What's that beautiful arc of color in the sky? It's a rainbow! For this challenge, Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman task the 10 young bakers with working in teams to create vibrant and dazzling cupcake rainbows.

In a challenge inspired by The Angry Birds Movie 2, Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman ask the eight bakers to make 12 cupcakes based on a character from the film. Then they team up to build an edible island.

Macarons are a wildly popular dessert, and macarons decorated with faces are a definite trend. Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman challenge the nine young bakers to create macarons decorated with both happy and sad faces.

The remaining three young bakers create cakes using bake sale items like toffee, rice cereal treats or chocolate-covered pretzels. Their cakes have to illustrate a common bake sale theme like Drama Club, Dance Club or Chess Club.

The eight young bakers work in teams to each make half a cake that combines with their teammate's half-cake to make a whole cake representing an opposites theme like fire and ice, night and day, land and sea or big and small.

Dessert impostors come in all shapes and sizes, so Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman challenge the five young bakers to make sweet dessert tacos that look like the real thing.
