Duff Goldman Sets New Food Network Competition Series ‘Super Mega Cakes’ Launching With Life-Sized Superman Challenge (EXCLUSIVE)

Duff Goldman is set to star on a new competition series at Food Network that’s all about making really, really big cakes inspired by themes ranging from Warner Bros.’ Superman to architectural wonders to classic cartoons.

Aptly titled, “Super Mega Cakes,” the six-episode series premieres June 16 at 9 p.m. ET on Food Network and will stream the next day on Max

The show will feature Goldman’s “Team Duff” as it goes up against six teams of cake artists over the course of four days, all at the same time. Sherry Yard and Amaury Guichon are set as “Super Mega Cakes” judges and will be joined by special guests including Eric Bauza, Beck Bennett, Paul de Gelder, Jack Osbourne, Drew Scott and Jacques Torres.

In an expert synergy move, the Food Network show’s premiere will feature a Superman-inspired challenge ahead of the release of James Gunn’s “Superman” movie release (both Food Network and DC Studios are owned by Warner Bros. Discover) on July 11.

Per Food Network’s description, “In the supersized season premiere, Duff meets the six exceptional ‘Super Mega Cakes’ teams and learns the theme of each challenge. In the first head-to-head battle, Duff is joined by his invaluable righthand man Geof Manthorne and the Charm City Cakes team in a life-sized Superman-themed challenge against a renown British cake artist and her team. Each must create cakes with designs and flavors inspired by Superman that include an animation element.”

Upcoming cake themes include an “Under the Sea” challenge, which includes a floating element, and “Alien Invasion,” requiring a lighting scheme.

Come the July 21 finale, the finalist cakes will be presented to and tasted by a 50-person audience who determines which cake deserves the grand prize.

“These life-sized sweet creations are unlike anything anyone has ever seen – there are cakes with holograms, cakes that float, even cakes that have cameras inside,” Warner Bros. Discovery head of food content Betsy Ayala said. “Duff and these incredible cake artists pushed culinary limits in every episode, and we cannot wait for our viewers to see each masterpiece.”

“Super Mega Cakes” hails from Lando Entertainment for Food Network.
