Sal Picinich, a 63 year old baker at Carlo's Bakery in Hoboken, NJ, has passed away after a battle with cancer. He worked at the bakery for 45 years and appeared on the hit show Cake Boss filmed there. He left the show in 2009 to deal with his illness, but returned this summer to accept an employee of the century award as the bakery celebrated it's 100th anniversary. He is survived by a wife and two sons.
My condolences go out not just to his immediate family, but to those at the bakery too. This is the one reality show that really, really seems like a family to me. More so than even those about families. Hope they honor him with a great dessert to carry on his name.
