Line 12:
== [[Comics]] ==
* [[Gaston Lagaffe]] once bakes an enormous souffle to cheer up his chronically depressed cousin. Initially it seems to work, but collapses at a critical moment, resulting in the "most depressing sight ever." Probably justified, since Gaston is a [[Cordon Bleugh Chef]] often bordering on a [[Lethal Chef]].
** He also accidentally transformed a Grand Marnier bottle into a rocket grenade while trying to flambee some crepes, missing the french president's limousine in a nearby parade by only a few meters.
Line 37:
* In the ''[[Master Chef]]'' semi-finals, the contestants had to make a chocolate souffle. Whitney, the eventual winner had a case of both [[Carrying a Cake]] and [[Endangered Souffle]] as she had to hurry and present the souffle to the judges as the souffle slowly sank.
* In one episode of ''[[My Three Sons]]'', "Happy Birthday, World," son Robbie tries to earn extra money by setting up a home business making birthday cakes. At one point, while he's making a set of cakes, a door is slammed in the house and causes the three cakes in the oven to collapse.
** Oddly enough the cakes that do come out of the oven fine look very much to have been topped already and put back in the pans upside-down giving them perfectly square tops.
* Used as a major plot point in an episode of ''Wimzies House''.
* Used in an episode of ''[[The Golden Girls]]'', although the souffle in question is never seen. In the episode where Rose is revealed to have a dependency on painkillers, she has violent mood swings when her prescription runs out; a local producer is trying to film a commercial in the kitchen with Sophia, and Rose comes in and tears him a new one for endangering the souffle that no one knew she was making.
Line 51:
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* ''[[Time Squad]]'', the one with Edgar Allan Poe.
* Inverted in ''[[The Tick (animation)]]'', where a mad baker attempts to create a giant souffle to smother The City. To collapse the souffle, the Tick must shoot himself out of a cannon at the speed of sound.
* In an episode of ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'', Spongebob causes the collapse of Squidward's souffle ''after'' it's removed from the oven.
* ''[[Futurama]]''. When long-time chef show host Helmut Spargle is replaced by the Emeril-esque Elzar, Elzar "BAM"s and causes Spargle's souffle to collapse.
