The series, hosted by Brad Smith ("Eddsworld"), welcomes returning "Big Bake" champions and veterans, each looking to redeem themselves in this larger-than-life, "Hallow- een"-themed event. Food Network describes: "In each episode, three professional baking teams have five hours to design, bake and decorate a grand- scale cake creation based on a particular theme. These bakers need to think big and bold, blowing up their designs to gigantic propor- tions and thinking outside the (bakery) box." As "Big Bake" competi- tions take place through- out the year, this iteration celebrates the spookiest and scariest season of them all, tasking bakers with eye-popping and down- right dreary challenges that feature spooky Halloween treats, creepy clown cakes, fa-boo-lous shrieks, scares and costumes galore. So far this season, the teams have been asked to create cakes of the best "boo-ticians" in town, dec- orated with their creepy clientele, and then made their way to the carnival, where funhouse screams were on the menu as Smith asked the baking teams to create some spine-chilling desserts. But fear not. The scariest snacks are still to come. During this upcoming episode, Food Network promises that witches will be the "talk of the town," as a description for the challenge shares that "Brad Smith asks the baking teams to wave their mag- ic whisks to create cakes featuring the queens of Halloween." In the follow- ing weeks, the competition continues, as bakers serve some "big bog bakes" with swamp-themed cakes and later tackle their fears by making creations that fea- ture thrill-seeking monsters. As tension rises and suspense builds, bakers must do their best to im- press this season's judges – pastry chef Ron Ben-Is- rael ("Cake Wars"), corner- back-turned-chef Eddie Jack- son ("Outchef 'd") and in- ternet personality/cookbook author Danni Rose ("Dan- ni's Juke Joint Comfort Food Cookbook: Modern-Day Recipes, Ole Skool Flavas," releasing in November 2023) – and avoid elimination, making it to the end of the competition, where the most ambitious (and terrifying) baker will go home with a $10,000 prize.
