Whoops! Network accidentally releases word of ‘Cake Boss’ spinoff

HOBOKEN AND BEYOND — According to Reality TV World, a draft of a proposed series idea accidentally got leaked, but there are no immediate plans for something called “Cake Boss College.”
According to Reality TV World, “TLC apparently won’t be airing a reality competition series in which aspiring cake-makers compete to win a job at the Hoboken, NJ bakery run by Cake Boss star Buddy Valastro after all. Or at least not yet. The series — which the network had dubbed Cake Boss College and included in a Thursday press release in which it announced plans to air 47 new and returning series as part of its 2010-2011 programming slate — does not actually exist. “We drafted a possible show for development, and it was accidentally included [in the press release],” said TLC.
The third seasons of the regular Hoboken-based series will premiere in May.
No wonder Carlo’s Bakery had a “help wanted” sign in the window recently! (It really did!)
