Halloween Baking Championship Season 7 episode 4: Who is a match?
Could two negatives make a positive? That math problem might be the least of the bakers’ worries in Halloween Baking Championship Season 7 episode 4. Which baker falls victim to this sticky situation?
According to Food Network, Halloween Baking Championship Season 7 episode 4, Don’t B-Negative, features the following.
"Host John Henson asks the seven remaining bakers to work their fingers to the bone reimagining a classic dessert. Then, the competitors tackle a trending cake design that must leave judges Stephanie Boswell, Carla Hall and Zac Young’s blood running cold if they want to survive another week."
Looking at the short synopsis, it is clear that the creepy factor is continuing in this season of Halloween Baking Championship. From bones to blood, this season is not for the timid.
While the visuals have pushed the envelope, the reality is that the flavors and execution need to be blended into each dessert. As seen in the previous episode, a great visual is only part of the challenge. That flavor needs to impress the judges.
A few of the desserts have had impressive flavors, but the visuals are lacking. As the competition continues, those bakers might be next to be sent to the lake. There are only so many times that the judges can eat a dessert with their eyes closed.
Overall, it has been hard to predict some potential front runners other than Megan. Her double win seems to make her the “prime suspect” in this season’s unraveling mystery. Still, she has to continue to achieve, which is never an easy task on this Food Network show.
While some viewers would prefer a kinder, gentler Food Network Halloween program, the reality is that this season seems to challenge the bakers’ creativity. Not every Halloween challenge is about the fun. Remember, there is a trick in that trick or treat.
It will be interesting to see if any mid-challenge twist happens this season. So far, that scenario has been left off the table. Maybe an even bigger plot twist could be brewing.
Lastly, it would be nice to have seen the return of the leaderboard for Halloween Baking Championship. While each eliminated baker gets crossed off their poster, appreciating where the other bakers stand in the competition could be helpful. Sometimes targeting the right suspects could help solve that lake mystery.
The new episode, Halloween Baking Championship Season 7 episode 4, “Don’t B-Negative” airs on Food Network, Monday October 4 at 9 p.m. EST and can be streamed on Discovery+. New episodes air each week till a winner is crowned.
