Attention Potterheads! Food Network is here with Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking, a brand new baking reality show based on the Harry Potter movies.
The show will be released on November 14, 2024, and stream globally on Food Network and Max. It is a unique baking competition between bakers who work in teams to create magical, mouthwatering dishes.
Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking will be hosted by the beloved Weasley twins Oliver and James Phelps. The bakers will conjure up wizardry and turn it into mouth-watering delicacies.
It's easy to guess where it's filmed—the show takes place at the iconic Warner Bros. Studio Tour London, the home of the Harry Potter films. You can also expect Harry Potter stars like Bonnie Wright, Warwick Davis, and Evanna Lynch to make guest appearances.
It's time to meet the culinary wizards, the teams in Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking.
Who are the teams in Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking?
There are nine teams with two people each in Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking.
1. Elizabeth and Juan
Elizabeth is a big Harry Potter fan who almost retired from competitions until Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking because how can a Potterhead resist this? She identifies with Molly Weasley from the films.
Juan, executive pastry chef, and chocolatier, recently discovered that he is rather a Hufflepuff than a Gryffindor, as he previously thought himself of. They both will compete together in the competition.
2. Jessica and Jamie
Jessica, an award-winning pastry chef, mostly identifies with the character of Ron Weasly because she, too, doesn't take life too seriously.
Jamie is mostly known for her anatomical heartcakes. She is a crazy fan of the movies and wants to recreate the moving staircase as a dessert.
3. Miko and Chris
Miko thinks of himself as a Slytherin and finds comfort in the movies when life gets too stressful. He thinks of Snape as an unsung hero, and we are excited to see him honor Snape in Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking through one of his creations.
Miko is partnered up with a fellow Slytherin, Chris, a pastry chef. He wants to recreate one of the iconic Harry Potter locations, the Forbidden Forest.

Loyal, diligent, and dedicated to his profession, Jordan has everything to be a Hufflepuff. He identifies with Cedric's character the most.
