Review

The coolest thing about this game is the cupcake-shaped sprinkle shaker. Filled with 32 tiny wooden shapes, a quick shake releases a scattering of the colourful little shapes, which players match to cupcake cards. Complete a card and it's yours to keep. The game is a traditional colour/shape matching activity, but the sprinkler is a clever new way to make the matches - fun and unique enough to make this game really stand out. Note: Not every shake will dislodge sprinkles - not getting a sprinkle is part of the game, especially towards the end of the game when fortunes can change quickly.

Manufacturer's Description A batch of yummy cupcakes is fresh out of the oven and it's time to decorate! Shake the sprinkle shaker and see what colorful shapes pour out. If any match a cupcake, add them to the card. Collect the most cards and winning is a piece of cake! We don’t know who invented the cupcake, but whoever it was surely deserves a culinary gold medal. The idea of a personal-sized portion of scrumptious cake topped with rich frosting and colorful toppings is genius – pure and simple. Speaking of pure and simple, Take the Cake is a simple game that’s pure fun! As you shake the shaker, you’ll hone fine motor skills, as well as shape and color recognition. For a double treat, whip up a batch of real cupcakes and play this game while you’re waiting for them to bake!
