Challenge: Sugar Showdown

Four top sugar artists meet in Beaver Creek to create an amazing four-foot tall sugar showpiece. The theme? The great outdoors. The twist? This is an elimination competition. There are three rounds and competitors must demonstrate specific skills such as sugar pulling and sugar blowing. The challenger who doesn't impress the judges after each round will be eliminated. At the end of the day, only two of our sugar artists will be left standing. And only one of those will go home with $10,000 in their pocket.

Celebration Cakes

Ten chefs, all strangers, pair up in five teams of two. For the first part of the competition, they work separately. Then, in the final two hours, the teams get to work together. Their challenge: to come up with a cake that's worthy of $10,000. Only there's a twist...and it's a big one. The competitors won't find out until minutes before the competition WHO their partners are and WHAT the theme is. This is a competition that tests creativity and cooperation, all under a ticking clock.

Chocolate bridges over sugar moats, ice cream cone towers rising from cake-filled castles--and that's just a taste of what you'll see when four confectionary architects joust for the Challenge crown and $10,000! But sugar and chocolate aren't stable like steel and stone, so as walls crumble and sugar shatters, the clock becomes the enemy as the competitors race to bring their fairy-tale fortresses to life.
