Four entrepreneurial bakers battle it out with innovative spins on muffins, cupcakes, doughnuts and bagels to win the ultimate prize. It all comes down to two signature dishes that are groundbreaking hybrids, leaving Buddy Valastro to decide between a more marketable mashup and something that's literally outside of the box.

Bakery owners come to Carlo's Bakery to show Buddy Valastro their signature dishes including a Chocolate-Cinnamon-Pecan Roll, Salty Sweet Pretzel Bark, a Fancy Almond Cake and a Savory Meat Pie. The difficult obstacles lead to the nail-biting final moments of the competition where one baker is forced to change their recipe on the fly and another has a full-on machine meltdown. In the end, Buddy and his advisors are left with making the difficult decision of whose signature dish was best.
