Holiday Gingerbread Showdown

Ultimate Holiday Celebration

Three bakers race to create their take on a gingerbread North Pole; the judges hand out some high praise and some cold critiques while trying to decide whose gingerbread masterpiece is good enough to give its creator a trip to the grand finale.

Santa's Most Incredible Workshop

Three bakers are challenged with creating a gingerbread scene inspired by the classic holiday movie "Elf"; host Marcela Valladolid throws a wrench in the works by challenging the bakers to create quick holiday treats for the judges to sample.

Bakers vie to create the definitive gingerbread showpiece; they receive a competition curveball mid-challenge that requires them to switch gears from assembling gingerbread to creating holiday treats to act as functional parts of their final pieces.

Naughty or Nice

Holiday bakers face off in an over-the-top seasonal showdown to make masterpieces out of gingerbread for the chance to earn $25,000.
