Jim Ford was originally contacted in October 2018 by Sugar Rush casting after seeing his Facebook page, Jimmy’s Sweets, LLC. When he found out that it was a team competition,he called Katlin Pfropper to ask her to be his partner. Katlin, a St. Clair High School graduate, joined Jim who’s originally from Flint, to submit a long application with photos of their work, a couple of phone interviews and Skype sessions later to find out they had been selected. The two recorded in Hollywood back in February and now it’s almost ready for showtime. According to Pfropper, when people watch the show, they can expect a very fast paced, Christmas themed competition with a look at a lot of fun creations. Along with Jim and Katlin frantically running about, it should be pretty fun to watch. The show consists of three rounds and four teams. After each round is completed a team gets eliminated with a winner taking home $10,000. Because of the kickoff with the show and past experience, Katlin has recently started a business called “Pfrosted” that combines her cake and ice carving skills. You can catch Kaitlin and Jim on Sugar Rush when it airs on Netflix November 29.
