The brand-new Girl Gourmet Cake Bakery from Jakks Pacific is the latest in a line of cool cooking toys for girls. It pairs microwavable cake mixes with a fully equipped detailing station that features a Lazy Susan, a battery-powered icing pen, fondant mixes and mini cookie cutters you can use to cut shapes out of dough and decorate your cake creations!

Another cool feature of this kitchen-based toy is that it features Duff from the Ace Of Cakes reality show. He seems pretty happy to be the spokes-guy for the Girl Gourmet Cake Bakery and makes a pretty good cooking companion, too!



Some Assembly Required

Don’t be too alarmed when you first open up your Girl Gourmet Cake Bakery - there are quite a few little pieces to unpack and put together before you can start honing your cake-decorating abilities. Once you untwist all the little twist ties and release the plastic inserts from their vacuum-molded packaging, you’ll be all set to go. (Here’s a hint: we suggest you wash all the pieces under water before putting the set together. That way you’ll know it’s clean and dust-free before you start cooking!)
