Kids Baking Championship (2015)

S9E6 The Spice is Right

The young bakers face a unique challenge as they are tasked with incorporating the complex flavors of Chinese five-spice powder—an aromatic blend of star anise, Szechuan peppercorns, fennel, cinnamon, and clove—into their sweet creations. With the guidance of Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman, the seven contestants must craft desserts that perfectly balance sweet, savory, bitter, and sour notes to continue in the competition.
