A-ha!
Hey guys it's Annie LeBlanc here.
And Hayley LeBlanc.
Today we're going head-to-head
to crown the Best LeBlanc baker.
We only have 16 minutes to plan, cook, and decorate our dishes.
- Yikes - And after that
there will be a mystery judge grading our bakes
off of taste, presentation and overall execution.
Ooh! Who's the mystery judge?
- It's a mystery. - Ah.
And Nickelodeon's going to throw a lot of curveballs
along the way.
They tend to do that, but it's up to us to figure it out.
Hopefully we get it right. Hopefully.
So sit back and relax.
- It's time for Annie, - Versus Hayley.
- Welcome to Le Bake Off! - Welcome to Le Bake Off!
All right, let's see what our first baking challenge is.
You're so nervous I can see.

[dinging]
Okay. Okay.
Yeah, that, that seems easy.
That's really easy.
- No it's not, I'm scared. - Very, very easy.

I feel like we're going to need eggs. So I'm just going to take all of these.
Okay, okay, okay.
Okay, ingredients.
But, there's just, um, ingredients with no measurements on them.
But... We're going to get the ingredients.
- Um, we need... - Does powdered sugar work, or no?
Oh my gosh!
You know, I don't have a lot of experience with baking.
I've actually never baked a cake before, But I think I'm going to do okay.
And all I know is that Hayley is going down, so...
Um, oh here, okay.
Oh yeah, I need to go and check it.
Sometimes I do cook and sometimes I do bake.
But I've only baked like cakes a few times So I don't really know what to do.
Okay, I need this!
No!
I got it! I got whatever this is.
- I got salt. - Whoo!
I don't have a strategy going into this.
Because... I just don't have one.
I have no idea what I'm doing.
Me neither!
Wait, I was just pre-heating her oven.
Do I need to do that?
No, ahh.
I don't know how to pre-heat the oven.
Is this on?
[buzzing]
Sugar.
Let's go with that. Okay the next thing.
Okay, oven is set.
Oh my gosh! How do people do this?
I've never cracked an egg.
[Silent Night playing]
- Hayley! - What?
I just cracked an egg.
Good job!
- I'm a pro! - That's really cold.
I feel like this is a lot of butter but, it's okay.
We're just going to do all of it.
Oooh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh.
I definitely can't break butter in half.
Okay we're just going to put the whole thing in there.
I'm a pro!
What's up guys? It's Dang Matt Smith.
I'm backstage in the test kitchen about to surprise Annie & Hayley
because I'm the surprise mystery judge.
Let's do it.
[coughing]
Keep it coming, keep it coming. More smoke.
Ah!
What does that mean?
Surprise surprise.
- You're the mystery judge? - Yes! Wow.
- Hello!
- Hey! - Hi, I can't see you.
Through the smoke, what is going on?
- It smells like chaos in here. - Well, yeah.
Okay, are you gonna, are you gonna beat your sister?
You know that's the plan. That's the goal.
I sense that she's talking a little bit of trash.
Wow!
She's smack talking over there, I think so.
- Oh, I'm sorry. - She says, oh sorry.
- Is this your first time baking? - Yes.
I know you couldn't tell, because I've just been doing really well.
- Uh-huh, yeah. - But, surprisingly it is.
Okay, well, have you seen an oven before?
All right, let's try it out. Let's see, let's see.
Okay, you might not want to get any of the butter on-
Okay, we're not going to get the butter. Let's see.
Yeah, it's going to be good.
- Thank you! Thank you. - Gonna be good. Yeah, excellent.
Oh wow, what is going on here?
- Okay, all right. - Wow!
Are you nervous?
Yeah, I'm really nervous.
You look more worried than my teacher when she looks at my grades.
Oh no.
It's very worried. And there's no eggshells in there?
No! I actually got them all out.
Good luck. We're going to check back on that in a few, okay.
- Annie! - What's up?
Do you have my vanilla extract?
No.
Um, yeah, I would...
Only people that are this tall are allowed to have it.
Give it!
- Give it before I start to- - Okay!
- Okay, um... - Okay, go, go, go.
Here we go.
[drumrol]
It's actually really good.
- This is so good. - Okay.
That is so good.
So good!
That is so good.
So, so good!
