Holiday Baking Championship 2020

In this parody of holiday baking competition shows, four contestants present their holiday-themed confections to a panel of judges. Each baker unveils progressively more disturbing creations: Timothée Chalamet's "Diversity of the World" cake requires his entire arm to go inside it and contains mysterious marshmallows that look like corn; Kyle Mooney's Christmas memory cake is shaped like a penis and balls; Cecily Strong's Elsa cake has a disturbing puckering movement; and most hilariously, Lauren Holt/Heidi Gardner's perfectly executed and normal cake gets completely overlooked by the judges who move on without comment. The sketch satirizes the absurd disasters that occur on reality baking competitions while adding an extra layer of comedy with the judges' bizarre reactions and the running gag of ignoring the one competent baker.
