‘Harry Potter’ Is Coming to Food Network with New Show: ‘Wizards of Baking’

And the Weasley twins are hosting—wicked! Here’s everything we know so far.

The Food Network has a very exciting lineup of new shows coming out this year (ahem, Selena+Restaurant), and things are about to get even more magical. Wizards of Baking, the cooking channel’s latest production, is a Harry Potter-themed competition show where wizards and Muggles alike compete with baked goods inspired by the Wizarding World itself.

Announced on Food Network’s Instagram on May 15, the post has received nearly 228,000 likes and over 2,100 comments.

Even sweeter than chocolate frogs and Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Beans, Wizards of Baking will be hosted by none other than the Weasley twins from the original movies, James and Oliver Phelps. We can only hope they get up to their usual antics and pranks.

And if you’re a serious Harry Potter fan, you’ll be enchanted to learn that bakers will compete on the films’ actual sets. From Gringotts Bank to The Great Hall in Hogwarts itself, contestants are bringing back the magic of the original films—complete with real deal costumes and props. So far, Food Network has confirmed viewers will also get to see Platform 9¾ and The Burrow, among other locations from the series. 

Naturally, this means that the new show is being shot in the UK—and it’s still in production right now. There’s no official premiere date, but it appears Food Network plans to release it in time for this year’s holiday season (aka Harry Potter-binging season). This gives you plenty of time to reread and rewatch the entire series before the first episode of Wizards of Baking airs.

As for the goodies themselves, the latest official trailer for the series shows edible Mandrakes and even Hedwig—Harry Potter’s beloved owl—sculpted out of various desserts. They certainly look impressive (though we may feel slightly bad for eating them). You can expect to see many more cakes and pastries depicting your favorite magical creatures and scenes throughout the episodes.

To learn more about Wizards of Baking and tune in for updates on its release, follow Food Network on social media. We’re hoping to see an official release date announced soon. Once it’s out, you’ll be able to stream the series on Max or watch it on The Food Network channel.
