Can someone Remind me the number of 1st oven to make quickly using the ‘make & dump ‘ method in order to finish goal

Can someone Remind me the number of 1st oven to make quickly using the ?make & dump ? method in order to finish goal

what number are we talking about here?
I'm using the dump method but I'm not sure what you're looking for by number...
did you mean how many of them should we built? cause my formula is always 4&5 ovens (I'm usually done 2 days before the finish time) but I've seen people building just the required qts and they're doing just fine with finishing the goal.

Yes - oven numbers. This last goal I used the dump method and built 4 of the 1st oven. Then continued as regular and did NOT ‘dump’ to make 2nd oven once I was able. I had to spend a few gem to finish the 2nd oven baking out in time. Do you dump to make 5 of the 2nd oven once you get there? Just trying to figure out the formula So I can get it done without gems and only coin:)

Same. I used this method too, because I need to build 2 of the 1st oven at day one. It really works, because we can?t just wait from neighbors helps & gifts.

ah, yes I did, I used the dump method to build up both kind of 14days goal ovens so I could finish each step quickly. as soon as I'm able to build 5 of the 2nd oven I restored all my 1st ovens to make room for ovens/machines needed for 5days goals since I didn't purchase extra slot. Usually I'd be starting the last recipe of the 2nd oven at the beginning of the 2nd 5days goal (40 servings/5ovens = 8 times baking. 8x10 hours= about 3 days if I don't waste much time in between serving them and baking a new batch, that's why I'd usually have 1-2 days free of baking or just concentrate on doing the last 5days goal).
along with this method, I also set alarm for reset time to send requests and accepting and rejecting gifts I dont need, so someone would be able to fill the quota since a lot of my neighbors would go online during reset time.

Beignets are 3 hours, the main list says 4 lol

Thank you:). As I said, I used dump method to build 4 of 1st oven, but didn’t for the 2nd and had to finish out with gems to get done in time. I’ll have to try this way for the current goal

can't wait to see the strawberry crunch cake, that'll determine whether i participate in this goal or not lol

I usually use 5-6 2nd goal oven to finish the goal, and I often have at least 5 oven when I unlock the 2nd recipe(cuz either 25 or 40 is divisible by 5). If there's not much time left, I will build the 6th oven before I cook the 3rd recipe twice.

For me, I serve 2nd recipe two or three times a day, and I serve 3rd recipe two times a day. With 5 ovens, it will take about 2-3 days to finish the 2nd recipe, and 4 days to finish the 3rd recipe. The 6th oven can help reducing 10 hours when cooking 3rd recipe. [40?5=8 (means 80 hours to finish) vs (40-5?2)?6=5 (means 70 hours to finish)]

This method works for me, and I hope it will be helpful to you.🥰

See, this is one case where a tray is not awful - it looks great! Kudos team!

The tray in this one is actually a part of the design and makes the whole presentation look better. I hope the design team takes note and tries to do more like this going forward. By that, I mean more recipes where the end product is fully thought out and put together super well.

Can you explain with the dump method is? I've never heard of it before and wanted to know more about it. Thanks!

[FMbaby1500]

Hi, so the dump method is where when a new goal comes out you take the free oven they give you and you cook the recipe, then you press the design button and store the oven back and then u place the oven back in your cafe and just keep doing that same cycle. Everytime you cook the 1st new goal recipe
(Example *gator cookies is the first recipe in this goal) it drops parts and eventually you will get enough parts to build another oven/stove/fountain... (12 feathers & 28 Mardi gras beads is required to build another appliance. And Yeah so the overall method is to do that rinse wash and repeat and keep getting parts to build new ovens. For me specifically If I want to finish a goal on time/w days left for bonus goal, I will build 5-6 1st appliance (5-6 Mardi gra oven) then I will build 7 ovens of the 2nd appliance (masquerade stove) I hope this helps. Also this takes alot of coins I'm bout almost broke.

Wooooooooow! (/◕ヮ◕)/

That is exactly everything that I want from a cake on my counter; it's multilayered, colorful, detailed and sooooo pretty to look at.

I'm always super happy when a theme/holiday cake leaves no room for doubt as to what it represents. You see this on the counter and it just screams Mardi Gras and that's exactly how it should be, in my opinion.

Kudos to the designer. Super impressed with the work that the team clearly put in on this one!

[fluffyfoot]

I think they did a great job with all 3 recipes on the second oven! The Strawberry Crunch cake doesn’t scream Mardi Gras, but I absolutely love it. The Masquerade Cake is a work of art.

Is the king cake the only recipe unlocked for Loretta's oven?

[AnnirasSweets]

Is the king cake the only recipe unlocked for Loretta's oven?

In total there are 12 recipes currently on the Loretta's Oven but this specific goal only unlocks the King Cake. If you've not participated in the previous bonus goals, then those recipes will remain locked.

If you go to the CookBook Guide (link in my signature) you'll find the complete listing of previous recipes and goals the Loretta's Oven was linked to/used in.

No, the only way to get goal locked items after the goal has ended is when they're resisted in sales as u-decos. You can request items to be resisted HERE (https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?114912) in the suggestion thread.
