‘Is It Cake? Valentines’: Get to Know the Three Baking Couples

It’s time to head back to Netflix’s Is It Cake? kitchen, but it looks a little different than past seasons. Not only is it decked out in pink, flowers, and hearts galore, but for the first time ever, baking couples will try to fool us with their uber-realistic desserts. In honor of Valentine’s Day, their love is on display right alongside their swoonworthy cakes. It seems that couples who bake together stay together.

In the new episodes, which also feature married couple Ashlee Simpson and Evan Ross as guest judges, the dynamic duos are mostly focused on the competition instead of sharing their love stories, so we found ourselves wanting a little more insight into their off-screen relationship history. Swooon has done a deep dive into the Is It Cake? Valentines couples — Kimberly and Taurus, Jason and Tyler, and Alex and Amanda — so you don’t have to. Find out how they met, check out their off-screen cake businesses, and more below. (Don’t worry, we won’t spoil who won!)
