Description

Debra Jo Rupp (That '70s Show) stars as Della, a North Carolina baker riding high on her success and recent casting on a reality show when her late best friend’s daughter arrives requesting a wedding cake. Initially thrilled with the job, she is immediately conflicted when she realizes the bride is marrying a woman. Della must confront her own prejudices to decide whether to go through with the cake.
