Fantasy Baking Championship

Like all good killers, three 2021 Halloween Baking Finalists Adina Schaefer-Morgan, Guillermo Salinas and Megan Baker have popped up when you least expect them!  Join us as we dissect the bloody guts of the Halloween Baking Championship process, see what haunted memories remain from Camp Devils Food Lake and get a gentle reminder of just how delightfully hilarious these three finalists (and friends!) truly are!

And we're back!  The groundhog saw his shadow this year, but no one tell Food Network because spring has sprung in the kitchen, and we are HERE FOR IT.  Spring Baking Championship welcomes a new host (Hi, Molly!) and twelve new bakers to the kitchen, challenging them to present a fruity self-portrait tart (how? what? here comes the spring chaos!), and following up with a floral bonanza cake that ain't yo mama's Publix bakery birthday cake, no sir.  

There'll be critters!  And ribbons! And enough flowers to make you almost believe it's spring! Put on your stretchy pants and join us as we break down our favorite dishes and begin our spring fling with these delightful culinary craftspeople!

Ho Ho Ho, Bakers of the World!  After 8 weeks of holiday cheer, four of our beloved bakers have reached the final episode and we went LIVE on Monday night to celebrate!  Join us as we delight in these four charcuties (yeah, you heard us), stress eat over the Christmas piñata of Sudden Death, get heated on the "wrapped vs. unwrapped" candy cane debate, and raise a glass to what has to be one of the most talented groups of bakers collectively to reach the finals!

Happy Holidays to all and, to all, a good night!

Bakers of the world, we found another present hiding under the tree just for you...an interview with Holiday Baking Championship finalists Sabrina Coombs and Jose Marchán!  We get the inside scoop on their journey to HBC, their approach to ensuring all the judges were happy with their bakes AND their secret motivation to keep pushing through (SPOILER: It was Dollywood)!  We're serving up the perfect appetizer for tonight's finale so, pull up a chair, grab a fork and let's DIG IN!

Bakers of the world, we've already reached the PENULTIMATE episode of this season of Holiday Baking Championship!  In this episode, sweet potatoes and spice take the stage in a Kwanzaa inspired pre-heat and our bakers send along some holiday cheer in a main heat featuring *checks notes* rectangular family card cakes (what?!).  Join us as we ask age old questions like, "What is mace?" and "Can you eat mashed potatoes with chopsticks?" and, of course, find out which of our beloved bakers are taking a sleigh ride into next week's finale!  

Get ready for a visit from the ghost of desserts past as Holiday Baking Championship takes us back to a time when jello was hot and folks preferred their Alaska baked.  Are there actually grasshoppers in a grasshopper pie?  Can Adam make us believe Ambrosia is indeed the food of the Gods? How adorable is Marilyn? Join us for these questions and more, as your hosts careen through this episode on the rickety bobsled that is Winter 2021!

Bakers of the world, do we have an early Christmas present for you... Team Kim is IN THE HOUSE as bakers Adam Monette and Jody O’Sullivan from this season of Holiday Baking Championship join us for an intimate tete a tete about all things HBC!  The guys spill the tea on how they got on the show, who's the easygoing-est baker (spoiler alert, it's Marilyn DUH), and what it's like for your greatest baking failure to be captured ON CAMERA!  So, pull up a chair, grab a slice of fruit cake (the GOOD kind) and let's dig in!

It’s the Festival of Lights, y’all!  In celebration of the 8 crazy nights, our beloved bakers must make delish olive oil cakes that delight and compete for the last remaining immunity, which TEAM KIM TAKES AGAIN BECAUSE SHE IS UNSTOPPAB---J.T. here.  Kim will not be writing the rest of this description.  ANYWHO!  In the main heat, bakers must upcycle a dud of a holiday dish and make it something delectable.  How do you make a fruitcake good?  Is banana pudding a holiday dessert?  Who DOESN'T love a crème brûlée? Grab a cup of boozy nog and join us as we chew over these questions and more!

There is nary a supply chain issue to be found in the Holiday Baking Championship kitchen as our bakers tackle a Black Friday inspired pre-heat!  And then, it's a cornucopia of gluten in the main heat for a bread lover's fever dream of a team challenge.  Pull up a chair as we all give thanks for this bountiful feast, marvel at the wondrous yeasty creations before us and ask the all important question...is a butter churner actually a gadget?  Gobble, gobble, ya'll and Happy Thanksgiving!
