In this race against time, six teams of pastry chefs blend innovation and tradition to create edible marvels. Who will bake their way to the top?

Award-winning pastry chef Stephanie Boswell and her team focus on one crashing bakery and figure out how to completely makeover their business. To stop these pastry shops from bleeding money, she must freshen up stale recipes and revamp dingy storefronts, along with HGTV designers Lauren Makk and Breegan Jane, to get customers back in the door. Stephanie does not sugarcoat the truth from the bakery owners as she diagnoses their problems. With her sharp eyes, razor wit and loving compassion, Stephanie can transform these battered pastry shops and bakeries into gleaming showrooms filled with delicious sweets and vibrant, eye-popping desserts.

In Project Bakeover renowned pastry chef, master chocolatier and entrepreneur Steve Hodge throws a lifeline to struggling bakery businesses on the brink of losing it all. Drawing on his finely honed chef skills, his passion for desserts and his business acumen, Steve reinvigorates and inspires the desperate bakery owners, while design guru Tiffany Pratt transforms their tired, uninspired bakeries into warm and welcoming spaces. Together they get these businesses turned around and on the road to success.
