The BEST seasons of Holiday Baking Championship

Every season of Holiday Baking Championship ever, ranked from best to worst by thousands of votes from fans of the show. The best seasons of Holiday Baking Championship!

The search to find the greatest holiday baker begins as eight amateur bakers enter the kitchen, where they show off their family traditions and superb baking skills. To survive the challenges from week to week, they must prove their abilities in front of our tough-love judges: Duff Goldman, Nancy Fuller and Lorraine Pascale. Hosted by Bobby Deen, this baking championship is the sweetest way to celebrate this holiday season.
