Staten Island Cakes

Vinny's family plans a surprise 21st birthday party for him as he competes for the top prize in the Taste of Staten Island competition. He also learns the dangers of excess when, hungover, he is forced to make a beer-infused cake.

Vinny makes a wedding cake with some kick while a hot air balloon cake has trouble getting off the ground. Later, he tries to convince Kristin to let him bring her dog to a cake consultation at a jewelry store in Manhattan.

When he's forced to hire Kristin at the shop, Vinny tries to keep his composure. Unfortunately, between his sister's shenanigans and a tough Broadway client, things at the Cake Artist are a little out of control.

Vinny gets a taste of star power when a local magazine interviews him for an article and orders a cake for their launch party. Vinny is star struck, especially when he meets a Staten Island celebrity who is back after a stint on the Jersey shore.

Vinny must balance fear and fun to make a scary sweet sixteen cake and perform in the Staten Island Zoo's annual Halloween Spooktacular. Were it not for the 2,000 cupcakes he also agreed to make, this Halloween would be a piece of cake.

After Vinny has an argument with the girls, Cousin Joe asks renowned cake maker Ron Ben-Israel to give Vinny some advice about running the business. Meanwhile, Vinny creates a cake to benefit a rescue group devoted to his favorite animal: the horse.
