Kids Baking Championship Winner - Season 11

Monday night at 8pm ET on Food Network is supposed to be the season 11 finale of Kids Baking Championship where the winning baker will take home the prize of $25,000 and a feature in Food Network Magazine.  The original release said the final two episodes will be played back-to-back and the winner will be revealed after the 9pm episode.  But in looking at the Food Network website, it seems they are listing one episode this week and the final episode listed next week.  The channel is also running advertisements that the finale is this week, so there seems to be conflicting information.

The four remaining bakers going into the final episodes are: Naiel Chaudry (Los Altos, CA; age 12), Sohan Jhaveri (Denver, CO; age 13), Genevieve Kashat (Detroit, MI; age 11), and Naho Yanagi (Morgan Hill, CA; age 13).


The first episode description states, "This isn't your grandma's cookie! Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman challenge the kid bakers to put their own stamp on one of today's biggest trends: the loaded cookie. They want the bakers to really go crazy while making batches of two different types of over-the-top cookies. The more toppings, filling and frosting the better for this semi-final challenge!"

The final episode description states, "There is one event that is the staple of any baking business, and it keeps Duff busy all year round -- birthdays! In order to find out which flavor they’ll be making, the kid bakers must record a commercial for their baking business and sell Valerie Bertinelli and Duff Goldman on why they'd make a great birthday cake. The top commercial maker will assign the flavors, and the best young baker wins $25,000 and the title of Kids Baking Champion!


I will update this post with the season 11 winner of Kids Baking Championship once the episode airs, whether that is this week or next week.  Feel free to discuss the final episodes and the season in the comments.

UPDATE 2/20 - There was no double episode this week and Genevieve was eliminated.  This makes a final three of Naiel, Sohan, and Naho who will compete for the prize next week.  I will update this same post with the winner next week.
