Characters
The show's cast includes Duff Goldman, who plays himself as the pastry chef in charge of Bakersville. His sous-chef is Couscous, a robot assembled from kitchen tools and voiced by Donna Kimball and Kristin Charney. Dizzy, performed by Dorien Davies, is an industrial stand mixer shaped like an elephant, always poking her mixing nose into things. A dragon-shaped oven called Dragon Oven communicates only through roars, smoke, and hiccups. Edgar, played by Kenny Stevenson, is a grumpy blue crab from Chesapeake Bay. The wise brown three-toed sloth S'Later is performed by Victor Yerrid and Amanda Maddock. Amanda Maddock also performs Proof Box, a time-traveling box that takes Duff to different eras to explore food history. Geof, portrayed by Geof Manthorne, is a grocer who sings about each day's ingredient. Finally, two aliens performed by Donna Kimball and Kristin Charney threaten to destroy Earth unless Duff feeds them; these characters are recycled versions of the Koozebanians from CityKids.
