"  Earlier this week, a couple was denied a wedding cake at an Oregon bakery because of their sexual orientation. Duff Goldman, cake maker extraordinaire and former star of Food Network&amp;#039;s Ace of Cakes, has something to say about it and an offer for the brides-to-be. According to Eater, Duff Goldman heard about the lesbian couple whose wedding cake request was rejected by religious bakery owner Aaron Klein. He then took to Twitter and posted, &amp;quot;Ill make that cake for free.&amp;quot; More From Delish: 25 Amazing Custom Wedding Cakes Goldman later participated in a video-conference interview with the Huffington Post, and he reiterated his offer to bake the cake for free.

The Oregon Equality Act of 2007 prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation. Klein has stated that his actions were based on his religious beliefs.
