A new holiday edition of Joanna Gaines’ wildly successful Silos Baking Competition is coming on December 9!
In a follow-up episode of June’s record-breaking Silos Baking Competition, Joanna Gaines is bringing us a a new holiday edition. The show will feature five home bakers who traveled to Waco, Texas, to compete with their favorite holiday cookie recipe.
One lucky baker will win $25,000 and have their cookie featured on Magnolia’s Silos Baking Co. menu for the season. Joining Joanna at the judge’s table are returning judges Zoe Francois (“Zoe Bakes”) and Andrew Zimmern (“Family Dinner”).

In the newly-released trailer for Silos Baking Competition: Holiday Edition, Joanna tells the bakers that she wants to see their twist on hot chocolate. Bakers are seen using bacon, apricots, masala, cranberries and peppermint. One baker even presents the judges with a 1/2 pound cookie that took her 17 years to perfect.
The show was filmed in front of a live audience on September 26. Social media posts reveal that contestants include a candy company owner, a stay-at-home dad, and a body building mom of four.

On September 30, Magnolia’s Guest Experience Manager Jordy took a camera behind-the-scenes to give fans a close-up look at the work that goes into filming the Silos Baking Competition. Footage shared by the team prove that Joanna Gaines and her crew are seasoned pros.
