Hosted by Egypt Sherrod of HGTV’s Flipping Virgins,
network stars join forces to create life-sized, edible gingerbread
houses that will amaze and inspire! Ron Ben-Israel of Food
Network’s Cake Wars and HGTV Property Brother Jonathan Scott
go head-to-head against Duff Goldman of Food Network’s
Holiday Baking Championship and HGTV Property Brother Drew
Scott in an epic holiday throw down to see who can create the
most festive and breathtaking gingerbread dwelling in just 72
hours.
“The Property Brothers bring their vast knowledge of home
construction and décor while Duff and Ron lend their extraordinary
baking skills to this fun-filled holiday special that will surprise
our viewers,” said Kathleen Finch, chief programming, content and
brand officer for Scripps Networks Interactive, parent company of
HGTV and Food Network. “The sheer talent displayed in the show is
truly remarkable, and of course, there’s no shortage of laughs. I’m
betting there are a few food fights along the way, too.”
Using 20,000 gingerbread bricks, a myriad of assorted candies
and a workshop full of Craftsman® tools and Kenmore Pro®
appliances, the teams construct the sweet, awe-inspiring houses on
a set inside a shopping mall in Los Angeles. Mall patrons are then
invited to view the homes and cast a vote to determine the most
show-stopping abode.
On behalf of the winning team and in keeping with the giving
tradition of the season, a $10,000 Sears gift card will be donated
to Rebuilding Together, part of Sears Heroes at Home program. The
program funds critical home modifications and repairs for
low-income and disabled veterans and their families.
“The ‘All-Star Gingerbread Build’ is a great example of how
we’re delivering for a major retailer that wants to reach the most
desirable consumers around Thanksgiving,” said John Dailey, senior
vice president of corporate ad sales for Scripps Networks
Interactive. “This special showcases the power of our combined
networks and talent. The sponsorship with Sears demonstrates in a
fun way how they are house experts for homeowners – even
gingerbread houses.”
Viewers can catch encores of the special on Cooking Channel Nov.
30 at 8 p.m. ET and on Great American Country Dec. 6 at 2 p.m.
ET.
