Trivia / Ace of Cakes

Go To

  • Cancellation: A loose example, as the tenth season (January 2011) was the last for AoC as a series by mutual agreement between Food Network and Charm City Cakes. This was a result of the bakery being split into two separate locations: the original location in Baltimore, Maryland and their newest location all the way over in Los Angeles, California.
  • The Cast Showoff:
    • In addition to being an exceptional chef (and not just when it comes to being a pastry chef), Duff reveals in one episode (I assume the one where the bakery was making an equestrian themed cake) that he used to be competitive horseback rider ("equestrian" basically meaning "horseback riding" and anything related to it). He and Elena are also both in rock bands and are very talented musicians.
    • Geof seems to be the veritable fountain of this trope, as he seems to uncover something unexpectedly brilliant in just about every episode, ranging from songwriting to paintball to tennis.
  • Dueling Works: With TLC's Cake Boss, another show about bakers decorating cakes.
  • Milestone Celebration: A bunch, including:
    • The 100th episodes of King of the Hill and Lost
    • The 50th anniversary of Alaskan statehood
    • Anniversary cakes for Macy's, Ocean Spray, and Milk Bone
    • Several movie premieres, notably two Harry Potter movies
    • And their own 100th episode, of course.
    • The wrap party of the reunion tour of storied indie rock band Pavement
    • The final episode featured the 25th anniversary of Back to the Future.
