Spring Baking Championship
Spring means it's time to get fruity, so for the preheat challenge, eight of America's best bakers undertake a shortcake makeover using any fruit but berries. To stay in the competition, the bakers will have to create berry naked cakes.
The remaining bakers take on outdoor activities with a pre-heat ballpark snack dessert made from classic ballpark treats like popcorn and soft pretzels; the bakers attempt to create barbecue imposter desserts.
In the pre-heat, the six remaining bakers must make yummy dippers and create a sweet fondue; for the main heat, bakers must produce glorious rainbow desserts to stay in the game.
The five remaining bakers are tasked with transforming farm-fresh vegetables into delectable desserts; in the main-heat, the bakers pay homage to a traditional farmhouse breakfast with bacon and egg-themed confections.
In the pre-heat, the four remaining bakers take inspiration from typical Mother's Day gifts for their stunning desserts. Then the bakers take on chocolate, the most appreciated Mother's Day gift of all.
The three remaining bakers create an array of snacks for the welcome baskets for a destination wedding; in the final main-heat, they must bake a wedding cake inspired by popular wedding destinations Mexico, Hawaii, and Italy.
