Plot Synopsis

DUFF TAKES THE CAKE is a half-hour reality series that follows Duff Goldman and his team of decorators, designers and builders, as they work around the clock to make epic, show-stopping cakes for milestone events and parties for their social media followers. The team is then challenged with delivering these extra-special creations to a variety of venues and locations both on time and intact. In the series opener, "Baked and Sealed," Duff and his team blow it out of the water with a wet-and-wild birthday cake for the Aquarium of the Pacific's one-year-old seal pup. Meanwhile, the pressure is on to make a flock of 21 bird-themed cakes for a deserving group of kids at the ultimate surprise birthday party.

Season 2 of DUFF TAKES THE CAKE premieres on Monday, June 8, 2020 at 10pm ET/PT on Food Network. In the season opener, "A Dino-Mite Bake!," Duff teams up with the nonprofit Magic Wheelchair to create a prehistoric Jurassic World-themed cake, complete with oozing lava and smoke, for two deserving kids and their families at Universal Studios. In subsequent episodes of the show's sophomore season, Duff and his team build a basketball-themed cake fit for the pros; create a hyperrealistic whale cake stable enough to present on a boat in the Pacific Ocean; engineer a robot cake for a Star Wars-themed robotics competition; prepare a sweet treat for a BBQ battle between the LA Fire and Police Departments; and more.
