A series about how to cook, not what to cook. We take you out of Grandma's kitchen and into a rock n' roll paced studio-based environment where the focus is the food and on the techniques used to create incredible cuisine as young chefs explore and explain a myriad of cooking techniques.
Each episode offers a behind-the-scenes view of production lines in food factories across Canada to find out how some of the most-popular food items are really made. Through the ingredients, techniques and required processes, this documentary series reveals how raw ingredients are turned into everyday eats.
Each challenge tests the skill and nerves of Canada’s home cooks as they battle in the Wall of Chefs kitchen, under the towering shadow of the country’s best chefs known as “The Wall.”
A larger-than-life holiday baking competition series with themed episodes. In each episode, three professional baking teams have five hours to design, bake and decorate a grand-scale cake creation based on a particular theme.
Freakishly talented cake artists step right up to the sideshow tent to whip up sinister cakes in a one-of-a-kind cake showdown. The baker who showcases the most wildly imaginative and hair-raising cake design wins $10,000 and the title of Freakshow Champion.
Celebrity chefs and good friends Chuck Hughes and Danny Smiles are on a cross-country culinary RV adventure. They stop in six spectacular places in Canada where they go to any lengths to source and sample the freshest and tastiest foods. Then they turn that unique mix of ingredients into a one-of-a-kind campground feast for the local chefs, farmers, fishermen and foragers who helped them gather their bounty.
Each week the talented batch of bakers will face with a range of creative and exciting chocolate-based competitions that will test their sweet imaginations and put their baking skills to the test. These challenges include everything from creating an out-of-this-world chocolate creation with a galactic mirror finish and baking an over-the-top spectacle cake, to re-imagining a classic campfire treat and creating a chocolate confection with a spicy kick. Some of the bakers may melt under the pressure and only one will taste sweet victory by claiming the title of Great Chocolate Showdown champion and the $50,000 grand prize.
