The holiday schedule begins with a new season of Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking on Sunday (November 2) at 8pm ET/PT, to be followed by the special World’s Sweetest Candy Shops at 10pm ET/PT, which will provide a “look behind the scenes at three of the world’s biggest, sweet stores as they prepare for their busiest time of the year.”
On November 3 at 8pm ET/PT, a new season of Holiday Baking Championship will return with host Jesse Palmer returning and splitting the 12 competing bakers into teams of Naughty vs. Nice.
“Judges Duff Goldman, Nancy Fuller, and Kardea Brown will bring tough love as they determine which amazing baker will earn the title of Holiday Baking Champion and receive a feature in Food Network magazine and the grand prize of $25,000,” shares the press release.
On Wednesday (November 5) at 8pm ET/PT, “Guy Fieri will make the most wonderful time of the year even more wonderful, with a high-stakes holiday incarnation of the ultimate sudden-death culinary showdown, Tournament of Champions: All-Star Christmas. And because the holidays are a time for cooking with the ones you love, chefs will be invited to pair up in teams of two to compete for glory and goodwill. In every battle, teams will serve up a savory and a sweet dish based on the spin of the Randomizer.”
Then the new competition series Sweet Empire premieres on Sunday, November 9 at 9pm ET/PT.
Here’s the synopsis: “Fourteen of the most competitive and talented sweets makers are invited to the Yuletide Lodge for a competition unlike any other. While the competitors enter as individuals, their goal will be to get on– and stay on– the strongest team by any means necessary, because in this game the bakers must create incredible edible works of art to grow their teams and avoid elimination. In the end, teams will crumble until only the strongest will be left standing to become the Sweet Empire. Wells Adams will host with Jacques Torres and Yolanda Gampp serving as judges in this holiday baking competition with an edge.”
Finally, Beat Bobby Flay: Holiday Throwdown debuts on Tuesday (November 11) at 8pm ET/PT.
“Last holiday season, Bobby Flay didn’t play nice and ended up with a clean sweep. This year, all his old friends and Food Network’s favorite chefs will return to serve a helping of ‘Revengesgiving’ with a heaping side of ‘holi-payback.’ The stakes will be higher than ever, as everyone is out to ruin Bobby’s holiday season.”
