Baker’s Treat Slot Review

Baker’s Treat is a video slot from Play’n GO with 5 reels and 15 paylines. Released in April 2018, you can play this game at online casinos such as Unibet, Dunder or PlayOjo.

Theme and basic information

Slots based around food are nothing new, though some have been done better than others. Here, Play’n GO decided to take some inspiration from baking shows such as “The Great British Bake-off” and it doesn’t quite work. Whilst we get lots of cakes on the reels, none of them seem quite great enough to feature in a bake-off.

That aside, however, spinning all those sweet treats onto the reels can at least pay off nicely and you’ll be watching those cakes and macarons carefully. Just make sure not to indulge too much in the sugary items. Your hips might not be grateful. Or your wallet, for that matter.

Be that as it may, we get a table full of cakes, where the strawberry sponge cake is the most valuable. You get 40x your stake for 5 on a payline. The lemon cheesecake pays out pays out 20x for such a winning combination and the carrot cake still 12x. The blueberry pie pays out 10x your stake for a win of 5 of a kind and the lemon cupcake gives us 6x our stake.

The remaining symbols are macarons: kiwi, lemon, strawberry, blueberry and orange in flavour, each paying out 2x our stake for 5 on a payline.

The big strawberry cake is the wild symbol, also paying out 40x our stake for 5 of a kind.

You can play this game from 0.15 to 75.00, which makes this a slot for medium-range players.

Various re-spin features in the base game

During the base game, whenever you get a full stack of a cake on the specific reel that has a counter above it, you will add 1 item to the counter. Once you have three of one type above the reels, you will activate the Flour Power spins. Depending on which cake you collected, you will get 3 spins with the following features:

• Cupcake Power – Two reels are matching on each spin.
• Blueberry Pie Power – One reel is wild on each spin.
• Carrot Cake Power – All carrot cakes become an additional wild.
• Lemon Cheesecake Power – Regular wilds expand to cover the full reel.
• Strawberry Sponge Power – Macarons are converted to one type of macaron.

It never took long to collect enough cakes of one kind to activate another set of 3 free spins with one of the above features. The Carrot Cake Power seems to be the most lucrative option with a lot of extra wilds, if you’re lucky.

Bake-off free spins

When you get one cake on each of their associated reels, you will trigger the Bake-off spins. You then get 5 free spins. An extra spin will be awarded, if a cake lands on the stack on its reel. This means, you can get up to 10 spins in theory. That will rarely be the case, though.

During each of the five spins you will definitely play, one of the Flour Power features will be active. On extra spins, all five features will be active at once.

It’s a pretty cool free spin feature, even if you will mostly get just 5 spins and you won’t see them often.

Conclusion: Frequent features will keep you going for a while

The theoretical RTP (Return to Player) for Baker’s Treat is 96.04%, which is only average value. This can be a very volatile slot, mind you, so you will have to mind your budget. Thankfully, the Flour Power spins will hit often enough to keep you going. But they might not always yield good results. You can play out three spins without winning anything, as it stands.

Baker’s Treat is a nice little slot that you’ll be playing for a little while. But it won’t hold your attention forever. Mostly, because the theme is just not that great. It gets a little sugary with time and you might want to look for something a little more interesting that a bunch of baked goods.
