Duff Goldman shares what it’s like parenting a creative four-year-old who recently requested a brain cake—complete with eyeballs—for her birthday. The baker discusses his daughter’s intense focus and how it mirrors his own tunnel-vision approach to baking and woodworking. He dishes on the inspiration he draws from the baking competitions he hosts and how they help him stay on top of evolving pastry trends. Duff shares behind-the-scenes stories from his new show Super Mega Cakes, where he takes on six elaborate cake builds at once with a limited team. The baker discusses the intense physical and creative challenges of making cakes with moving parts, holograms, and surprising interactive features. He dishes on how his woodworking skills—honed through cake construction—led to his new Etsy shop and passion for toy-making. Duff shares plans for hand-crafted rolling pins and reflects on his lifelong evolution from graffiti artist to cake decorator to woodworker.
