New Style Boutique 3: Styling Star features a new location called the Cake Shop where you can find mouth watering desserts and yummy food themed miniatures. The Cake Shop is run by a married couple who go by the names Mike and Madeira. Here you can purchase various food themed miniatures and talk to the owners of the shop.
Mike runs the counter at the shop and Madeira bakes all the treats. She rarely talks but is a skilled baker. Madeira will visit the boutique for some outfits during the main story line of the game. She will give you tricky clues on what style of outfit she is looking for and usually requests outfits to help with inspiration for new recipes.
Make sure to visit the Cake Shop to stock up on all the food miniatures available. The selection doesn't change often, so it doesn't matter if you miss a day or two visiting. Once purchased, the miniatures can be found under the Food Category when remodelling your boutique or apartment. For a detailed guide of all the food miniatures available, please visit the Food Miniatures Guide.
