"The ingredients aren't the problem - there are kosher versions available of all the ingredients needed for this "recipe."

The problem is that this culturally insensitive cake has nothing to do with Chanukah! (Yes, I'm aware the "recipe" is called "Star of David Angel Food Cake", but Food Network obviously, and wisely, renamed it so as not to offend people - she clearly refers to it as a "Chanukah" cake in the episode in which she prepares it.)
"Of course, Chanukah [icing] will be blue," Ms. Lee claims in the "Holiday Show" episode. WTF?! The color blue has nothing to do with Chanukah! Neither does the star of David!

Food Network, how can you pay this woman?! Not only does she scrupulously avoid any actual cooking on her show, but she obviously doesn't even do research as she prepares her "recipes!" This cake has as little to do with Chanukah as her disastrous "Kwanzaa Cake" had to do with Kwanzaa. She ought to be fired.
