Scoop, create and celebrate the joy of sensory play with our silicone Cupcake Play Set, featuring six pastel silicone cupcake cases, matching candles and a unique swirled scoop.

Designed to inspire creative, hands-on exploration, it invites little bakers to fill, swirl, decorate and serve their own pretend cupcakes using playdough, cloud dough, modelling sand and other sensory materials while developing fine motor skills, creativity and early learning through play.

Young children love to mimic the grown-ups around them, and this thoughtfully designed set gives them a safe, playful way to "bake", decorate and share sweet treats all on their own. Whether they're opening a bustling bakery, running a cosy café or hosting a birthday party for friends and their favourite cuddly toys, children will love creating delicious pretend treats while building confidence through imaginative role play.

Every baking adventure is packed with learning opportunities. As children count the candles, match them to the coloured cupcake cases and create their own sweet treats, they naturally develop colour recognition, counting and simple problem-solving skills. The scoop is perfectly shaped for little hands, making it easy to scoop and shape, while placing the candles helps develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and precision.

Crafted from premium FDA food-grade silicone that's BPA-free and phthalate-free, every piece is soft, durable and easy to clean, making it perfect for everyday sensory play. 

Pair it with our Ice Cream Play Set to create the ultimate bakery, café or birthday celebration, and enjoy even more sweet sensory adventures together.

Note: Suitable for children aged 2 years and over. Please ensure all sensory materials used are age-appropriate and safe for young children.

  • 6 pastel silicone cupcake cases with matching candles
  • 1 purple swirled silicone scoop
