Each week, Candice will take viewers through the ins-and-outs of her signature makeovers while exploring a key design principle in each episode.

    “Well, The Cupcake Girls is far from ordinary TV. The show, a Gemini-winner last week, is seen in 63 countries and has a fanatical following. Mostly, you see, it’s not about the cupcakes. The stars don’t cook. It’s about the people running the business and The Cupcake Girls has more drama and emotion than most soap operas on TV.” Read more.
