Plain Flour Level 12 — Complete Answer Guide
This is the full solution for Word Kitchen level 12 of the Plain Flour pack, part of the Extra Recipes world. The recipe hands you 8 letter tiles — SKYTOCST — and the key word to plate up is COST. In total there are 6 required answers on this board, which puts it below the game-wide average of 8.2 answers per level.
The tile set breaks down into 1 vowel (O) and 7 consonants. Answers run from 3 to 4 letters, so clear the shorter ones first — each one you place confirms letters for the longer entries. This particular level has no bonus words, so the required list below is everything the board accepts.
The key word COST is 4 letters long, matching the 8-tile set exactly — that is what makes it the anchor, and why it is worth solving before anything else on the board. Plain Flour sits in the Extra Recipes world alongside its sibling recipe packs, and every level in it follows the same shape: one full-length key word plus the shorter words hiding inside the same letters.
Plain Flour holds 18 levels in total. You can step to level 11 or level 13, browse the whole Plain Flour pack, open the Extra Recipes world, or head back to the Word Kitchen hub for all 1,614 levels.

3 Tips for Word Kitchen Level 12
Plate the key word first
Every board is built around one key word, and here it is COST. It uses the most tiles of anything on the board, so finding it strips the awkward letters out of the 8-tile set and leaves the remaining answers far easier to see.
The tiles are SKYTOCST
All 6 required answers come from these 8 tiles alone. Count them before you swipe — the tile set caps what is possible far more tightly than the recipe theme does.
Where this board sits
Level 12 sits in the Plain Flour pack, part of the Extra Recipes world. Difficulty climbs gradually inside a pack, so a neighbouring board is the most useful hint when this one stalls.

How to Solve Word Kitchen Level 12
Three steps that work on every Word Kitchen board, applied to this one.
Read the tile pool first
Level 12 hands you 8 tiles — SKYTOCST — and nothing on the board can use a letter that is not in that set. Counting the tiles before you swipe rules out most of what comes to mind first, which is faster than guessing and being rejected.
Place the key word
Every board is built around one long key word, here COST. It consumes the most tiles of anything on the level, so finding it strips the awkward letters out of the pool and leaves the remaining answers far easier to see. Work outwards from it rather than starting with the short words.
Fill the remaining slots, then sweep for bonuses
That leaves 5 required answers to place. This level carries no bonus words, so once the required set is in, the board is finished and the next level in the pack opens.
