The bakers pay homage to "A Christmas Carol," creating cupcakes with cookie ghost toppers and a hilariously haunting bust of Ebenezer Scrooge.

Time-honored traditions take a delightfully terrible turn with hand-painted cake-pop ornaments and a fruitcake featuring fan-favorite Wes.

The bakers aim for the best of the bad list with angel-shaped waffle-cone tree toppers and a "Nicole at the Pole" cake with rock-candy geodes.

A menorah made of jelly-filled doughnuts, a cake shaped like an inflatable bear, and the first celebrity contestant? This Festival of Lights is lit.

A Seuss-inspired sugary feast of green eggs, ham and the Grinch's roast beast. Would they, could they, ace these cakes? Sadly, no. They cannot bake.

It’s a countdown to disaster when the contestants make festive cookie masks and a spherical ball-drop cake to ring in the New Year.
