Wonderful character development!

Highly Overrated But Still Good

A Masterpiece!

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

its all the same they get an order to make a cake they make a the cake incident free and they get into fights then they get another order and you get the drill by now nothing keeps you watching its so boring my daily life is more interesting to watch than cake boss and if they are not making cakes then there watching they are shopping for more ingredient's also where is the party you think they would show you the party but no that would be to interesting and you have to keep the honey BO BO crowd waiting oh and he has three more shows one where he gets people to make cakes and one where he helps business and yes they are just as boring as cake maybe less interesting

A Bride, A Boat, and Bamboozled! That's the descriptive title of the very first episode of the TV series Cake Boss, the saga of Carlo's Bake Shop in Hoboken, New Jersey. Witness the assembly of three last minute wedding cakes for a magazine display offering wonderful publicity, and experience an extravagant boat cake for a mysterious birthday person turning out to be the boss himself bamboozled by his staff into designing it at his own expense!The egotistical yet lovable thirty something boss is Buddy whose pace appears frenetic, but there's a method to his madness. I briefly worked as a caterer's assistant and it was non-stop action keeping up with customers' demands. Buddy reacts swiftly, continuously explaining and demonstrating his thought processes both in preparing goods and in managing his team.However, the voluminous information and complex proceedings may prove overwhelming, potentially spoiling your delight of the delicious products. I discovered the best way to watch this program is to purchase the DVD and generously use your player's slow motion, freeze frame, and rewind features. By absorbing things at your own stride, you can better view the delicate construction of the cake making process and contemplate the exquisite detail of the beautiful results.Let your mouth drool at the entirely edible boat cake: the water is made from crystal blue piping gel, and the sculptured bait box, tackle box, cooler, and fisherman are fashioned out of modeling chocolate. Eating a sample gives a new meaning to the expression taking in a work of art!Most employees are Buddy's relatives and although feuds are frequent, it's all in the family, so he and his actually live with the consequences and mutually repair the damage.Thus Cake Boss is more than a fabulous food show, it's also a cliff-hanging melodrama. Such a deal - two invaluable gems for the price of one. You'll positively hunger for later installments. Wait 'til you see the fire department drive their engine and truck to the bakery for photographs to more accurately create a fire scene cake where the realistic looking smoke cleverly consists of water vapor. And see how Buddy gets even with the delivery guy who messes up an especially gorgeous cake - don't worry, the fix is accomplished in a good clean fun way, I almost envied the guy, but he learns his lesson!Bon appetite!

This show is pretty good, the cakes are very creative and I usually end up wanting one of them at my parties, but CARLO or whatever the main characters' name is should SHUT THE HECK UP. He says "awesome" way too much in his annoying accent and honestly, he is a JERK. he yells at his employees, who, surprisingly, allow him to! this is ridiculous and wrong, considering that they are a lot nicer and less annoying than him. He is just mean and EXTREMELY self-centered. I get annoyed just listening to this guy. I absolutely hate him. But, otherwise, this show is very interesting. The cakes all look delicious, they are pretty and lovely, and much of the show actually shows the making of the cake.

I was excited to watch this show as I love Ace of Cakes. The first few minutes were promising, a great Italian family and their delicious looking cakes! After watching two episodes that both had clearly fake reality moments put in ruined the show. In one episode a bride to be pours ugly icing all over the cake when he steps out of the room and in another someone gets painters to paint the kitchen hot pink...fake situations and even worse reactions by the cast. These were only of a few of many unbelievable moments. Why can't we watch this clearly interesting family and talented bakers make cakes...to me that would be much more entertaining!
