MONTEREY, Calif. (KION)--A Monterey pastry chef is showing off her skills as she takes part in the Halloween Baking Championship on the Food Network.

Michelle Lee has been in the business for almost 20 years and spent the last five as a sous chef and pastry connoisseur at the Intercontinental the Clement Monterey.

Lee says she never thought she'd be on a baking show, but when the Food Network reached out to her about this one, it was a different story.

"I am a sucker for Halloween, I love it, it's my favorite holiday hands down," says Lee. "Christmas, Thanksgiving, whatever but Halloween is my favorite and I couldn't pass on the opportunity, so I just went with it."

Lee says there was stress between bakes and she did a lot of over-analyzing, but made life-long friends and loved the experience.

You can catch the latest episode tonight, at 9c on the Food Network.
