In this delectable story of love and confection, two warring pastry chefs discover a common passion - and the perfect recipe for romance and success. Lauren Holly, Costas Mandylor, and Brenda Vaccaro star. Former PICKET FENCES costars Lauren Holly and Costas Mandylor reunite for Hallmark's made-for-TV romantic comedy JUST DESSERTS. Marco (Mandylor) is an Italian-American baker who discovers that his uncle plans on selling the family's small Bronx bakery to a chain of donut shops. Hoping to save the business, Marco samples an incredible chocolate cake at a swanky Manhattan restaurant and convinces the fiery but beautiful pastry chef Grace (Holly) to enter her recipe in a prestigious baking competition worth $250,000. But the pair's strictly professional relationship is soon put to the test by Marco's growing attraction to Grace and the machinations of a rival chef bent on winning the contest at any cost. A frothy confection of food, comedy, and romance, this charming rom-com features cameo appearances by foodie icons like celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck.

Just Desserts Movie Review Average Rating: (3.5 out of 5 stars)   fun
Although this was a made for TV movie, I enjoyed it so much, I tracked it down to own. Watching these two characters try not to like each other "that way," protesting that "It's just desserts," is a fun time. The character of Marco Polo, an endearing, yet hot tempered, Italian baker, is played to perfection by Costas Mandylor; as is Loren Holly's portrayal of the uptight, stressed, pastry chef he bakes with, and then woos. In the words of Uncle Fab, "l'amore verità ha sapore verità." (true love has true flavor)

 Baking Competition Romance
A story of two bakers from different backgrounds who team up in a dessert baking competition. The interesting thing about this movie is the unique subject of pastry baking and what is involved in a competition. It is a typical made for tv romance movie, but the added twist of the unusual location and subject make it interesting and fun to watch.
