Twelve bakers consisting of home, pro and social media backgrounds enter a next level winter wonderland and make nostalgic chocolate treats. Then, after an elimination round, the remaining contestants make boozy holiday party bakes and continue battling for the title of first-ever Next Level Baker.

First, the bakers bring the holiday heat with bold ginger bakes! Then, it's time for a holiday flavor getaway as the remaining contestants bake with tropical fruits from around the world.

The final bakers tackle a towering three-tier cake challenge, but only one baker will rise to the top and walk away with the title of first-ever Next Level Baker, winning $25,000 and a HexClad prize package.
