November 06, 2022 16:24 - 1 hour - 85.9 MBIt’s the finale, y’all! And we are all cordially invited to doff our fanciest duds and visit Hotel Henson for some killer nuptials! In a finale designed to truly celebrate our bakers’ craft - no tricks or twists or sudden deaths - we are treated to the cheesiest, dreamiest snacking boards and the most dramatic, delectable black wedding cakes we’ve ever seen. The BEST way to cap a killer season, and the best way to make OUR journey to the thirteenth floor, where these four dum dums are taking...
Halloween Baking Championship (SE8:EP7)
October 28, 2022 15:40 - 1 hour - 82.7 MBHalloween Baking Championship opens this week’s episode with the most terrifying taunt yet: John Henson as into a 1920’s thirst trap bartender.... MEOW, fellow bakers. Me. OW. After creating boozy throwback death eclairs in the pre-heat, our bakers must face their worst fears whilst producing not one, not two, but THREE ENTREMETS IN TWO HOURS. What did we learn from this episode? A) Even terror sloths are adorable B) Zac is a killer baker, a drag queen AND a shark attack survivor C) Black...
Halloween Baking Championship (SE8:EP6)
October 22, 2022 17:03 - 1 hour - 94.9 MBIs that a shard of glass in your eye, or are you just watching the grossest Halloween Baking Championship season ever? Maybe both (and we’re into it)! HBC serves up a preheat full of jigglin’ eyeballs and heebie jeebies and then the bakers must twin out on identical cakes inspired by the creepy girls living in room 222. The scariest part? They all KILLED this challenge, which meant one beloved baker was sent to the 13th floor for the tiniest flaw. Join us this week for your fill of eye v...
Halloween Baking Championship (SE8:EP5)
October 14, 2022 15:02 - 1 hour - 108 MBMEAT CAKES??? How do you spell “full body vocal gross-out shudder”? Cause we did a LOT of that this episode, and we likey. Our bakers follow up some light arson in the preheat with quite possibly the grossest challenge (and CAKE: we’re lookin’ at you, Kristi) in Halloween baking history. We never would have expected a baking competition show to viscerally remind us that we are all quite literally made out of meat, but here we are. Top their incredible performances with the fact that Chris n...
Halloween Baking Championship (SE8:EP4)
October 08, 2022 17:06 - 1 hour - 101 MBMaggots, maggots, maggots! Halloween Baking Championship brings the noise and the funk this week in two heats designed to horrify our senses. In maybe the most disgusting thriller yet, the bakers were challenged to deliver us the most putrid, rotting dishes they could, using fermented ingredients and their grossest horror instincts. *insert hurl sound* We’ll be honest. The smashed dessert killer challenge was a little bit of a letdown after a thrilling pre-heat, but if it got John Henson to ...
Halloween Baking Championship (SE8:EP3)
September 30, 2022 20:27 - 1 hour - 83.8 MBNo Thriller. All Killer. And, TWO bakers take a trip to the 13th floor ALL in a one hour episode?? Food Network, what are you doing to us?! In this week's trip to Hotel Henson, our fearless bakers team up to create haunted maze cakes delicious enough to make anyone risk getting lost inside them.

Halloween Baking Championship (SE8:EP2)
September 23, 2022 14:52 - 1 hour - 108 MBIn a daring publicity stunt for his notorious hotel, John Henson announces a new pet-friendly policy with a celebrity appearance from Dreamworks’ Puss n’ Boots. In a challenge that makes as much sense as the cross-promotion, our beleaguered bakers must turn their Choux into shoes and try not to die doing it. Next, they must make that most famous cake none of us have ever heard of, the "soccer tour"*! These chocolate cakes surprisingly featured zero yellow cards or athletic legs but DID incl...

This place has everything: a creepy host, bleeding cakes, a rotting grandma, strawberry intestines... Need we go on? No, we need not. Hotel Henson sells itself. So unpack your bags, throw on yo...

A pre-heat that asks our beloved bakers to turn an upside-down cake on its head - wouldn't that be a regular cake? A main heat modern take on a traditional pie - a.k.a. "Jen's Dream Heat"?

Host Molly Yeh admits she's butchering Cajun French but letting the good times roll right into the kitchen as the bakers head down to the big easy for some Mardi Gras madness. Our bakers put the fat in Fat Tuesday with King cake inspired treats followed by a boozy parade float cake fit to carry a krewe of Beignets right into our judges' mouths. Is a beignet just a square donut? How much cinnamon is too much cinnamon? Why is there a plastic baby in my cake?...
