TLC has ordered a second season of Cake Boss. The show follows the antics inside a Hoboken, N.J. Italian bakery run by Buddy Valastro. The second season is expected to launch this fall as production has already begun on the new batch of shows. Cake Boss first launched on May 25, and has averaged 2.3 million viewers since its launch. The show has been helped by its lead-in, Jon & Kate Plus 8, particularly given the media frenzy surrounding episodes of that show earlier this summer. Cake Boss became the top-rated food show on cable by the end of July.
Cake Boss finishes up its first season on August 17. TLC will launch another cake-themed series, the competition Ultimate Cake Off, in the 10:00 PM/ET slot on Mondays starting August 31.
