The makers of Cooking Craze, a free-to-play mobile game, collaborated with luxury candy boutique Sugarfina for a branded in-game event that gives players the chance to run their own candy shop. When operating their own Sugarfina Boutique within the world of Cooking Craze, fans will be able to create some of the brand's most popular confections, including its cereal chocolate bars and Candy Bento Boxes with signature flavors.
As a special treat for the first 1,000 players in the United States who successfully complete all 40 of the event's levels, Big Fish Games will be rewarding players with their own Candy Bento Box. Additionally, other hidden treats will be awarded to players in the US and Canada throughout the event, which ends just after Valentine's Day this year.
