I was very impressed by this little film :) The tension between the main characters was exceptionally well written and acted. Creative and melting, this movie is quite a treat :)
An Italian-American baker named Marco (Costas Mandylor) with a beautiful pastry chef Grace (Lauren Holly) to enter her recipe in a prestigious baking competition worth $250,000 to grow attention to Grace.
She can't act. He can, but barely. Many a corny line and lots of nothing happening. Tension through the competition, tension in the relationships, none of it comes across.
Thought this was a "real movie" but it's just a stupid Hallmark creation. Has "chick flick" all over it. Don't bother unless you're into stuff like Bocuse D'Or or the pastry competitions and have nothing better to do.

This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Just Desserts" !
