As TV viewers everywhere already know, Cake Boss stars Buddy Valastro who – along with his family and crew -- create the most beautiful, extraordinary, eye-popping cakes from his shop, Carlo’s Bakery in Hoboken, NJ. Buddy, his four sisters, two brothers-in-law and cousins, plus a team of expert bakers, decorators and sculptors, make the impossible both possible and edible.
