Cake Boss: Difference between revisions

* [[Genre Savvy]]: Anthony's pretty good at knowing when he's going to get pranked, like the time they tried to throw the cake in his face. Turns into [[Death By Genre Savviness]] in his birthday episode, where he still gets dumped on despite knowing exactly what's coming.

* [[Gratuitous Italian]]: Debatable -- in the opening credits, Buddy refers to the crew at Carlo's as ''"mia famiglia"''. But he's first-generation Italian-American, his father emigrated from Sicily.

* [[Idiot Ball]]: The usual cause of bakery disasters. Suppose you could have measured the delivery truck to make sure that cake would fit inside ''before'' making it?

* [[In Memoriam]]: Long-time baker Salvatore Picinich died of cancer in early 2011. The episode that aired the next day was dedicated to Sal. A later episode included Buddy speaking at Sal's memorial Mass.

* [[Up to Eleven]]: Some customers seem to be trying to raise the bar on what Buddy can do. (The tiki-cake guy was a regular customer, and admitted that he was doing this.)

* [[Vacation Episode]]: Three of them, covering a Valastro trip to Italy.
