Cake Factory

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

Gameplay
Teams have to grab ingredients from the conveyor belts and make cakes. One player puts the cake on the plate first, and the other player puts the strawberry on top of the cake. If a player places two cakes on the plate or places a strawberry on the plate first, the team has to do the process again. If a player does not grab the ingredient from the conveyor belt on time, that player gets stunned for a short time. The conveyor belts accelerate as time passes. In Mario Party 2, players grab and place their ingredients by pressing once (and can hold their ingredients for longer if they hold the button); in The Top 100 and Superstars, they instead must press  and, respectively, a second time. If a team makes a cake after time runs out, that team still earns a point. The team that has made more cakes after time runs out wins.
