Cake Factory is a 2-vs-2 minigame found in Mario Party 2, Mario Party: The Top 100, and Mario Party Superstars.

Overview[edit]

Cake Factory from Mario Party Superstars.
Gameplay from Mario Party Superstars, showing the princesses about to win against Donkey Kong and Wario

Both team compete to prepare the most cakes.[1][2][3] One player places the cake then their partner puts a strawberry on top, though this is unsuccessful if either a strawberry is placed first or one cake after the other. A player stops moving briefly if they do not get their item successfully. The conveyor belts that both food types are on move faster over time. The first team to meet the objective wins.

In Mario Party 2, it costs 150 Coins to buy the minigame from Woody.

      If you place a strawberry first or pile 2 cakes on each other, you'll ruin that cake and have to start again!

        Si vous placez une fraise d'abord ou 2 gâteaux l'un sur l'autre, le gâteau sera fichu et il faudra tout recommencer!
