If you love binge-watching Netflix and eating cakes in equal measure, you’ll never run out of baking competition shows to watch on this streaming platform. Cake-themed competitions are experiencing a huge boom these days, and here are three that you shouldn’t miss for the world.

Nailed It!

One of the shows that started the cake craze on Netflix, Nailed It! put a hilarious spin on baking competition shows. It fully embraces all the madness that baking brings along by focusing on armature bakers with a terrible track record trying to hone their skills by replicating elaborate cakes in their own style.

Is It Cake?

Hyperrealistic cakes experienced a huge boom in recent years, and Netflix hopped on this trend with their hit show Is It Cake? One of the most original and entertaining baking shows on the market sees a team of bakers trying to bake cakes that replicate everyday objects in an attempt to trick celebrity judges into thinking they’re real.

Sugar Rush

Sugar Rush ended its run in 2020, but it’s worth revisiting since it’s definitely one of Netflix’s sweetest shows. This competition series saw teams of two bakers compete in three rounds for a prize of $10,000, and it produced a spin-off Sugar Rush: Extra Sweet, and two Christmas specials.
