In this heartfelt memoir, master baker and star of the #1
hit TLC show, Buddy Valastro tells his inspiring story—and
recounts his family’s warm memories from a lifetime of
living, loving, and cake making. Television viewers have fallen in love with Buddy Valastro,
master cake maker, and his funny and fiery family,
proprietors of Carlo’s Bakery in Hoboken, New Jersey, on the
smash hit TLC series Cake Boss. Now, to coincide with
Carlo’s 100th anniversary, cake designer extraordinaire
Buddy Valastro brings together his passion for baking and
his high-energy family stories in the pages of this
charming, heartwarming book—complete with 25 recipes and
tips that will make every reader the “cake boss” of their
own kitchen. Buddy’s beautifully designed cakes are the stuff
of legend—and so is the remarkable story of his father, a
beloved pillar of the community and himself a talented baker
who set the stage for his family’s rise to the pinnacle of
their industry. Cake Boss recounts the story of Buddy’s life
and of his family’s bakeshop, originally established in 1910
and now a Hoboken, New Jersey, landmark and culinary tourist
destination. Here also are twenty-five recipes for Carlo’s
Bakery’s most sought-after pastries, pies, cupcakes, and
cakes, an irresistible combination of time-tested old-world
recipes and modern creations, all founded on a rock-solid
“old-school” baking foundation and classic techniques. This is the incredible true story of how Carlo’s
Bakery came to be, how one hard-working family realized
their patriarch’s dream of making their beloved bake shop a
household name. The special bond and loving dynamic of the
Valastro clan make this an uncommonly touching and truly
inspiring memoir.
