一個關於競爭、友誼、心碎與甜點的美味故事!渴望名聲的傑克與因喪母而憂鬱的吉莉安,這對格格不入的搭檔被選中參加一場獎金高達15萬美元、充滿搞笑混亂的高風險烘焙比賽。

十一歲的傑克·費曼充滿搖滾樂般的狂放態度,夢想成為史上最偉大的糕點師傅。他的計畫卻在六年級的派對上被打亂——他做的奶油糖羅勒布朗尼,竟被新轉學生吉莉安·梅爾梅斯坦帶來的一盤簡單巧克力 rugelach 搶盡風采。吉莉安的母親剛過世,她只想一個人靜一靜。

這兩位新銳烘焙師的人生因被選為隊友、參加全國電視轉播的比賽而交織在一起。對傑克來說,這是邁向廚藝巔峰的機會;對吉莉安而言,則是贏得15萬美元獎金、幫助父親的契機。

為了迎戰市內其他中學的對手,傑克和吉莉安努力尋找合作的最佳配方。過程中,他們烤出全世界最誘人的燕麥脆餅乾、與穿著棋盤格褲的傑克哥哥爭奪迷你高爾夫霸主地位,並發現了兩人被選中參賽背後令人困擾的原因。
