== Comic Books ==
* Mocked in the [[Lion King|Timon and Pumbaa]] comics in ''[[Disney Adventures]]'': a fictional cooking show uses ''fake'' ones they prepared earlier. As it just so happens, the day they were doing pigs was the day that a) they forgot to put in the fake and b) the day Pumbaa climbed into the fake oven. [[Hilarity Ensues|With hilarious consequences]].
 
== Live-Action TV ==
* ''[[Blue Peter]]'' is the Trope Namer.
* ''[[The Frugal Gourmet]]'' had something like that. He had two ovens, one atop the other, and would pop the dish he had prepared into the one and then take one he prepared earlier out of the other.
Line 16 ⟶ 20:
* Happens with ''Art Attack'' and ''Smart'', both of which are art programmes, and since the stuff being made would often need to dry overnight, the presenters would need to take out things they'd prepared earlier.
* Australia's ''[[Play School]]'' does this for art and craft all the time, even using the trope name, although sometimes they seemed to do it to avoid the tricky part of the process...
* Parodied in an episode of ''[[The Basil Brush Show]]'', where the eponymous fox finds a muffin recipe from one of his relatives, but they take 45 minutes to make whilst the show is only 25 minutes. Cue a screenwipe where we see a tray of finished muffins and Basil saying, "And here are some I made earlier."
* Averted in ''30-minute meals with [[Rachael Ray]]''. Rachael does continue cooking during commercial breaks, but unless something gets burned and she has to replace it, there's no 'prepared earlier' food.
* A non-food example: During the "Jaws Special" on ''[[MythBusters]]'', Adam was talking to the camera about the method he was using to build a fake shark, and pulled out a mockup "he'd prepared earlier".
* Another non-food example is lampshaded on ''[[The Secret Life Ofof Machines]]''. Tim is detailing how old fashioned blue prints are made as part of the program about the photocopier. After putting some chemicals on the blank paper and the drawing to be copied on top of it, it then has to be exposed to bright light. "This actually takes rather a long time, so um, I've done one already that I've prepared earlier, a bit like a cookery program."

* Non-food: On Chicago's ''Ray Raynor and his Friends'' Ray would do an at-home crafts project following instructions, the implication being that kids at home would do it at the same time. They'd have one they prepared earlier (used as a model, "this is what it looks like when you've finished") which would look great, and the one Ray made would look like shit.
 
== Puppet Shows ==
* Parodied in an episode of ''[[The Basil Brush Show]]'', where the eponymous fox finds a muffin recipe from one of his relatives, but they take 45 minutes to make whilst the show is only 25 minutes.

== Web Original ==
* Non-food: In a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILxjxfB4zNk British PSA for a CPR technique], actor [[Vinnie Jones]] proceeds to demonstrate, noting he needs a guy who's not breathing. Cue a body being slid across the floor in front of him and Vinnie stating, "Here's one I made earlier."
 
== Western Animation ==
* In an episode of ''[[Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy]]'', Rolf is telling the boys about a family cure for pimples that needs to be brewed overnight. Eddy (who has a ridiculously large pimple on his head) complains, but Rolf cuts him off by saying fortunately he prepared some earlier. Ed claps.
