Below are the gameplay basics you'll need to know for Cake Mania Main Street.

Click on the Menu button in the lower left corner of the screen while playing to pause the game and open the in-game menu.

Tick-tock ...tick-tock. Keep an eye on the clock. Make sure you earn enough money to meet your goal or you'll be replaying the level.

At the end of each level, when time runs out, the closed sign will appear over the clock. You must finish serving all customers in line to complete the level.

After all, when it comes right down to it, money is what makes the world go 'round. Jill is living in a material world, and she is a material bakery worker. Tips: The more hearts, the bigger the tip. Jill can either pick up tips off the counter, or leave that slot filled in order to reduce her customer traffic.

This is an automatic power-up, in that the player will not have to pick up anything in order to activate it. This power-up can happen any time in any bakery, as it’s all tied to the player’s performance. This power up occurs if you make a combination of specific moves correctly:
1. If the player serves 3 cakes in a row
2. If the player gives 3 menus in a row
3. If the player picks up 3 money piles in a row
4. If the player frosts 3 cakes in a row
5. If the player decorates 3 cakes in a row
By making 3 moves consecutively, the Sugar Rush meter will increase. Once the meter is full, the Sugar Rush will occur.

When a customer enters the bakery or flower shop, they will appear at the counter with a single bubble above their head. Customers will not place an order until they have been given a menu by Jill. Once given a menu, customers will deliberate for a short time before submitting their order. When they've decided, their order will appear in their speech bubble.

Some customers who enter the bakery and flower shop will have an adverse effect on others in line. Not only is the effect adverse, it's also what some might call "not so good." These customers will appear with a blue bubble above them and, while they're in line, the blue bubble will begin to flash. If I were you, I'd serve them as quickly as possible, otherwise, look out...

TIP: If Jill has a cake in her hand, and there is a cake on the frosting machine, click the right mouse button to swap the cake in her hand for the one on the froster. Risha can also do this in the flower shop.

When a customer enters the burger or sushi shop, they will appear at the counter with a single bubble above their head. Customers will not place an order until they have been given a menu by Jill. Once given a menu, customers will deliberate for a short time before submitting their order. When they've decided, their order will appear in their speech bubble.

When a customer makes their decision in the burger or sushi shop, the speech bubble will display both their choice and the order it must be filled in. This example shows the Tamago Roll. To fill this order successfully, follow the steps below:
1. Click on the Nori, then put the Nori down by clicking on the customer's mat.
2. Now click on the Rice, then click on the mat to place it on the Nori.
3. Now click on the Soy, then click on the mat to place it on the Nori and Rice.
4. Now click on the Egg, then the Egg Fryer. When the Eggs are finished cooking, click on them to pick them up, then click on the mat to place them on the Nori, Rice, and Soy.
5. Now click on the Wasabi, then click on the mat to place it on the Nori, Rice, Soy, and Egg.
6. Repeat step 5 twice more to fill the order.

When browsing the recipe book, you will be able to purchase new recipes for the burger and sushi shops. Below the recipe description you will see the purchase price. If the title is green, you can purchase it. If it's red, you can't afford it yet!

This will appear if you make a mistake while filling a customer's order.

Welcome to Bakersfield! The residents love this town, but they need to attract more people to keep it from turning into a ghost town. To do this, they'll need to open up new shops and get some fancy new attractions!

This will bring you back to the Main Menu.

This keeps track of how much money you've brought to the town.

On the town map, your overall Score will be displayed in the lower right corner.

Keep making more money and upgrading your shops to unlock town attractions. Locked attractions will display a Red Flag on the town map screen.

When you have unlocked a town attraction during gameplay, it will be made available on the town map. Click on the Blue Flag to view the attraction.

In order to open more shops in Bakersfield, you'll need to earn the money to purchase them. When you click on a shop, you'll be able to purchase it, play a level in that shop, or upgrade it! You will be able to view how much the shop costs to upgrade. If the amount is displayed in green, you can afford to purchase or upgrade the shop; if it's displayed in red, you can't afford it yet.
Each shop that you open will bring money into the town. When you upgrade your shop, the Daily Income amount the shop earns while you're not working in it will be shown. Half of the money earned while playing levels in a shop will go into the available town cash which you can use to purchase shop upgrades and attractions.