That is so good, oh my gosh!
All right, we're going to lift this. I don't know how to take this out.
Now, I think it is time. Oh my gosh!
One second.
We have pans, so I'm going to pour this in to one of the pans.
Ah! It's leaking off the top.
I feel like that's good.
Okay so now I need to get this into the oven
and start working on my frosting.
I don't care if this takes like days
I will make it for Spongebob.
Okay, there you go.
How long do I do that for, huh?
Parental supervision.
[laughing]
[creaking]
- Time out! - Oh my gosh!
It's halftime, so that means, Midway Mayhem!
Still got a little smoke in my lungs.
Everything on this wheel is a challenge that you will have to face
in the last 30 minutes of this competition.
I suggest you start spinning because time's a ticking.
- Go, okay? - Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
- I'm scared! - Wheel spin!
A dash of? What does that mean?
A dash of, you're going to have to use a mystery ingredient in your cake.
Got it over there, so...
It doesn't matter where you put it, but it has to make it in the cake somehow.
- Oh my gosh! - Whoa.
Sprinkle, sprinkle.
All right, Annie, it's your turn.
- Here we go, okay. - Okay.
[clicking]
Cuffcakes!
We're going to cuff your hands behind your back.
We've hidden the key in some cupcakes over there.
You can choose to bake with your hands behind your back.
Or... Try to find the key.
But baking with your hands behind your back, that's kinda hard, so.
- I think I want to find the key. - Let's find the key.
Let's do it.
- Ah. - Ah, yes. Here are the cupcakes.
- Are you ready? - I'm so ready.
Okay good, good, good. Clock's ticking. Go!
[screaming]
- I have really- - It's in there somewhere.
- Watch it be like one at the end hold on. - Mm-hmm, oh, I don't know.
Oh! Any key in there?
[mumbling]
Okay, oh, aw!
[laughing]
Oh! There it is. It fell right, yup, there you go, there you go.
That clock is ticking away.
Yeah, there you go!
Okay, okay, okay.
Okay. Let's do it.
So Hayley we've got these mystery ingredients.
Which one are you gonna choose?
- Okay, well there's lemons. - Okay.
Um, sure. Cranberry sauce!
- Oh, a little Thanksgiving in. - Yeah.
All right, all right. I like it.
Powdered peanut butter?
Oh yeah, that sounds, yeah, just like mama used to make.
- And then there's slime. - Oh! Now is that slime edible?
- Let's find out! - You do know I have to eat this right?
- Yeah. - So I'mma find out if it's edible or not?
- Yeah! Can you open it? - Okay, well...
Yeah, yeah, of course, because I'm opening up the gateway to my doom.
Okay I need to make sure that my cake is not overcooking, so let's get it out.
Oh, okay, okay. It actually looks really good.
Boom! Okay.
That was good, okay.
So now before I put any of the frosting on I've got to let this cool.
So in the meantime, I'm going to clean this off.
Okay, Ooh! This is looking pretty good, look at that.
So, we need to make our frosting.
Two cups of unsalted butter.
Ha.
I like cranberry sauce, but ugh!
[whirring]
Ooh!
Flip it upside-down, and then.
I am a pro!
Oh!
I mean... Hayley already got hers out?
How do you get them out?
Uh, you flip them over.
I'm going to flip this thing.
[banging]
Go!
[music playing]
[crickets chirping]
Good enough.
Other half... Perfect.
Just pat it. Oh, this piece.
I feel like I can cover anything up with frosting
You know it's actually not as bad as I thought it was going to be?
Five minutes left!
- Oh... - Five minutes.
I feel like Spongebob would like sprinkles, so...
How is half of it not getting covered?
I just remembered about like the extra cupcakes that were over there.
I think I'm going to like, do some stuff with those.
Decorating time!
Just kinda like...
I could make Spongebob! Oh my gosh.
Oh.
- Ten, nine, eight, - Oh my gosh!
Seven, six, five, four, three, two, one!
It's okay.
[buzzing]
We did it!
You're welcome.
Annie, Hayley, that was a crazy hour.
But the good news is, it's over.
And now, it's judgement time.
Competing for the golden whisk. You can't touch it until you win.
- Okay. - Remember, we are judging
on taste, presentation and overall execution.
[boinging]
