New Food Network Series to Feature Buddy Valastro & Duff Goldman

Buddy Valastro (Cake Boss) and Duff Goldman (Ace of Cakes) face off in a baking battle in the new Food Network series Buddy vs. Duff, which launches March 10.

The six-week competition will challenge every aspect of what it means to be a pastry artist and cake master. The elite bakers will go head to head in two rounds in each episode—a Bake-Off to test their baking abilities, followed by a Cake-Off to showcase their creative imaginations and decorating expertise. In the end, one will be named the undisputed king of cake.

“Audiences have come to recognize Buddy and Duff as the biggest names in cake, known for creating larger-than-life, jaw-dropping delectable designs as well as massive baking empires,” said Courtney White, president of Food Network. “Never before have these two baking icons gone head-to-head in a competition, until now.”
