Piece of Cake: Merge and Bake

Piece of Cake: Merge and Bake starts with bad news and an old letter. Emily has just lost her job when she learns that her grandfather has left her his cafe, in a mansion out in the countryside.

What she finds there is a wreck: cracked tiles, a coffee machine that no longer works and empty display cases. Along with the building come her grandfather's notes, which hint at a family story nobody ever told her.

The game runs on two loops that feed each other. On the cooking table you merge two matching items into a better one, so toast becomes toast with a fried egg, then a salami sandwich, and further up the chains come waffles, pastries, cakes, cookies, lemonade and coffee. Customers walk in with their order in a speech bubble, and what they pay goes straight into the renovation.

New furniture, a repaired counter, a working coffee machine and a restored dining room all come out of those takings. Each finished renovation opens a new chapter of the story and a new part of the mansion and its grounds, every one with its own look and its own equipment.

There is no timer and no way to lose. Merges use energy that refills by itself, so you can play a few moves on a break or a whole chapter in one sitting.

How to play Piece of Cake: Merge and Bake

Merge, serve, renovate

  • Tap a producer, such as the toast pan, the coffee machine, the waffle iron or the juicer, to put a base item on the table.
  • Drag an item onto an identical one to merge them into the next tier.
  • Drag the finished dish onto the customer who asked for it.
  • Spend the money on the renovation tasks to repair the cafe.
  • Finish the tasks to unlock the next chapter and the next area.

Producers, energy and boosters

Producers are the machines that create base items. Each one has a charge that refills over time, and tapping it costs energy, which also refills on its own. Rewards and bonus tasks top up your energy, and boosters speed up producers and merges when you want to move faster.

Daily missions and special orders sit on top of the regular customers and pay extra coins.

Controls

On a computer, click and drag with the left mouse button. On a phone or tablet, tap the producers and drag items with your finger.

Tips and strategy

The table has a limited number of cells, so merge as soon as you have a pair instead of keeping items for later. Sell or use up leftovers and fill waiting orders to keep free cells; a full board is the one thing that really slows you down.

Push merges as high as you can before serving. Higher tier dishes are worth considerably more than the base ingredients, so a cake earns far more than the toast it started from.

When the energy runs out, close the game and come back later. Nothing is lost while you wait, and the bonus tasks are the quickest way to fund the next renovation.

Frequently asked questions

What is Piece of Cake: Merge and Bake about?

Emily inherits her grandfather's abandoned cafe in a countryside mansion. You merge ingredients to cook and bake, serve the customers, and put the earnings into renovating the place while his letters reveal a family story.

Can you lose in Piece of Cake: Merge and Bake?

No. There is no timer and no fail state. Producers use energy that refills over time, so the only limit is how often you play.

What do I get by merging items?

Two identical items become one of the next tier. Toast turns into toast with an egg, then a salami sandwich, and the chains go on to waffles, pastries, cakes, cookies, lemonade and coffee.

Tapping a producer costs energy, which refills on its own. Rewards and bonus tasks give more, and there are no timers, so you can put the game down and pick it up whenever you like.

My board is full. What do I do?

Merge every pair you have, sell or use up leftovers and serve the customers who are waiting. Expand the table when the game offers it. Keeping free cells is the main skill in the game.
