Dessert Imposters

Stuffed Puffs
The kid bakers are hard at work creating the dough and delicious fillings for their stuffed puffs, when Duff and Valerie announce a savory twist.
Celebration Cake
The four remaining kid bakers are tasked with a massive challenge for the finale: create a celebration cake for the moment they win, along with baked party gifts that complement their cake in flavor and design.

Pie a La Mode
For kickoff to the Kids Baking Championship, get ready to eat pies! For their first challenge, Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman ask the 10 best kid bakers in the country to elevate classic pies to an art form, but what's pie without homemade ice cream?
'Hot' Chocolate
Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman turn up the heat and ask the remaining eight bakers to incorporate chilies, peppers, cayenne and more into their chocolate creations. The kid bakers must balance the heat in their sweets, so that they showcase the flavor without overwhelming the judges' taste buds.
Lunch Box Desserts
The six remaining kid bakers get creative as they invent lunch box desserts. The good news? Trading items is allowed. The bad news? Carrot sticks are tough to work into a dessert!
Candymonium
To celebrate candy in all its glory, the five remaining kid bakers must use three types of candy in a dessert but also keep it balanced, because it's a fine line between candymonium and candy overload!
Dessert Imposters 2.0
The most beloved challenge from the first season of Kids Baking Championship is back with a twist. For dessert imposters 2.0, the four remaining kid bakers must make a dessert item that looks like a savory dish and also create a savory cupcake for "dessert." It's dinner in reverse!
Spring Break Cakes
In the final challenge, the three remaining kid bakers battle it out for the title of Kids Baking Champion while making spring break-themed cakes. Which baker will emerge the winner and take home $25,000?
