Baking

Baking is a skill in The Sims 4: Get to Work. It is similar in many ways to the Cooking skill, except that the related recipes are all baked goods.

Learning

Sims can build Baking skill by reading a skill book, using the Cupcake Factory to "Bake Pastries", or by making any dish under the "Bake" option on a fridge or oven. As with the Cooking skill, Sims unlock more recipes the higher they build their Baking skill.

Abilities

Unlike Cooking, Baking offers only one unlockable ability. At level 3 Sims gain the ability to decorate cookies, cakes and cupcakes to increase their quality. This costs §10 and improves the value of the dish by 50%. This option is only available on cakes made under the "Bake" options.
