About this game

In Cakewalk, you play as a frantic baker tasked with catching cakes and gingerbread men delivered along conveyor belts. Missed treats fall to the floor, requiring the janitor to clean them up.

Let too many baked goods drop and the janitor will get fed up and quit, ending the game. Catch every cake in a baking session to earn a coffee break, while avoiding the sharp utensils that can appear on the conveyors.
