Play-Doh's popular Sweet Shoppe Cake Mountain play set caused a ruckus during the 2014 holiday season. The set includes canisters of Play-doh compound, cake pans, and stamps and molds for forming candies, flowers, and other confections. The ruckus arose from the extruder, included in the set to squeeze out Play-doh for decorative cake frosting. The extruder, however, is shaped like a penis. After thousands of customers posted complaints on Play-doh's Facebook page, Hasbro, redesigned the piece and offered to replace the original extruder at no additional cost.
