Cake Off Slot Review


One of the most popular new slot games to arrive at Gala Bingo back in 2016 was Cake Off. When it first launched it had a slightly different name and referenced a popular TV programme that involves baking, bakers and celebrity hosts. However it seems that perhaps things were a little too close for comfort and some quick adjustments were made to the name. Thankfully the format of Cake Off game itself though hasn't changed and it's still part of the roster on Entain brands such as Gala Bingo, Gala Spins and Coral Casino to this day. But does this 10 line slot deserve a star baker award or should it be confined to the bin like a Baked Alaska disaster bake.

Play Cake Off Slots

Cake Off is a very colourful slot that's full of sweet treats. The reels are set on background of a table with a shelf in the background. There's even a touch of gingham on the right of the screen. It's almost as if the designers thought that they'd set Cake Off in some kind of tented baking environment. On the reels though is where all the action is and it's one of the most beautifully designed slots you'll see. The main symbols comprise various cakes such as Marshmallow Mountain, Black Forest and Strawberry Tower whilst the lower paying symbols, represented by the playing cards of J, K, Q and A, are all in three dimensional cake format. If the game doesn't make you want to give it spin a few times then it'll make you want to head to the kitchen or bakers!

How To Play Cake Off Slots

When you first login to play the Cake Off slot you're asked to select a cake. You can choose from Strawberry Tower, Marshmallow Mountain, Battenberg, Black Forest and Fondant Fancies. This selection comes into play should you reach the bonus round. Every cake contributes to a prize total and if your cake selection wins then it pays double. Wagering on Cake Off starts at 10p but you can increase this to 20p, 50p, £1, £2, £5, £10, £20, £30 and even £50. We'd suggest that you play at lower stakes but the High Roller option is currently built into the game (longer term this may have to be dropped depending on whether The UKGC set maximim wager limits to £2). The High Roller option gives you extras like wilds, lucky respins and extra win lines depending on how much you wish to spend. For example a £20 spin gives x4 wilds on reels 2, 3 and 4; £30 adds reel 5 and Lucky Respins into the mix whilst £50 includes wilds on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5, plus Respins and 20 paylines. The High Roller option also reduces the mutiplier prizes on the paytable.

Cake Off Features

When you play this 10 payline, 5 reel slot you have the chance to win up to x50 with the highest paying symbol, which is the Fondant Fancies. Joining the symbols on the reels you'll find a Cake Off symbol, Jam Tart Wheel and Wilds. Get 3, 4 or 5 Cake Off symbols on the reels to activate the Free Spins Feature which includes the Cake Off Vote. Whenever your chosen cake appears on the reels during the bonus round money is added to the bonus pot and this gets paid out at the end of 10, 15 or 20 free spins. The Jam Tart Wheel comes into play when the symbol appears three times across reels 2, 3 and 4. During this bonus round you simply spin a wheel to determine which prize you collect. Cake Off also has a gamble feature. This allows you to bet extra and then gamble winnings for bigger prizes. To be honest we found all these extra options a bit overkill but in many respects it does give the discerning slot player plenty of choice rather than having to find a specific slot that accommodates big money spins and extra features.

The Verdict

We took Cake Off for a spin at Gala Bingo and enjoyed the playing experience. The cake images are wonderful but do leave you hungry for food rather than more spins! The game has a number of features such as High Roller, The Jam Tart Wheel, Wilds and the Cake Off bonus round. However sadly we didn't get close to finding out whether our choice of cake was top of the class. In fact wins wise the game was very disappointing. It does nice to feel you have a fighting chance of winning but with Cake Off that didn't feel the case. Perhaps it was just an unlucky time to play. Overall Cake Off slots looks great and it's easy to see why players will enjoy it. The accompanying piano music is relaxing and it's very easy to find your mind wandering off to a tent somewhere in England where people are baking. If only we could figure out what inspired the game!
