Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman challenge the 11 young bakers to create assigned Neapolitan desserts featuring chocolate, strawberry and vanilla.

The nine young bakers create llama cupcakes in a chosen flavor; hosts and judges Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman also welcome a special guest.

Potatoes aren't just for french fries any more, now they're for decorating; Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman ask the eight remaining bakers to carve potato cutouts and create colourful potato-print cookies.

The remaining six bakers create Italian rainbow cookies featuring classic flavours like espresso.

Interior decorating is the inspiration as Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman dare five kid bakers to make beautiful decorations and mouthwatering layers in show-stopping trifles.

Valerie and Duff dare the four bakers to show off their skills by making 3D dinosaur cookies in the shape of a T. rex, velociraptor, stegosaurus, brontosaurus or triceratops.

Fruit is an essential component of baking, so Valerie and Duff dare the final three bakers to create fruit cakes, but not the holiday kind.
