Rosanna Pansino's 'Baketopia' to debut on HBO Max on March 25

March 13 (UPI) -- YouTube star and cookbook author Rosanna Pansino is set to host the HBO Max competition series Baketopia.

The 12-episode series is to premiere March 25.

Contestants will be given various baking challenges for a chance to win $10,000.

"Baketopia makes watching the craft of baking tasty treats almost as enjoyable as eating them," Jennifer O'Connell, executive vice president of non-fiction and live-action family programming at HBO Max, said in a statement Friday. "It was a major coup getting top food influencer Rosanna Pansino to do a baking show."

Patrick J. Dooty -- whose credits include Nailed it -- serves as executive producer and showrunner for Baketopia.
