Perfect For Mommy's Little Helpers!!
We have a play kitchen but, did not have any play food. I wanted something durable and not the cheaper plastic that eventually would end up in the trash. I had originally purchased this for my daughter's birthday but, when it came it looked too fun to wait!! Even my sons (aged 8 & 4 1/2) have gotten in on the cookie making action. Great, durable toy that helps them...

It has been recalled in Canada
I purchased this toy for my 3 year old son for Christmas, and I know he would've loved it. I just saw, however, that this item, along with 2 other M&D toys, has been recalled in Canada for unsafe Barium levels in the paint. I am returning it, as I don't want to take the risk. I am very disappointed. For some reason, I trusted the M&D brand more than I trust many other...

My almost-three-year-old won't stop baking cookies!, November 30, 2008
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Melissa & Doug Slice and Bake Cookie Set (Toy)
This is a great toy for kids who are into PROCESSES! They can take the cookies out of the tube, slice them, put them on the cookie sheet, then after they are "baked", add frosting, then take them off the cookie sheet with the spatula. My daughter loves the step-by-step process, learning how baking works. She also loves to walk around and serve the cookies to everyone, asking which one they want. Another QUALITY product from Melissa and Doug... they really think of everything with this one! This set will become my new birthday gift for 2-3 year olds!

The cutest idea!, November 8, 2008
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Melissa & Doug Slice and Bake Cookie Set (Toy)
This is such a wonderful idea! My two year old daughter was completely taken with this toy on display so I have purchased it for her for Christmas. There are so many different combinations for the cookies, so many ways to play with it. The velcro is a fun way to mix and match cookie dough and the utensils are so realistic. My 4 1/2 year old son was intrigued with these too so I know that they will be fun to play with for a long time. Excellent product-I can't rave enough!

ATTENTION!! Recall Alert!!, December 6, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Melissa & Doug Slice and Bake Cookie Set (Toy)
I just found out that this toy, along with some other Melissa and Doug toys, has been recalled. To the best of my knowledge the recall is only for Canada so far, but American buyers should probably also be cautious. Please check the toy recall lists before you purchase!! I am sure we all want our kids to have a safe and happy holiday.

minor defect, April 20, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Melissa & Doug Slice and Bake Cookie Set (Toy)
I am a mother of three (children ages 6yrs,5yrs and 17 months)wanting durable toys, that can hold up to rough play and teething. Overall, I was very pleased. However, the cookie tube is made of cardboard and the inside lining was unraveling when it arrived. I just reattached the paper that was pealing with some hotglue and the kids were ready to play. I am not convinced that the cardboard tube will hold up over time with removing and replacing the endcap (for storing the cookie dough). I wish the cookie tube was made of plastic, but my children are really enjoying slicing and making cookies, so I would still recommend the product to others.

Great for letting your toddlers help with the baking!, April 27, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Melissa & Doug Slice and Bake Cookie Set (Toy)
My 2 year old loves this cookie set. He plays with it more than all of the other Melissa and Doug food sets that he has.
The cookie's frosting Velcros onto the cookie and the cookies Velcro onto the tray. The set comes with a dozen cookies with frosting, a spatula to remove the cookies from the baking sheet with, a baking sheet, and a tube to put all your "unbaked" cookies into.
My son loves taking the cookies out of the tube, placing them on the tray, and baking them. Then he loves to use the spatula to get the cookies off of the tray and runs around the house giving everyone cookies.
We hear "Mama, I'm baking cookies!" come out of the playroom all of the time. This is a great little set and has given hours of entertainment to our little boy.
His second favorite Melissa and Doug food set would have to be the Melissa & Doug Wooden Sushi. The sushi set was his favorite until he got this cookie set for his birthday.
The only trouble we have with this set is that our dog loves to chew on wood; so we have to make sure to put everything away before we leave the house otherwise it ends up chewed. Hmmm...maybe these cookies are yummy even though they are wood.

Melissa and Doug respond to Recall, March 28, 2010
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Melissa & Doug Slice and Bake Cookie Set (Toy)
After reading comments about the recall in Canada, I did a little searching and found this site where Doug responds to the recall. After reading his detailed reply, I feel very comfortable keeping the toys I have from Melissa and Doug and buying more. I recommend people go to this site and read the report.[...]

Great toy, January 7, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Melissa & Doug Slice and Bake Cookie Set (Toy)
My daughter loves baking these cookies, especially since you can interchange the toppings. I like their durability. The only drawback is the cookie sheet does not fit in her kitchen oven. It is made to fit in the oven of the wooden play kitchens. Otherwise, a great investment.

Not recalled here, but probably should've been!, April 16, 2010
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Melissa & Doug Slice and Bake Cookie Set (Toy)
The background: I bought this cookie set at a toy sale - it was new in it's packaging. Just by chance I came home and read the reviews before I opened it. I saw the information on the toy being recalled in Canada because of excess chemicals in the paint. I was concerned, so I contacted the head of the toy sale. She in turn, called Melissa and Doug, and of course they said the toys were from different runs (produced in China) and that there was nothing to worry about. I was skeptical, but accepted the answer. After all, I've always trusted Melissa and Doug toys??? Well, when I finally did open the toy (a week later) the smell of the paint was so overwhelming that it made me nauseous. I took everything but the open mitt and the tube that you store the cookies in (the only items that are NOT wood and NOT painted) and put the wooden pieces in a bag and set them outside. Three days later and they still smell horribly. I know what Melissa and Doug are claiming... that the paint is safe "according to US regulations"... but if a toy makes you nauseous with it's off-gassing of overseas non-regulated application of CHEAP paint??? It is simply not right to give a toy like this to your children. Especially a toy that is a "play food" item and there is a chance they will put it in their mouths. I don't car how "cute" or "clever" it might be! That is the last toy I'll buy from Melissa and Doug.
