Holiday Baking Championship Season 7

The seventh season of Holiday Baking Championship airs on Monday nights at 9pm ET/PT on Food Network.  This season is hosted by Jesse Palmer and the judges are Nancy Fuller, Duff Goldman, and Carla Hall.  The only difference is that Carla Hall replaced Lorraine Pascale as a judge this year.   This year there are twelve bakers competing for a $25,000 prize and a feature on the Food Network app over seven episodes.  Last year, there were ten bakers and eight episodes.

  • Jon Buatti (bakery owner) — Auburn, NH
  • Lorenzo Delgado (pastry chef) — Miami, FL
