Gigi Hadid has a new job: summer intern at Carlo's Bakery. The 26-year-old supermodel clocked in for work at the famous New Jersey bakery to learn some frosting techniques from the Cake Boss himself, Buddy Valastro, as part of her new Harper's Bazaar cover story. A long time fan of the King of confections, Gigi endearingly lost her cool and was the ultimate fan-girl, calling the gig a 'dream come true.' Delicious: Gigi Hadid clocked in for work at Carlo's Bakery to learn some frosting techniques from the Cake Boss himself, Buddy Valastro, as part of her new Harper's Bazaar cover story 'I have been waiting for [what feels like] my whole life for my first day at @carlosbakery,' Gigi penned on social media. The model and the baker filmed a 12 minute Instagram video for Harper's where they decorated two blank canvas cakes with a variety of piping and frosting techniques that Buddy taught along the way. Buddy seems to be bouncing back nicely from a terrifying freak accident that severely injured his hand in 2020 and almost derailed his career. He was able to expertly teach Gigi how to pipe, frost and paint a variety of edible flowers that were used to adorn each of their small white cakes. What an honor! A long time fan of the King of confections, Gigi endearingly lost her cool and was the ultimate fan-girl, calling the gig a 'dream come true' 'I have been waiting for [what feels like] my whole life for my first day at @carlosbakery,' Gigi penned on social media. Cake decorating, Buddy explained, is more of a 'creative art' versus baking the cakes themselves which he said is a bit more like science 'When I found out you were a fan, I was honored,' Buddy said. Gigi is a big lover of Buddy and his long-running TLC show Cake Boss. She's also a foodie who loves cooking, baking and entertaining at home so took to the confectionary challenge like a duck to water. The catwalker revealed that she often sits online and watches frosting videos on Instagram which she finds 'very soothing.'

Gigi is a big lover of Buddy and his long-running TLC show Cake Boss. She's also a foodie who loves cooking, baking and entertaining at home so took to the confectionary challenge like a duck to water 'When I found out you were a fan, I was honored,' Buddy said. 'Listen, you tell me what you wanna learn and I'll teach you,' Buddy told the beauty. 'I wanna learn everything!' exclaimed Gigi. First, Buddy taught Gigi two different techniques for piping out frosting flowers. 'Oh my god, they're terrible,' Gigi said when she tried it out herself. 'That looks pretty good, Gi,' Buddy encouraged. 'Thank you, Bud,' the model responded. During the video Hadid opened up about what baking means to her and told an emotional story about baking her Oma (grandmom) a scratch made carrot cake for her last birthday before passing away. Hadid decorated the meaningful cake with daisies and her Oma told her it was the best cake she'd ever eaten. 'Listen, you tell me what you wanna learn and I'll teach you,' Buddy told the beauty.

The complicated cream filled flakey pastry, similar to the Italian sfogliatelle, is not only a top seller at Carlo's but it is what Buddy said he would have if he was 'going to the electric chair.' At the end of the video, Gigi managed to create a stunning floral cake that didn't look remotely amateur, even next to Buddy's. 'I recently had the pleasure of spending some time in the kitchen with @gigihadid The August cover star of @harpersbazaarus To go over some cake decorating techniques,' Buddy wrote of the experience on social media.

Adding: 'Gigi really wins over my heart telling me about all of her favorite #CakeBoss moments!' It's been a long road of recovery for Buddy who has been rehabilitating his right hand following a horrific incident last year. In September of 2020, the 43-year-old celebrity baker impaled his right hand in a freak accident with the pin mechanism of his at-home bowling alley machine and suffered severe tendon and nerve damage. A one-and-a-half inch metal rod pierced his hand three times between his ring finger and middle finger. His sons Buddy Jr. and Marco had to use a saw to free their father from the machine and he was hospitalized for treatment, undergoing multiple surgeries. By April he had told Rachael Ray that he'd regained about 75% usage of his right hand again and Buddy appeared to have no issues while working with Gigi.
