Megan Stasiewich

In this episode of Baking Scraps, Lisa and Cristina sit down with Megan Stasiewich from Season 2 of The Great Canadian Baking Show, a baker whose creativity and artistry made her an early standout in the tent.

The conversation begins with genuine fangirl energy as both hosts share how Megan inspired their own baking journeys. Megan reflects on her experience entering the competition during the early years of the show, when contestants had far fewer resources and little idea what to expect.

She shares behind-the-scenes insights about the audition process, the intense pressure of technical challenges, and what it felt like navigating the competition without the knowledge newer contestants now have. Megan also talks about the collaborative spirit inside the tent, explaining how the absence of a cash prize helped create a supportive environment where bakers genuinely rooted for each other.

Beyond the show, Megan discusses the creative freedom to experiment with new ideas she has as a professional baker, and the philosophy that guides her baking: have fun, stay confident, and embrace the unpredictability of working with real ingredients.

The episode is full of humor and plenty of baking wisdom from a fan favorite.
