Chopped Sweets

Two desserts are better than one as the competitors are challenged to make mashup masterpieces. They discover a nutty version of a doughnut in the round one basket, and a hyped-up hybrid meat appears in round two.

In this birthday-themed competition, the chefs whip up celebratory sweets starting with popcorn in the first basket. Everybody's birthday wish is a dessert made from insect flour, right? The finalists try to come out on top with a tough third basket.

In an all-American, all-desserts competition, a gorgeous flag cake in the first basket sets the scene for a red, white and blue celebration. The most American of desserts -- in an exaggerated form -- is the centerpiece of the second basket.

The competitors get a tropical theme and set out to send the judges on a sweet trip they won't forget. The round one basket ingredients establish the vibe with an island cocktail and a hip Hawaiian dish.

The competing chefs endeavor to make bright and bold fruit-themed desserts. A tropical drink and a chewy snack keep the chefs' minds spinning in round one. Punch and pavlova make for an alluring, alliterative pair in the second round.

Four chefs stretch their imaginations as they craft towering architectural desserts. They face awfully challenging duck offal in the round one basket and play with chocolate, strawberry and peanut flavors in round two.

The fear factor is off the charts when the competing chefs must work with some dangerously delicious ingredients -- like the scary, hairy creepy-crawly in the first basket! From moldy to superstinky, the second basket delivers on the deadly theme.
