Though surrounded by sweet treats all day, "Cake Boss" Buddy Valastro still manages to maintain a pretty clean bill of health. In fact, when the Italian-American celebrity baker and star of reality TV series Cake Boss went for a routine medical check-up recently, he was told his blood was "better than the nurse's".
The 40-year-old owner of Carlo's Bakery in New Jersey, who takes medication for high cholesterol just like other family members because the condition is "genetic", told The New Paper: "Apart from cholesterol, I am fine with sugar. No diabetes, thank God." The father of four was in town last week to promote the latest and ninth season of Cake Boss, which premieres on Nov 15 at 9pm on TLC (StarHub TV Ch 427 & Singtel TV Ch 254).
