Molecular geneticist Kostas thought that owning a bakery would be a breeze, but four years in, the old-school bakery he bought is still losing almost $60,000 a year. Faced with limited baking skills, a failing love life and a staff he doesn't trust, Kostas thinks he has six months until he'll have to pull the plug on his dreams of a Greek bakery. He needs pastry chef Stephanie Boswell's help to sort out a simple solution for revamping his menu and bringing life back into his dingy storefront.

Bree Miller built her business on large, eye-popping cakes that demand big price tags from celebrity clients, but the one-offs aren't sustaining her day-to-day business. With an appointment-only retail space that costs nearly $15,000 a month in overhead, Bree needs pastry chef Stephanie Boswell's help to learn some new pastry skills and find new revenue streams for the morning breakfast crowd.

Olympic gold medalist Jeannette Bolden-Pickens is desperate to save 27th Street Bakery, which her family has owned for three generations. The Los Angeles bakery has been creating mouthwatering sweet potato pies for nearly 100 years, but changing demographics and a dismal retail space have kept the walk-in customers away. Pastry chef Stephanie Boswell needs to freshen up the menu and Jeannette's mindset if this bakery is going to survive.

In the premiere episode, Stephanie heads to Flint, MI to The Cookie Jar. Owner Teressa Morris has poured every penny she has into her bakery and is struggling to keep the lights on.

Stephanie teaches Teressa how to capitalize on her signature cookie to expand her menu and bring in new revenue streams. Stephanie restores more than just the bakery, as she instills confidence in Teressa to be a stronger leader.
