It’s the Season 7 finale, and we’re going out with a sweet challenge! In this episode’s Would You Rather? segment, Rachel and Luisa push each other outside their baking comfort zones. Luisa takes on a playful cake with Play-Doh-inspired frosting, while Rachel bakes a unique chocolate plum upside-down cake. Plus, they wrap up the Christmas Cookie Collection series with one final batch of festive treats: orange cardamom cookies from Rachel and raspberry swirl meringues from Luisa. It’s a flavorful finish to a delicious season!
