Strategy Tips
WHISK is a 5-letter triple threat: Three tiles worth 4+ points each (W, H, K) combine with two common tiles (I, S). On a double-word square, that's 30 points from 5 tiles.
KNEAD extends beautifully: KNEADS (11pts), KNEADED (12pts), KNEADING (14pts). The base word opens multiple extension paths for consecutive high-scoring turns.
DOUGH pairs with common letters: DOUGHY (13pts) adds Y=4 for a 6-letter play. DOUGHS hooks with S naturally for parallel play setups.
💡 Key Insight
Baking words are K and W tile magnets. WHISK, KNEAD, and DOUGH all leverage tiles worth 4-5 points. When you draw K or W, think kitchen — the vocabulary is rich and accessible.
