A group of talented bakers are tasked with creating tasty and imaginative holiday showpieces that exemplify what Easter is all about.
Host Sunny Anderson welcomes eight Easter-obsessed bakers to the kitchen, and in the tasting round, they must put their best rabbit's foot forward to serve up a fantasy Easter dessert featuring the ultimate Easter ingredient -- chocolate! Then, the bakers hope they're having a good "hare" day when they have to imagine themselves as giant Easter Bunnies made out of cake. Judges Jordan Andino and Stephanie Boswell decide who goes home and who moves on for their shot at winning the Golden Easter Egg filled with $25,000.
The Easter bunny has a sweet tooth -- two big ones, actually! -- so host Sunny Anderson challenges the seven remaining bakers to create dessert pizzas inspired by crave-worthy cookies. Then, they send judges Jordan Andino and Stephanie Boswell on an Easter egg hunt with their edible garden cakes that any bunny would love to call home.
The Easter Bunny is "eggs-hausted" from filling all those baskets, so host Sunny Anderson asks the six remaining bakers to wake him up with delicious Easter doughnuts infused with a shot of caffeine. And if that doesn't pack enough of a punch, they create Easter-inspired piñata cakes filled with homemade treats for judges Jordan Andino and Stephanie Boswell.
Host Sunny Anderson pulls the ultimate "yoke" on the five remaining bakers when she asks them to make edible bird's nest desserts filled with delicious Easter eggs. Then, judges Jordan Andino and Stephanie Boswell decide who reigns supreme on the runway when the competitors bake and model edible, Easter-themed sashes and crowns.
It's the semi-finals, and host Sunny Anderson challenges the four remaining bakers to take on one of the biggest trends in food: the over-the-top charcuterie board! But instead of being filled with meats, their dessert boards must be filled with Easter treats! Then, the competitors fight for a seat at the Easter dinner table and try to fool the judges with hyper-realistic Easter dinner cakes that look exactly like classic Easter dinner dishes. The bakers that fool judges Jordan Andino and Stephanie Boswell get to move on to compete in the finale.
In the finale, host Sunny Anderson asks the three bakers to take on the ultimate challenge: a 4-foot-tall edible Easter basket filled with over-the-top desserts and the ultimate Easter cake. They're literally putting all their eggs in one basket as judges Jordan Andino and Stephanie Boswell decide which baker is named the Easter Champion and walks away with the Golden Egg filled with $25,000!
