Hakeem has for a long time been interested in cooking but we never layan coz he's too young yet to be meddling in the kitchen cooking. We don't mind if this is his chosen career nanti but it's still early days so we shall see where this leads to. At first we just let him help out with the preparation which he said ...borrringggg. His first attempt was making mushroom omellete which he did brilliantly. Then since last week he has been pujuking Mama nak buat cake pulak. So when he found a Puffle cake recipe in his favourite Disney Club Penguin website, dia pun merengek nak buat jugak2x.
Natives to the wild Club Penguin, puffles are small, round furry creature. Several different species have been discovered and each colour has its own unique personality. The Blue Puffle that Hakeem chose is mild tempered, content and loyal...just like him! The other colours are red (adventureous), pink (active and cheery) , black (strong and silent) ,green (energetic and playful). yellow (artistic),purple (happy), white (gentle), orange (curious) and brown (super smart but errrr....dia ni takut belon!).
The recipe looks dodgy but we just let him try it just for the fun of it. Surprisingly the cake turned out very nice and moist although a bit on the heavy side. he sure was one happy boy the day he made the cake.
