One year ago The Cake Boss' star Buddy Valastro had a freak accident in his home bowling alley that left him questioning if he would ever be able to decorate cakes ever again. Today, Buddy Valastro's hand is working almost as good as new after the injury, according to Buddy during an interview with Rachael Ray on the Rachael Ray Show.

Buddy Valastro Shares Hand Injury is 'About 95%' Healed
"I say we're about 95% [healed] — which if that's as good as it's going to get, Rachael, I'll take it,"
The hand injury stemmed from a bowling accident last year. He injured himself after the bowling pinsetter malfunctioned and while fixing the issue his hand got stuck in the machine and a metal rod impaled his right hand three times between his ring finger and middle finger.
His wife Lisa Valastro and their four children (Sofia, 17, Buddy Jr., 16, Marco, 13, and Carlo, 10) all stepped up to help Buddy after the terrible accident. In one scene of TLC's special, Buddy Valastro: Road to Recovery, Buddy and his family are sitting around the dining room table as he tries to decorate a cake with his non-dominant hand. The reality tv star shows the struggles he must face as he uses his hands for work every single day.
