In season 7 of Kids Baking Championship, the first episode is named "Splatter Up!" and it starts with twelve young bakers who are ready to show off their skills in the kitchen. Duff Goldman and Valerie Bertinelli are the hosts who welcome the contestants and explain the rules of the competition.
The theme for this episode is "carnival," and the bakers are challenged to create carnival-themed desserts. The first task is to create a cake that is decorated like a carnival game, such as ring toss or whack-a-mole. The bakers have 90 minutes to complete the task, and they must use at least one ingredient from the mystery box, which contains items such as cotton candy, popcorn, and candy apples.
The judges for this season are Duff and pastry chef Nancy Fuller, who are both impressed with the creativity and skills of the young bakers. They are looking for cakes that not only look like the carnival games but also taste delicious.
After the first challenge, the bakers move on to the main challenge, which involves decorating cupcakes with a "splatter" technique. The bakers must create a splashy, colorful look using edible paint and a paintbrush. They have 90 minutes to complete this task and must use at least one of the carnival-themed ingredients provided. The judges are looking for creativity and skill, as well as a cupcake that tastes great.
Throughout the episode, the bakers struggle with the time constraints and the pressure of the competition. Some of them have trouble coming up with creative ideas, while others struggle with the technical aspects of baking. However, all of them show determination and a love of baking.
At the end of the episode, the judges deliberate and select the best and worst performers of the day. The top performer receives a special baking tool, while the bottom performer is sent home. The competition is just beginning, and the bakers know that they will need to step up their game in order to succeed.
Overall, "Splatter Up!" is a fun and exciting start to season 7 of Kids Baking Championship. The carnival theme provides a lot of opportunities for creativity, and the bakers show off their skills in both decorating cakes and cupcakes. With 11 more episodes to go, fans of the show can expect to see even more exciting challenges and impressive bakes from the young competitors.
