One of the centerpiece shows of the TLC network, a fifth season of “Cake Boss” began airing on Memorial Day. Viewers continue to celebrate the mouthwatering desserts and not-to-be-missed Valastro family moments occurring in bustling Hoboken, NJ, home of Carlo’s Bakery, which celebrates its 102nd anniversary this summer. In addition, Buddy’s second TV series on TLC “Next Great Baker” launches a new season on November 26th.

In late 2011, Buddy’s released his second book with Simon & Schuster. In “Baking with the Cake Boss: 100 of Buddy’s Best Recipes and Decorating Secrets,” Buddy shares everything a home cook needs to know about baking as he takes readers through the same progressive training he had in his apprenticeship at Carlo’s Bakery. A new book is set for release in November 2012 (details forthcoming).
