Kristin Chenoweth never imagined she'd be hosting a cooking show.

"Anybody that knows me knows I don't go in my kitchen," says the Emmy- and Tony-winning actress and singer. "Kitchens actually make me nervous, so when Food Network called, I thought somebody was pranking me."

But she immediately salivated at the idea for "Candy Land," a baking competition inspired by the classic Hasbro board game, premiering Nov. 15 (Sundays, 9 EST/PST). Over six episodes, five teams of professional cake and sugar artists compete in "Candy Land"-inspired baking challenges, in a studio designed to replicate the game board.

Traveling through live-size versions of the Gumdrop Mountains, Lollipop Woods and Lemon Lime Springs, contestants are tasked with finding ingredients unique to each candy land. Chef judges Nacho Aguirre and Aarti Sequeira determine which teams advance, and the first to reach King Kandy's Castle wins a $25,000 prize.  

What was it like shooting in a life-sized Candy Land game?

Kristin Chenoweth: Everything on this set was edible, so I was in trouble. I'd be like, "I'll just have a little bit of cotton candy from that tree." It was like an absolutely magical wonderland. If I'm flipping through the channels, it looks like something I'd want to watch just because of what (the contestants) were constructing and molding and making out of all the ingredients they could use on the set. One day they'd be at Chocolate Mountain, and the next they'd be at Peppermint Forest.

Did you feel inspired to try baking again after hosting this show?

Chenoweth: Yeah, by "inspired" I mean, I got the Pillsbury chocolate chip cookie dough precut, did some white icing, and made them into little sandwiches that I sent to Aarti and Nacho. They were like, "Kris, have we taught you nothing? You can make those from scratch." And I'm like, "I don't want to! I'm scared!" (At 4-foot-11), I can't reach anything in my kitchen! It's hard for me. But if we're still in (quarantine) within the next several months, I might try a couple things that I learned.

Hasbro has been developing a Monopoly-inspired stage musical. Do you think Candy Land would make a good Broadway show?
