TORONTO, Aug. 18, 2025 /CNW/ - Things are about to get a whole lot sweeter this September! Corus Entertainment's brand-new original series Halloween Bakeshop (7x60) premieres Sunday, September 14 at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT on Flavour Network and streaming exclusively on STACKTV. Hosted by Canadian actress and comedian Lauren Ash, this frightfully fun baking showdown will see eight talented competitors face off in a high-stakes competition for a chance to taste sweet victory, taking home the title of Halloween Bakeshop champion and a $25,000 prize.
Week after week the stakes are raised, and the bakers must impress the judges or face elimination. The competition kicks off with a spine-chilling hayride to a haunted farm, where cursed crops grow and the barnyard animals bite back! Using seasonal ingredients, the bakers must craft desserts that capture the eeriness of the haunted countryside. In episode two, it's on to bewitching treats: from bubbling cauldron cakes to mystical flavored potions. Each baker must work their magic to charm the judges with their sinister, spellbinding bakes. The season continues to unfold with more deliciously wicked twists and shockingly sweet surprises each episode.
Lauren Ash is joined on the judging panel by celebrated Filipino-Canadian chef, restaurateur, and TV personality Jordan Andino, and James Beard-nominated chef, baking entrepreneur, and TV personality Kareem "Mr. Bake" Queeman.
The skilled contestants battling it out to see who takes the cake on Halloween Bakeshop include:
Austin Granados - 31, Winnipeg, Man. (Cake-ology)
Alessandro Caria - 41, Windermere, Fla. (Daisy Cakes Orlando)
Lawrence Vourtzoumis - 30, Montreal, Que. (Patisserie Lawrence V)

'I offered my shoes': Pin trading is the 'unofficial sport' of the Canada Games
Pin trading is big at The Canada Games, like really big. Pegged as the unofficial sport of the Games; athletes trade and collect them for fun, for memories and for clout. There's also a Pin Guide on the official Canada Games app where you can keep track of the ones you collect. So, what's the craziest thing you'd trade for a rare pin?

Fringe Review: Emil Amok: 69 offers rapid fire observations
Emil Amok: 69 2.5 stars out of 5 Stage 5, Acacia Hall 10433, 83 Ave. Early in his breathless one-man show, storyteller Emil Amok Guillermo reveals that he is inspired by Spalding Grey — the late American writer and performance artist known for a series of autobiographical monologues on stage and in film, including Swimming to Cambodia and Monster in a Box. This was helpful. At least the audience (those familiar with Grey's work) would know what we were getting into — something that initially felt like stand-up with a dash of news anchor and then morphed into a look at Guillermo's Filipino-American heritage and American colonialism, with a dollop of transgender musing and bit of Buddhism tossed in to tidy things up at the end. It was a lot. While the artist tried to pull it together using the term '69' to indicate a topsy-turvy world, and the work 'amok' to signal a kind of wild raging — the result was an exhausting look at what Guillermo called Trump Derangement Syndrome. (An aside: three of the first shows I saw at Fringe this year were Trump-focussed, as if we don't get enough of that with our breakfast cereal.)

That's not to say there were not moments of connection with the audience; Guillermo's monologue offered meaningful insights into the Filipino-American experience, and his rapid-fire delivery was sincere, professional and polished, if lacking a consistent through-line.
