Things are heating up in the “Spring Baking Championship” tent as the final four bakers face off in a high-stakes episode titled “The Road to the Finale.” This Monday, host Jesse Palmer presents the first challenge: a picture-perfect strawberry fraisier cake. This classic French dessert, known for its layers of sponge cake, mousseline cream, and fresh strawberries, will test the bakers’ technical skills and artistic flair. The reward for success? An automatic spot in the final bake.
For the bottom two bakers, the road to the finale takes a detour through a sudden-death bake-off. The challenge? To create a baked good that holds deep personal meaning. The stakes are high, with a $50,000 grand prize and bragging rights hanging in the balance. Judges Duff Goldman, Kardea Brown, and Nancy Fuller will have the final say as they determine which bakers will advance.
“Spring Baking Championship” airs this Monday, May 12 at 8:00 PM ET on Food Network.
