lineup has been heavy on special-themed cake decorating challenges. But the craziest, creepiest cake designs are the ones featured on“Hal- loween FreakshowCakes,”a four-episode limited series that debuted on Food Network last week (Oct. 18) and continues with back-to-back episodes this Sunday,Oct. 25. If you haven’t tuned in yet but thought the title sounded familiar,“FreakshowCakes” —without“Halloween” in its title—premiered last year on Cooking Channel.This year, it’s been called up to fill a spot (or
four, technically) in the Food Network roster.And other than the addition of “Halloween” to its title, not much has changed from the show’s inaugural run. HostsVivian Chan and Zac Young oversee the action that is all about making cake creations worthy of themost frightening carnival sideshow. In each epi- sode, three teams of cake artists are given a Halloween-worthy theme andmust race against the clock (and each other) to bake and decorate thewildest, most imaginative and almost nightmarish interpretation of that sinister theme.There are some added challenges, of course, but at the end of each episode, the“Halloween Freak- show”champion is crowned and awarded the prize of $10,000. Each episode is self- contained, there’s noweekly elimination to track (it’s not possible given the limited run) and the format is a familiar one to Food Network viewers, so this is one“series” (technically specials) that you can easily jump intowithout seeing any prior episodes. The themes for the Oct. 18 episodes were snake charming gonewrong and fire breath- ers.This Sunday’s“double premieres” (per FoodNetwork) will follow the contestants as they createmystical fortune teller cakes with a horrifying crystal ball vision.The fourth installment is all about creepy clowns and, in both episodes, the contestants also need to whip up a sideshow sweet that complements their cake creations, so it’s not just about their decorating skills. “Halloween Freakshow Cakes” is awild ride that will appeal to cake lovers and viewers with a darker sense of humor.Tune in this Sunday, Oct. 25 to catch the action as FoodNetworkwraps up its Hal- loween programming before shifting the focus to all things turkey.
ByMichelle Rose TVMedia B y now, you’ve probably seen enough cake-deco- rating shows to know you can make a cake version of practi- cally anything.And if pushing cake and engineering bound- aries is your thing, Halloween is the perfect holiday for scary, over-the-top creations that would be the stuff of night- mares if they weren’t all made of sugar, flour and water.
