The TLC series Cake Boss returned for its second season on October 26, 2009. TLC has cooked up fresh new episodes of the series about a New Jersey bakery run by Buddy Valastro and his big Italian family. Cake Boss airs on Monday nights at 10 PM ET/PT.
During season one over 2 million people tuned in each week to see Buddy and his team create mouth-watering creations – from how-did-they-do-that cakes to trays of traditional Italian pastries. As sweet as their creations are, the real treat is the loving antics of the entire Valstro family. While Buddy might be running the shop, he works alongside his mother, four sisters, three brothers-in-law, and other extended family, who don’t always see him as the “boss.”
“Buddy and his family have captured the hearts of America, and their skills in the bakery are more impressive each week. Buddy is a true artist,” said Nancy Daniels, SVP, Production & Development, TLC. “The new season will not only bring more great cakes and Valastro hijinks, but we’re giving our audience a chance to experience CAKE BOSS across all of our platforms. The great success of the series has also reinforced our commitment to developing more programming that celebrates the connection our viewers have with food.”
According to TLC, viewers can expect to see cakes that continue to defy expectations this season. Cake creations range from a gigantic ring that helps make the sweetest proposal possible, to Buddy and his team attempting to create a life-size race car cake for the Retail Bakers of America annual event. Can the “cake boss” make it to the finish line when all his peers are watching?
