## Synopsis

**Teletoon**: *Pinkie Pie challenges her brother Octavio in a cupcake face-off.*

## Plot

At Sugarcube Café, Pinkie Pie has come up with a new baking recipe that combines doughnuts, cupcakes, and lollipops together called the "dough-cup-pop". Meanwhile, Sugar Packet Place, the bakery on the other side of town, has recently come under new management and is giving sweets away for free. The new owner is revealed to be Pinkie's estranged brother Octavio Pie, with whom Pinkie has had a fierce baking rivalry since childhood. The two rekindle their rivalry with a competition to determine who is the superior baker.

As part of their competition, Octavio invents his own version of the dough-cup-pop called the loll-up-nut, and Pinkie accuses him of copying her. When the competition gets underway, Pinkie and Octavio each try to one-up the other with treat giveaways and promotional deals. After the competition, Pinkie steals Octavio's loll-up-nuts to try and disrupt his business, but Octavio catches her and reveals he already stole her dough-cup-pops, resulting in a heated argument.

Applejack, Twilight Sparkle, Lloyd and Cole break up their arguing and explain that Octavio only copies Pinkie's recipes because he admires her. Octavio finally admits that he is envious of Pinkie's baking ability and has wanted to be just like her since they were little. He apologizes for stealing her dough-cup-pop recipe, and Pinkie apologizes for getting carried away with their rivalry. The two Pie siblings make amends and decide to open a side business together, selling both of their recipes.
