Bakery upgrades and rating system
Progress in the game depends on balancing appliance upgrades with prompt customer hospitality. Each satisfied customer pays coins upon receiving their food, giving you the capital needed to upgrade cooking machines, boost production efficiency, and recruit additional staff. Maintaining efficient service keeps customer happiness high, steadily improving your shop rating from 1 to 5 stars. Achieving a higher store rating boosts your coin intake and enables progressive expansion, letting you leave your starter shop behind to launch new bakeries worldwide.
Tips and strategy
- Prioritize kitchen equipment: Upgrading cooking stations early shortens preparation cycles and keeps checkout lines manageable during sudden rushes.
- Recruit staff quickly: Bringing in assistants automates routine tasks, allowing your main baker to focus on bottlenecks and complex recipes.
- Maintain high satisfaction: Serving guests without delay protects your store rating, directly increasing the coin bonuses collected from subsequent orders.
- Prepare for new recipes: When advancing to new regions such as France, study the updated ingredient workflows immediately to maintain smooth service flow.
- Keep chef movement fluid: Use whichever movement style feels most responsive on your device so you never lose precious seconds between workstations.
