The Cupcake Girls

- Season 1

(2010)

With busy personal lives and a bustling cupcake empire, best friends Heather and Lori have got a tentative hold on a balance between their business and private lives. But when Brian, Heather's father and the Cupcakes' deliveryman, is unable to make some crucial wedding deliveries and Kathie, Heather's mom, works to keep the peace.

After a number of employees fail to show up for work, Heather and Lori decide to take over hiring from their managers in hopes of finding more reliable staff but when the process becomes harder than they thought and the staffing crisis increases, Heather and Lori are forced to work the front counter together as they discover that the world of hiring is a lot more difficult than it used to be.

Heather and Lori fly back to their hometown of Victoria to scout possible locations for their latest franchise. When the location of their dreams turns out to be more than they can afford, they are forced to decide whether the risk of going into major debt is worth it.

Determined to make their cupcakes even tastier, Heather and Lori hire Cheryl, a quality control manager, in the hopes that her passion for quality baked goods will breed enthusiasm amongst their staff. But the girls' good intentions come crashing down when Cheryl's drill sergeant manner gives way to 4 AM wake up calls, grueling baking 'boot camp' and very disgruntled employees.
