WATCH SHAQ’S EPIC BAKING DEBUT:

In a special feature, “The Mini Holiday Baking Show,” now available on the brand’s YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram channels, Shaq brings his signature humor to a holiday baking competition, getting literal with his liberal use of Pepsi Zero Sugar as “baking soda.” The result is a sweet and surprising twist, a gingerbread flavored cola masterpiece that leaves his rivals grasping at (candy) straws. Known for his larger-than-life personality, Shaq takes a less-than-serious approach to the challenge, bending the rules in pursuit of his self-proclaimed title of G.B.O.A.T.

Viewers can enjoy Shaq's unique baking attempts as he crafts a "Shaqalicious" gingerbread shack, infusing the competition with his creativity, humor, and (questionable) technical skills.

“Pepsi Zero Sugar Gingerbread is a truly magical holiday treat, perfectly captured in a can. This limited-edition flavor is the perfect way to celebrate the season and it’s a must-try for any Pepsi enthusiast who loves the flavor profile of gingerbread,” said Shaquille O’Neal.
