They usually’ve even turned some board video games into films or reveals, like Clue and Ouija, which did nicely sufficient to get a sequel. However a TV present primarily based on a toy oven? That’s undoubtedly breaking new floor.
And now it’s occurring, over at Netflix. The streaming service will quickly launch Simple-Bake Battle: The House Cooking Competitors, which in line with its official plot synopsis is “impressed by Hasbro’s iconic Simple-Bake Oven, that includes expert and extremely intelligent house cooks, all with a ton of coronary heart and soul, dealing with off and utilizing their most ingenious kitchen hacks to show who could make the simplest, quickest, and most scrumptious meals.”

Newer variations of the toy, which is now made by Hasbro, up to date the inner-workings to comprise a extra typical heating ingredient. (The machine has tiny slots on its sides to insert and take away the baked items with out sticking a toddler’s delicate fingers inside a working oven.)
Right here is how Netflix describes the premise of their new Simple-Bake Battle:
In every fast-faced and hack-packed episode, host Antoni Porowski (Queer Eye) invitations three imaginative house cooks into the Simple-Bake Kitchen. Over the course of two rounds, they’ll go head-to-head, racing towards the clock in each savory and candy challenges, every primarily based on relatable food-filled life conditions that require them to tug off a quick and intelligent meal inside a chosen time, and making it as straightforward as doable!

In order that they don’t particularly say the contestants need to prepare dinner issues utilizing an Simple-Bake Oven, but when this present truly contains folks making $25,000 baked items in youngsters’s toys, I’m completely watching (and probably shopping for an Simple-Bake Oven after which auditioning to get on Season 2). After which I need a sport present primarily based on Hungry Hungry Hippos the place folks need to feed as a lot meals as they probably can to actual, stay hippos. That’s a can’t-miss idea.
