# My Cake Calculator vs Bake

The clearest difference is rating: Bake at 4.5 against My Cake Calculator's 4.1. Bake also leads on ratings volume (185 vs 8). My Cake Calculator's advantage is review sentiment (93% vs 71%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. My Cake Calculator sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Bake sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bake holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bake has 185 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of My Cake Calculator's written reviews are positive against 71% of Bake's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

My Cake Calculator ships an update fortnightly, Bake every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
