Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking

Hosts James and Oliver Phelps welcome nine pairs of gifted professional pastry chefs and cake artists to Warner Bros. Leavesden Studios, home to the iconic sets of the Harry Potter films. For their first challenge, the bakers must create an edible showpiece that is at least 2 feet tall, includes at least one magical effect, and tells the story of their shared love of Harry Potter. Plus, each team member must make a tasting element that showcases their individual specialty. Expert culinary judges Carla Hall and Jozef Youssef decide which bakers will earn a ticket to board the Hogwarts Express train to the next challenge!

The remaining teams enter the breathtaking world of Gringotts Wizarding Bank to face off in three head-to-head battles. Hosts James and Oliver Phelps ask the bakers to create 3-foot showpieces inspired by the resplendent main hall, the network of tunnels and carts, and the underground vaults. The creations must also include at least one enchanting effect and two tasting elements, plus a surprise hidden treasure! Judges Carla Hall and Jozef Youssef are joined by Harry Potter alumnus Warwick Davis to decide the winner, and one team will be sent home.

In a salute to the famed Diagon Alley, hosts James and Oliver Phelps ask each team to create fifty identical handheld desserts, inspired by one of the many different shops, and feed them to a crowd of eager Harry Potter fans on the actual set. The bakers must present their desserts in a way that highlights an interactive, magical effect. The Potter fans will vote for a winner, while judges Carla Hall and Jozef Youssef decide which team must leave the competition.
