The premise

Here’s the bit.

Four home bakers unveil cakes inspired by Christmas memories. Claudia’s Elsa bears little resemblance to her ambitious design, while Mitch’s Sonic the Hedgehog becomes a toothy, burning menace. Sandy’s carefully made Frosty gets barely a glance as the judges concentrate on the disasters. Ralph finishes the round with an unexpectedly suggestive Cinderella castle, leaving the competition’s standards as questionable as its cakes.

A little extra

Notes from the archive.

Eddie Murphy accidentally swore near the end of the live broadcast; the word is muted in the official online clip.

The rabbit hole continues

One more couldn’t hurt.
