### 4/5 — Good...

*2026-07-24, version 2.0.0*

This game is good but I just wish you could change the icing sizes

### 3/5 — It’s a fun game but their is some bugs

*2026-07-19, version 2.0.0*

Ok so firstly this game is a really fun game but I am stuck on this one level and I can’t get past it!!! Like no matter what I do it won’t let me get past it. Another thing I can do the icing perfectly and then when I blend it and I’m finish it says like 89%, like??? I did what u asked. But I feel like the first thing I said should definitely be fixed bc it’s a fun game but I can play it anymore ☹️

### 3/5 — Eh

*2026-07-05, version 2.0.0*

I like this game but sometimes when you completely cover the cake in frosting, it won’t let u smooth it out. But other than that it’s pretty good

### 2/5 — Mad

*2026-07-01, version 2.0.0*

I didn’t like it because it made your frosting appear on other frosting and only when the game did it you get 100% but when you do it by yourself you fail, it’s satisfying but I don’t recommend this game

### 4/5 — Good but

*2026-06-14, version 2.0.0*

This is a good game but sometimes the icing will show up on the other side of the cake when I didn’t put it there

### 3/5 — Ok

*2026-06-09, version 2.0.0*

This app is ok but it will not let me put eny icing on it wich is disappointing so if you can fix that would be great

### 4/5 — ABSOLUTE CINEMA

*2026-06-03, version 1.37.0*

This an an amazing game. So underrated! But I feel like they should add some more updates or adds

### 4/5 — It’s great!👍😃👍

*2026-05-25, version 1.37.0*

I like everything except we have to watch 2 commercials. But the game is awesome in every way.(except the commercials.)

### 3/5 — Adds

*2026-05-18, version 1.37.0*

There is to much adds there is 1 add every cake

### 3/5 — Hate

*2026-04-25, version 1.37.0*

Honestly I hate this game I can never do anything in it because it’s so glitchy please fix it so I like it

### 2/5 — 2

*2026-04-06, version 1.37.0*

Way to many adds every round there is a add

### 2/5 — Icing on the cake

*2026-04-05, version 1.37.0*

Yes it might be satisfying but it glitches so bad and puts different color icing in wrong places. I don’t like think game and think it should be fixed…👎👎👎

### 3/5 — Ok ig

*2026-03-10, version 1.37.0*

It stops at a level and I hate it

### 2/5 — cakes

*2026-02-23, version 1.37.0*

i wish u could make ur own cakes

### 2/5 — I can’t get past one level

*2026-02-20, version 1.37.0*

The game was good so far, but on this one level it won’t let me smooth out the icing so I can’t pass on. I thought it was just glitching the first time so I checked back later. It was the same problem. So I checked a few days later. Same problem. I actually like this game so please fix the problem so I don’t have to keep redoing the same cake.

### 3/5 — What is happening?

*2026-02-11, version 1.37.0*

I hate how the icing gets in spots i didn’t put them at. For example, if i put the icing separately, it adds the other color where it isn’t wanted. This game basically sets me up to fail. Please change this.

### 1/5 — Not a fan-deleted

*2026-08-13, version 2.0.1*

If you’re looking for a relaxing baking game, this is absolutely not it. The whole premise sounds cute — frost a cake, decorate it, get judged — but the actual gameplay is a disaster. The moment you start frosting, the game cuts you off mid‑swipe, acting like you’ve committed some kind of culinary crime. You barely get a third of the cake covered before it yanks the tools away and slaps you with a terrible score.  There’s no time to fix mistakes, no chance to finish the job, and no way to understand what the game actually wants from you. It feels less like a baking challenge and more like being scolded by a hyperactive pastry chef who won’t let you work The worst part? Every round ends with a harsh review, even though the game itself prevents you from completing the task. It’s like being judged for a race where the referee keeps tripping you on purpose. If you enjoy games that let you be creative or at least finish what you start, this one will drive you up the wall. Cute idea, terrible execution.

### 1/5 — Food game but false  advertisement.

*2026-06-11, version 2.0.0*

When l went on the App Store it said l would be allowed to like press icings so that l could put the icing on myself but all you do is spread out the icing.😢

### 1/5 — DONT GET

*2026-04-17, version 1.37.0*

It should be the world’s most boring game. It has so many ads and they take forever. Still it’s not my choice if u get it or not, but I’m just saying, the first day I got it, I deleted it. U can get, but I recommend not to. Get a different game instead

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-04-10, version 1.37.0*

It’s so slow

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2026-03-19, version 1.37.0*

Don’t get this game unless you really like ads. There’s an ad after every level you complete and the graphics and quality of the game is very terrible.

### 1/5 — Sucks

*2026-03-18, version 1.37.0*

Not worth it at all do not get

### 1/5 — Game 20% adds 80%

*2026-03-01, version 1.37.0*

This game is something I play to make time pass but I get and add or two between each level of the game. That’s ridiculous, I’m trying to play a game not scroll through adds!

### 1/5 — This game sucks

*2026-02-26, version 1.37.0*

First of all, in the ad, it has a video of someone decorating a cake, but no matter how much I play this game, every time it is the same thing: “smooth it out”. You just put your finger on a thing. That is the whole game. Second of all, there are waaaaaaaaay too many adds for a normal game. There is about 30 seconds of playing time and all the ads are about 40 to 50 seconds. That is more ad time than playing time. This game is boring and terrible, so please do not buy.

### 1/5 — .

*2025-10-15, version 1.37.0*

Way too many ads. Makes the game so unenjoyable.

### 1/5 — CM

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2026-08-18, version 2.0.1*

### 5/5 — FDA

### 5/5 — So much for creating this game

*2026-07-06, version 2.0.0*

This game is so good for me because I am a cake maker so it helps me practice

### 5/5 — BEAUTIFUL

*2026-07-02, version 2.0.0*

I LWK saw this game on pintrest from one of those “this game is game so fun” pins and I downloaded it and I was having a LOT of fun and when I say a lot I MEAN a LOT I see a lot of reviews with people saying “there’s to many adds” there’s a few ads here and there and I’ve also seen people saying in other reviews that it doesn’t give you enough time to smooth out the cake icing, but it really does. It only stops it when you’re done smoothing out the icing. Like I’m not being like a full critic here and trying to go against peoples opinions, but just in my opinion I think this game is really good and if you’re reading my review, I know you probably just skipped to the end to see if I said it was good or not, but in my opinion, it’s really fun and I think you should download it :3 (I’m sorry for this review being so long😭)

Hi thank you

### 5/5 — 광고가 너무 많아요

*2025-01-27*

점수를 높게 줘야지 위에 올라가서 일단 5점 드려요. 좀 쎄게 말하겠습니다. 제작자님 게임 만드셨으면 리뷰는 보셔야하지 않을까요?? 광고가 심하게 많습니다.. 한 단계 끝나고 광고라뇨..ㅋㅋ 개어이없네요 흥미 진짜 빨리 떨어집니다 제발 리뷰 좀 읽고 고쳐주세요
