About this app
Can you solve the cupcake mysteries and become the next great Cupcake Detective?
A new game from Maverick Software, creators of the original Cupcakes! app. Bake & decorate virtual cupcakes to help crack the cases!
Read the clues, try different frosting & toppings, solve each mystery and get promoted to higher ranks of detective. Earn cupcake bucks along the way by filling orders for your bakery, and use the bucks to buy hints from informants on those extra hard cases.
You get 60 mysteries in your cold case book, and 45 fan suggested mysteries. And if that isn't enough, a new daily case every day adds three more mysteries to solve. You'll never get bored, with a new challenge every day!…

Five-star share of ratings

Arithmetic on the stores' own published rating counts. It says nothing about why the ratings fall where they do.
In the app package we scanned

Method and limits
What a missing label means
Not yet tested. No analysis has been published for this app, so there is no method to describe for it yet. A missing label is not a clean bill of health: it means nothing has been read, not that nothing is wrong.
Limits of this report
- A package scan is static. It identifies code and text in one Android build. It does not measure a live ad session, test a deletion request, or count the steps needed to cancel.
- Reviews keep their sample. A review-only charge shows distinct reviewers, the share and the sample size, and is published only once it clears that label’s published threshold. Calibration labels are machine-drafted and not yet confirmed by a person.
- Not assessed is a state. It is never a zero and never a pass.
- A missing label is not a clean bill of health. It means the evidence did not support one, not that the app is problem-free.
Not yet human-reviewed. A human review gives an app hands-on, recorded measurements. None has been run for this app. Hands-on inspections are not yet open.
