Loving ‘Holiday Baking Championship’? Here Are 5 More Shows on Netflix That Serve Sugar Just Like That

Published 11/03/2025, 10:33 PM EST

Every sugar addict knows the pain, Holiday Baking Championship finishes, and suddenly the oven feels colder, the whisk quieter, and life oddly flavorless. Netflix, the ultimate rebound partner, understands this emptiness too well. It offers a lineup of festive chaos where butter melts under pressure and joy collapses like an overfilled soufflé. Each show promises sugar, sparkle, and mild emotional breakdowns, the kind that taste just like holiday spirit, minus the cleanup.

While Holiday Baking Championship leaves the oven cold, Netflix turns up the heat with shows that frost, fail, and flambé their way through the season’s sweetest chaos.

1. The Great British Baking Show: Holidays

Inside the British tent, calm and chaos hold hands like uneasy lovers. Past contestants return, hoping to rewrite their pastry sins while Paul Hollywood’s piercing stare judges both sponge and soul. Prue Leith balances kindness with the elegance of a queen who knows too much. Laughter rises like perfectly timed dough, and somewhere beneath the snow-dusted tension, friendship simmers softly, proof that sweetness survives even under fluorescent lights.

While polite bakers mend their baking pasts under twinkling lights, others chase sugar highs at the speed of capitalism’s heartbeat.

2. Sugar Rush Christmas

In this winter circus, bakers sprint against time itself. The clock is cruel, the frosting rebellious, and the stakes as high as the contestants’ blood sugar. Hunter March commands the sleigh while Candace Nelson and Adriano Zumbo serve judgment with the precision of pastry surgeons. Every round births beauty or chaos, sometimes both, as ambition drips in chocolate form. Christmas here feels less holy, more hyperactive, like Santa after ten espressos.

As Sugar Rush Christmas turns baking into a speed sport, another show proves that slowing down does not guarantee success, especially when success is a melted snowman.

3. Nailed It! Holiday!

In this joyful disaster zone, bakers face the oven with the confidence of toddlers holding power tools. Nicole Byer rules the chaos like a benevolent goddess of failure, while Jacques Torres offers wisdom that lands somewhere between sincerity and disbelief. Frosting slides, cakes collapse, and laughter fills the ruins. Yet within every burnt cookie lies a spark of courage, a reminder that perfection is overrated, but entertainment never is.

While Nailed It! Holiday! finds comedy in catastrophe, Is It Cake? Holiday trades chaos for confusion, where bakers do not fail spectacularly; they deceive beautifully, and everyone questions reality itself.

4. Is It Cake? Holiday

The stage glows like a fever dream of fondant as Mikey Day leads a parade of cake artists who turn dessert into deception. Ornaments, boots, and gifts sit side by side, some edible, some not, while judges squint like detectives in a pastry crime scene. Reality twists delightfully here, and with a scary spin-off set for the binge, the chaos grows sweeter and stranger.

As the line between illusion and dessert blurs, another Netflix world emerges, one where engineers meet bakers and both question the laws of gravity and taste.

5. Baking Impossible

In this grand experiment, sugar weds science under the watchful eye of Justin Willman. Teams of bakers and engineers build edible machines that float, move, or survive tremors worthy of myth. Chocolate beams hold, caramel gears spin, and somewhere in the madness, innovation becomes delicious. The creations defy reason and gravity alike, as precision and imagination dance inside the same lab-coated dream. Chaos never tasted so calculated.
