bumping this because i didnt want to lose it, but i'll take a look at implementing some of this. no promise on eta but i think this would be a fun system.
because icing is universal to cakes and donuts both, this would also affect the way cake frosting works. cakes can be frosted to add up to 25 units of a reagent/frost to it, and have a ridiculously high cap of 300. the difference here is you could also potentially bake whatever good (or bad) things you wanted into the cake batter itself; so if the qol of having a pickable frosting color is more significant than the easy application of the 25 reagents to fill that pool that you then have to add in through other means (spliced fruit, tedious injections), i think i could do this with relative ease.
the only other consideration is that this seems like it'd probably be a full-tile machine. most kitchens/bars are pretty pressed for space regardless of if the addition is a table-top or freestanding one, so it might take me some time to sort all that out too (and potentially make a little extra space for a few other tabletop machines).
i was hoping to do some fun stuff with baked goods display cases anyways; more customizability for food like this would be really good and add fun mechanics to chef.
edit: actually dont listen to me im silly, you can inject a cake.
