Ace Of Cakes

Weddings and a birthday populate the second season premiere, as a delivery requires Duff's personal services, and the standard-bearer for groom cakes is created.

Chaos ensues while Duff is gone, since there are 39 cakes to prepare this week, and Mary Alice must deal not only with her regular duties, but dip her finger into repairs when a broken cake comes back in. Meanwhile, Duff is having a grand old time on his version of a road trip which includes using the van as his stove.

Duff employs some unusual methods to get inspiration for a Scottish wedding cake, a cake is ordered with an addition, and the team is challenged with a flower-themed cake.

Duff and his team are faced with two weddings that each want two cakes, one for the groom and one each for three brides. All of these cakes are technically challenging, but none quite as much as the wedding cake for one of the assistant decorators – emergency surgery is required. Elsewhere, Geof gets to do a repeat of a popular groom's cake.

Replicas make up this week's work. First the team must create a ship, then a famous gorilla, and last is a DJ's groom's cake. Everything still must be transferred, of course, and potholes may ruin a christening.

Duff has a special cake to make for a charity flag football event held by the Baltimore Fire Department, a theater group wants a fairy godfather, and Duff helps his father celebrate a milestone.

It's a week of complicated and artistic cakes that put Geof and Duff to the test with a cake interpretation of the Dance of the Veils, a renowned ski slope and a plane.

A cake for a tree lighting ceremony presided over by Duff guarantees fireworks; Geof gets to create a cake for one of his idols, a tennis star; and Duff creates a surprise for a party given by dear friends.

Duff and crew are experiencing their busiest week to date, with 40 cakes in the offing. A birthday party requires three cakes, Starbucks asks for a holiday-themed one, and just for a change they get to create a goth one as well.

A slow week with only seven cakes turns out to be more difficult than expected when the bakery seems to be cursed. Cakes include a difficult turtle, a hamburger and the Taj Mahal.

Lettered tiles and a cake of squares add up to a famous game replica for a mom.

Duff and his staff head for Miami to create the bakery's largest cake ever for the Super Bowl.

The bakery focuses on birthdays and doctors. A radiology company asks the team to create a CT scanner, complete with patient inside. It's also a time for reflection at Charm City Cakes as the staff reflects on moments from the past with a series of flashbacks and outtakes.
