I agree. My friend's fwb thing happened many years ago and they don't talk anymore because college, so I'm sure it won't matter. I'll definitely send a text to make sure haha

Do you mean literally baking cupcakes and cakes? I only hear that word in the context of smoking marijuana so I always get confused. lol. Real baking can be a great hang out idea, I've only done it once as a first date, and laid the girl on the second date.
Instead of asking for signals, since you're so inexperienced, just ASSUME she is interested. Interpret EVERYTHING as a signal. The smallest gesture as interest. Hell, this can actually generate attraction in some cases if you play it right, but that goes into role playing and deeper topics that I don't want to expand upon.
Just go for it. Make a move.
(Note: Just read the part about your best friend, I assume he'd be okay with it unless he's not emotionally over her, but if they didn't date, which is what fwb means, then it should be cool. Take it up with him first though. If he's really your best friend then he has inside pointers on how to get her as well.)

Real baking, not getting stoned haha. Although it's a possibility. My best friend and her don't really talk because college, so I'm sure it's not that bad. I'll send him a message either way. Thanks for the advice :)

When you want to go from "Friends" to "Lovers" you have to take a few risks.
She may feel the sexual tension between you two, but she's not sure what to do about it. Or, if you've only been a friend to her all this time, she may be clueless. But either way, if she is willing to be alone in your apartment there's a shot. But you have to risk ruining the "friendship" by "escalating."
The easiest way to escalate is either through "touch" or "verbal" confirmation.
So, say she's on your couch, and you put your hand on her leg, or around her and pull her closer to you. Does she pull back or look at you funny? If not, then that's a green light. Pass go. But if she's says "Hey we're just friends!" then you might have surprised her.
The other way is to just tell her, "You know, I think you're cute/sexy/pretty," etc.
Good luck
