He grew up in Hoboken, NJ in an old-fashioned Italian family and showed a flair for cake decorating at an early age. At the age of 17, his father died and the only son had to suddenly take on the responsibilities of the patriarch. Buddy thrived under pressure and with the help of his family, has taken Carlo's Bakery to new heights.
Today, Buddy oversees the day-to-day operations of the bakery. That entails managing over-the-top bridezillas, dealing with unreliable suppliers and late deliveries, addressing complaints of walk-in customers, drumming up new business, and keeping the peace in his family while executing hundreds of elegant cakes. Buddy has a big personality and an even bigger heart. He is the glue that keeps the family together.
