But despite the obstacles they face, the three women grow into confident businesswomen and remain extremely close as they build families and recover from their toxic childhood. After the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the sisters gather over chilled martinis to take a serious look at the future and decide they should be togetherin business. Bring on the cake. Liqueur-infused cake, that is. They soon start handing out samples of their inventions at farmers markets like seasoned carnival barkers, and soon a Food Network producer who's stopped by their table invites them to New York Citysparking a hilarious adventure involving one-way streets, security guards, and the NYPD, all in an effort to get their cake into the hands of the producers at The Food Network and Rachel Ray.

Carole Algier, Sue Katein, and Kathy Lanyon grew up in Collegeville, PA in a family of five girls, two boys, and two absent parents. Carole is an artist who enjoys gardening, gourmet cooking, and entertaining. Kathy is a no-nonsense, light-hearted mother of two whose strength is delegating with great organizational skills. Sue is a practical, sensitive mother of one who enjoys baking, writing, and entertaining. As partners, each of them brings something unique to the table: Sue, who has thirty-five years of experience in corporate small business operations development, is the creator of their business's cake recipes; Kathy, who has thirty-five years of corporate IT experience, is the technical advisor who keeps them in the twenty-first century; and Carole, who has forty years of experience in the food industry, utilizes her art background for marketing and branding. All three sisters have a great sense of humor and value family time with their husbands, children, grandchildren, and friends.
