ਕੀਵਰਡ Cake

Pairs of professional bakers compete to create spellbinding edible showpieces on the actual sets where the Harry Potter films were made.

Antique Bakery is a manga by Fumi Yoshinaga depicting the lives of four men who work in a small bakery. It was published in Japan by Shinshokan and in English by Digital Manga Publishing. The series won the 2002 Kodansha Manga Award for shōjo manga. The manga was adapted as a Japanese TV drama, with the title Antique or Antique Cake Store, that was broadcast on Fuji TV in 2001, an anime TV series, airing on July 3, 2008 on noitaminA, and a Korean live-action movie.

Host Matthew Lillard welcomes four teams of killer cake artists to an abandoned warehouse, where they will compete for $20,000 and the Golden Knife trophy. They will work with some of the best horror special effects artists in Hollywood to bring their cakes to life and scare the hell out of the show’s expert judges—Scream Queen Danielle Harris and food artist and Halloween aficionado Nikk Alcaraz.

You'll be wowed and downright impressed—and perhaps a bit hungry for dessert—when you see showstopping creations from some of the best cake artists across the country. In place of usual layered chocolate, vanilla and red velvet beauties, these showstopping features will include a massive 500-pound replica of Earth and an upside-down chandelier. They're changing the cake game once and for all, and on Ridiculous Cakes, you'll get an insider's look at how these masterpieces are designed, created and decorated.

Talented hobby confectioners, or even those who are already familiar with the tricks of baking, compare their knowledge: Master Confectioner candidates must create two confectionery masterpieces individually in each broadcast to advance. At the end of each race day, one of them will be eliminated, so at the end of the two semi-final weeks, three competitors will advance to the final week, where someone will also leave every day.
