Earlier this week I reviewed Cake Boss by Buddy Valastro and gave it 5 spoons! (Yes, I really loved the book!) It's a memoir, it's a book with great recipes from Carlo's Bakery, and it is a great read. Here's what Buddy writes on the back of the book...
Giveaway has ended! And the Winner is... Heidi V! Thanks to EVERYONE who entered, tweeted and blogged about the giveaway!
How I Became the Cake BossMy story isn't my own; no real baker's is. They call me the Cake Boss, but that's just the latest chapter in my own story, which stretches back generations, all the way to my roots in Sicily. In this book, I tell the only-in-America story of my family's rise to success at Carlo's Bake Shop and of the father-son relationship at the heart of my journey. It's a story that combines immigrant struggle, family bonds, love, loss and as many hilarious memories as I could pack between two covers. If you like my show, or just sitting down to a good story (and learning a few secrets of the baking treade along the way), you'll love this book.Of course, no book could be called Cake Boss without offering up the goods: at the end, you'll find thirty-seven recipes for Carlo's Bake Shop's most popular cookies, pastries, pies, cakes and cupcakes - along with tips and advice for creating these classics in your own home. I poured my heart into this book, and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it..... Buddy Valastro, the Cake Boss

My teen-age granddaughter recently became very interested in baking - cakes and cup cakes. I'd love to share this book with her.

I never miss an episode of Cake Boss.
My husband and I feel that they are family because of their shenanigans, creative thinking and strong family ties. Buddy's father bought Carlos'
Bakery so that all his family would have jobs. I love this show and am
positive that I would love this book.
