Kids Baking Championship - Season 13

Season 13
Amazing Animals
Hosts and judges, Duff Goldman and Kardea Brown, welcome a new field of talented kid bakers to the kitchen for challenges inspired by creatures big and small, including a few fluffy, furry and feathery friends who drop in to the kitchen for live appearances over the course of the season. From sea creatures to jungle dwellers to farm animals and more, the twelve kid bakers must craft creative and delicious animal-themed treats for a chance at winning the grand prize.

Episodes

Scales, Feathers, Fur and Fins
There's a gorgeous parrot and loveable cockatoo in the kitchen, because this season is all about animals! For the kickoff challenge, hosts and judges Duff Goldman and Kardea Brown ask the 12 bakers to create an animal texture tart decorated with creature-inspired features like scales, feathers, fur or fins. Then, for a twist, the kitchen whiz kids must add an edible version of their animal's tail to their dessert.

Macaronimals
Hosts and judges Duff Goldman and Kardea Brown have noticed that a particular dessert can be easily shaped into animals like a turtle, a panda or a frog ... but the dessert itself can be tricky. So, for the macaron animals challenge, Duff shows the kid bakers how to create a silky smooth macaron batter before baking time starts. Then, since the animal macarons need a place to rest, the bakers must give their animals an edible habitat to hang out in.

Doggone Good
Dog Man is half police officer and half dog, and the animated movie "Dog Man" is all about him. So, for this challenge, hosts and judges Duff Goldman and Kardea Brown pair up the 10 bakers to create two-tiered Dog Man cakes! One team member creates a dog head for the top tier, and their teammate makes the human bottom tier of the cake. For a twist, the bakers must incorporate an ingredient that all dogs (and humans) love -- bacon!

Sea Creature Sweets
This week, we're setting sail with Disney Cruise Line to visit Disney Lookout Cay, where the native sea creatures are so beautiful and inspiring that Duff Goldman and Kardea Brown ask the bakers to create sea animal desserts in an ocean or beach setting. For the twist, bakers are required to make a custom ice cream with a mix-in that goes with their dessert. Then, very special guests Captain Mickey Mouse and Captain Minnie Mouse drop by for a visit because there is an amazing prize at stake in this challenge -- the winning baker will enjoy a Disney Cruise Vacation!

Paws for Applause
Game on! The remaining eight bakers are challenged by Duff Goldman and Kardea Brown to make paw print gridiron desserts inspired by Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet. Special guest Dan the Ref keeps everyone in line while real live football-playing puppies motivate the bakers. In a twist, the competitors are tasked with making dessert bark from scratch. Finally, it's a gridiron tasting battle on the football field as the same types of desserts face off head-to-head.

Delightful Dessert Domes
Smurfs are taking over the kitchen! Inspired by the movie "Smurfs," Duff Goldman and Kardea Brown ask the remaining seven bakers to create a Smurf dome cake that illustrates what kind of Smurf they would be! Then, since the Smurfs travel to Australia in the movie, the young bakers must make a cookie decorated to look like an animal found in Australia.
