LEGO® DUPLO® Creative Cakes

Description

Baking with big bricks

Duplo bricks are larger than ordinary building bricks, so younger children can grip and press them together more easily. This set takes up the cake theme: the 56 pieces turn into sweet creations that can be stacked, decorated and taken apart again. According to the catalogue it includes no minifigure. In return there is lots of room for imagination, because nobody says what a cake has to look like, and the result can change every time.

Sugar-sweet colours

The main colours are bright pink, dark orange, dark pink and bright light yellow. They bring to mind icing, sponge and cream and make the theme obvious at a glance. For children who like sorting by colour it is a nice exercise, since there are only a few clearly different tones. The parts list on this page shows which colour appears in what quantity, in case you would like to add or replace individual bricks later on.

Few shapes, lots of freedom

Of the 56 pieces only 16 are different. Many bricks therefore come in multiples, which is exactly what appeals to little builders: they can make towers, layers and patterns from identical parts without running short. For parents it is handy, because the set is easy to sort and tidy away. The parts list shows every shape at a glance, which is also useful when you buy a second-hand copy and want to check that nothing is missing.

Mixing with other Duplo sets

Duplo bricks fit together across sets, so you can slip this one into an existing collection without trouble. A kitchen, farm or café from the same range can extend the baking game. If you add the set to your collection, the “What can I build?” tool shows which other models your bricks make possible. That way the stock grows with the child, who will keep coming up with new ideas as they get older and more ambitious.
