We watched the episode with kids. The NASA inspired episode was so much fun to watch. I loved that our Jilly's cupcake chefs were so knowledgeable and that their cupcakes were so professionally made. Not to mention the extreme creativity. Way to go and we will be honoring our daughter's desire to have a cupcake wars inspired birthday party.
