TORONTO, Aug. 18, 2025 /CNW/ - Things are about to get a whole lot sweeter this September! Corus Entertainment's brand-new original series Halloween Bakeshop (7x60) premieres Sunday, September 14 at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT on Flavour Network and streaming exclusively on STACKTV. Hosted by Canadian actress and comedian Lauren Ash, this frightfully fun baking showdown will see eight talented competitors face off in a high-stakes competition for a chance to taste sweet victory, taking home the title of Halloween Bakeshop champion and a $25,000 prize.
Week after week the stakes are raised, and the bakers must impress the judges or face elimination. The competition kicks off with a spine-chilling hayride to a haunted farm, where cursed crops grow and the barnyard animals bite back! Using seasonal ingredients, the bakers must craft desserts that capture the eeriness of the haunted countryside. In episode two, it's on to bewitching treats: from bubbling cauldron cakes to mystical flavored potions. Each baker must work their magic to charm the judges with their sinister, spellbinding bakes. The season continues to unfold with more deliciously wicked twists and shockingly sweet surprises each episode.
Lauren Ash is joined on the judging panel by celebrated Filipino-Canadian chef, restaurateur, and TV personality Jordan Andino, and James Beard-nominated chef, baking entrepreneur, and TV personality Kareem "Mr. Bake" Queeman.
The skilled contestants battling it out to see who takes the cake on Halloween Bakeshop include:
- Austin Granados - 31, Winnipeg, Man. (Cake-ology)
- Alessandro Caria - 41, Windermere, Fla. (Daisy Cakes Orlando)
- Lawrence Vourtzoumis - 30, Montreal, Que. (Patisserie Lawrence V)
