Holiday Baking Championship - Season 13

Host Jesse Palmer welcomes twelve bakers to Santa's Village, the bustling campus at the North Pole where holiday magic is serious business. Throughout the season, the bakers must prove they have the creativity, skill, and teamwork needed to support the big boss himself. Every challenge is designed to help Santa and his operation succeed, from creating festive treats to solving delicious holiday dilemmas. The competition begins with a team-building phase inspired by Santa's belief that great things happen when people work together, and the bakers are divided into the Elf Squad and the Reindeer Crew. But once the teams dissolve, the competition becomes every baker for themselves. Judges Duff Goldman, Kardea Brown and Molly Yeh decide which talented baker will earn the title of Holiday Baking Champion and win $25,000.
