this is a good time to stop."


Director: "It's not. It's 3 o'clock in the afternoon."
