Cake!: An Interactive Recipe Book

🎂✨ Mix it. Bake it. Sprinkle like you mean it. ✨🎂

The joyfully celebratory Cake! from Phaidon invites little bakers to create a cake from scratch—right inside the book, with zero mess and maximum pride. Designed as a toddler-friendly introduction to cooking, this bold, graphic board book turns baking into an empowering, hands-on adventure that’s all about independence (and sprinkles). 🧁🎉

With sturdy, cleverly engineered parts, young chefs follow a simple recipe from start to finish—greasing the pan, mixing the batter, baking the cake, and decorating it to perfection. Pull a tab to mix, turn a wheel to pipe frosting, pop out the cake to serve, and shower it with sprinkles like a pro. It’s deeply satisfying, wildly replayable, and completely crumb-free. 🍰👉✨

Illustrated in Lotta Nieminen’s signature modern style, Cake! feels just as gift-worthy as it is fun—one of those books that adults admire and kids absolutely claim as their own. As a sweet bonus, it even includes a real, fully tested recipe so families can bake an actual funfetti cake together when playtime inspires the real thing. (Proceed with frosting enthusiasm.) 😄

A delightful addition to the beloved Cook in a Book, Cake! is 100% adult-free, danger-free, and mess-free—proof that making a cake has never been so delightfully independent. 🎂💛
