We wonder how long it took Paul Hollywood to say yes to a second series of this tasty travelogue?

We wonder how long it took Paul Hollywood to say yes to a second series of this tasty travelogue? It can't have been a difficult decision for a man as passionate about baking as he is.

Paul begins in the beautiful Sicilian city of Palermo, where he samples everything from arancini (deep-fried rice balls) made to a 1,000-year-old recipe to sfincione (Sicilian pizza) and cannoli pastries.

Paul also meets a 79-year-old marzipan master who creates exquisite hand-painted marzipan fruit that can take up to seven days to make.
