This week's Cake Boss episode starts with Buddy and Frankie walking down a street in Hoboken. The pair is heading to the original location of Carlo's Bakery before it moved to Washington St. in 1989. Turns out, its old next-door neighbor is home to one of the famed delis of the city: Fiore's. Buddy has been called over to make a cake for Fiore's 100th anniversary.

Buddy right there decides to make them a six-foot sandwich cake. It'll be a cake replica of a hero as tall as a man. How this can be wrong is beyond me. It's like putting two of my favorite things together and having the televised proof available to relive it as often I please. Also revealed in the first few minutes of this episode: how much Frankie loves his deli meat.

Subsequently, it's Easter season, which means that the bakery is very busy. Carlo's makes Zeppoles in honor of Saint Joseph. Zeppoles are twice deep fried cream puffs. And then filled with cream, dusted with sugar and decorated with a cherry. I sorta get it now. The Zeppoles kill you (how can something that was deep fried twice not have that kind of power?), and then you hope something is there to bring you back to life?

Following through from a previous episode where Mauro collapsed in the middle of the kitchen, it's been brought to the CB's attention that he still continues to struggle with his health but is trying to hide it. Buddy decides to get everyone together and speak to him about what's going on.

During Easter the bakery also unleashes the only savory thing it ever makes to the general populace of Hoboken: the cold-cut pie. It's like a quiche with ham, salami, pepperoni, a variety of cheeses and hard-boiled eggs. Anthony has been given the honor of learning how to make it. It's all part of the process of becoming a full-fledged baker at Carlo's.

Not only is Anthony learning how to make the cold-cut pie, he's also been granted access to the book. The book! Now, we've all seen plenty of movies where books containing classified information only lead to trouble. I predict the same to happen here. The book has every holiday recipe ever made by the bakery. Some of the recipes were actually written by Buddy's father himself. Everyday recipes are ingrained in the minds of the staff and do not need to be written down. 

At first, I couldn't take this book business seriously, because Buddy was being so incredibly creepy about it. Dude, it's a book of recipes. Let's calm it down, and just give it to Anthony so he can learn what he needs, and he can finally stop moping like he's auditioning for the next installment of Twilight. But then it dawned on me: this book contains cake secrets. Cake secrets. Secrets about cake. I would actually really like to get my hands on this book and treasure it with the same protective creepiness that until this episode I've only ever seen in Lord of the Rings movies.

We see the staff at work as they create the deli meats and cheeses for the sandwich cake. They're making them out of molding, and they look pretty cool and real. It's all about the details here at Carlo's after all.

But somehow the CB is not impressed so he and Frankie decide to compare the molding creations with the real things. Frankie calls cake and meat two different animals? Well, Frankie, they're not just different animals; they're different things all together. How did you expect them to be similar? But, per usual, the CB has yet another ingenious idea and decides to cut the molding meat and cheese with a slicer like they would in a real deli. Wow.

Danny presents the Zeppoles he's been working on, and people are not pleased with how they've turned out. They're looking a bit burned. Danny doesn't agree. The CB confirms that they are indeed burned, and that Danny needs to change the oil in the deep fryers or this will happen again. Lesson learned, Danny. Though I must say, I don't know how anything that was deep fried twice can end up not burning. But that's probably why I'm behind a computer and not inside a kitchen.

Buddy is looking for a new place. He wants to go bigger. A meeting with a realtor brings him somewhere in the suburbs of NJ looking at a huge empty building. Buddy jokes that he can bake for the entire country with facilities like that. His only problem is that it's too far from Hoboken. That's right, CB, do not leave Hoboken. It would be unfair to bring your celebrity elsewhere.

During his apprenticeship, Anthony learns how to cut cheese for the cold-cut pie. Under Joey's tutelage, Anthony will surely succeed. The mixture for this pie looks disgusting. This is why I don't have the desire to work in the food industry or cook for myself. I never want to see anything before it's edible.

The health session with Mauro has finally come. They want him to take care of himself and lose weight. Mauro tries to argue that he's fine, but eventually—as all of Buddy's verbal opponents do—gives in.

Anthony is very proud of making the cold-cut pie. Everyone loves it, but no one believes he made it. Everyone thinks either Joey or Sal was the baker responsible for that meaty, cheesy, eggy goodness. It does suck to occupy the bottom rung of a totem pole. You get all the work but none of the glory. One day Anthony, you might have your own show on TLC.

The Fiore's cake is done. After all the work, it does indeed look like a massive sandwich. The only problem is that the staff (mainly Buddy) keeps calling it san- weesch. There is really no reason to call things other than what they are. A sandwich is a sandwich. It does, however, look awesome. The most delicious fake sand-weesch I've ever seen. And surprises of surprises, Fiore's is going ga ga a ooh la la over the cake.

All in a day in the world of a Cake Boss.
