Hallmark cooks up a confection but this one has a soggy bottom.
Marco Poloni (Costas Mandylor) enters a baking competition called 'The Golden Whisk' hoping the prize money will help his Italian family owned bakery. His Uncle Fab is on the verge of bankruptcy.
Marco wants to team up talented pastry maker Grace Carpenter (Lauren Holly) who also likes to start her own business. The relationship between the two is frosty to begin with but Uncle Fab senses a spark of romance with the pair.
The competition is far from easy. They may be a talented and volatile pair but there are hazards along the way with shady contestants and judges with past issues.
There are some good actors in the mix such as Brenda Vaccaro and David Proval.
However this is a tepid film where the side characters are more interesting than the formulaic story.
