It's good when someone knowledgeable shares it.

I was in the medical field before I retired, and we had the same work ethic - You're not finished until you're finished.

Buddy, I’ve been watching your show since I was about 8. I’ve grown up now, and you’re the reason I love to bake and cook! Just watching the process of how you design your cakes (or in this case piping flowers) is incredibly fascinating and inspirational. Keep up the amazing work!

[JM-mckk]

You are my freaking hero. I started making cakes again after 15 years. Thanks for your inspiration.

Few people are as passionate as Buddy. What a guy 💕

[willgreen]

Literally! Exactly! That what a master is. You put in the work and hours cause you love it. You chose to do it. It really doesn’t suck to you and you would absolutely chose to do it again and again. You learn to master something through years and years. It’s not just a talent that you plop out effortlessly. It’s talent and skill. That skill is learned and practiced. And you love every minute of it. Yes you work 24+ hours in a row and you do days and days on the same thing, but you don’t care cause it’s your craft and your project. It has to be done. It is a mentality. It is just the reality of the matter. You don’t have any other choice and it doesn’t bother you.

For me you are the winner of the competition!!! Love you

Buddy thank you for all the inspiration. I am from Johannesburg South Africa. Ive been watching cake boss for years. Love it...love it... I work a full time job at day and run a home bakery at night. I cant wait to expand. I recently put up a campaign on gogetfunding to raise some monies for expanding my bakery Wackers Delight. But even if it dont succeed on there, I will keep going. Hard work still pays off I believe. Never give up on your passion. Thanks Buddy for all the inspiration.

Thank Buddy shearing ur knowledge with us ur a great guy and I respect u

[Fiveleafclover]

I like how you are unapologetic for being passionate. Respect.

Side note:

If Duff tries to gripe at you again, just tell him "You know that white chocolate is chocolate, right?" He will know what that means...He will know.

[christyalbertson]

I know it sounds strange, but thank you. Your love of cake decorating has ignited my desire to be a cake decorator. Self taught by watching your shows.

[ROGER]

I'll bet nobody could beat Buddy in arm wrestling!

[gaila]

Hey Buddy!! I love you and your shows. I went to see you in Ottawa when you came to the NAC.   I would love if you could come back for another presentation. I want to meet you. Oh yeah you should have won against Duff.

[ChristopherS]

It’s really awesome that Buddy has his own channel. He makes traditional, really beautiful and elegant looking cakes. What a hard working guy. All the best to this “cake wise guy”😉.

[Diana-qrod]

[VAlcookie]

You're such an inspiration; thank you for sharing your experience and thoughts about hard work. We all need to be reminded of how success is built.
I truly admire your work and your perseverance.
