Host Jonathan Bennett welcomes the first four teams of talented cake, sugar and pumpkin artists and challenges them to create a scene depicting their favorite monsters when they were in school. To up the stakes, teams must have at least two characters on their board and use a classic school snack in their tasting element. Judges Shinmin Li and Aarti Sequeira decide which three teams move on and which team is eliminated.
