The competition heats up on Food Network’s Super Mega Cakes this Monday, June 23, 2025, at 9 PM ET. In the episode titled Best Meal Ever, cake titans Duff Goldman and Ashley Holt lead their respective teams into a challenge that combines artistry with a dash of culinary memory. The task is straightforward enough: create an edible masterpiece inspired by their “best meal ever.”
Of course, “straightforward” in the world of mega cakes means something a bit different. The teams must craft cakes with hyperrealistic food elements, pushing their skills to the extreme. Imagine a perfectly rendered pasta dish or a slice of steak made entirely of sugar and frosting. The challenge here isn’t just about making something look good; it’s about making it look like it could be on a dinner plate, not just a dessert stand.
Judges Amaury Guichon, Sherry Yard, and Jacques Torres will scrutinize every edible detail. The winning cake doesn’t just earn bragging rights; it comes with a $10,000 prize and eligibility for the season’s grand championship. This episode should deliver plenty of edible art and high-stakes drama, as each team tries to outdo the other with cakes that blur the line between savory and sweet.
