It was a bright and cheerful morning when Thuy called out, “Who wants to help me bake a cake?” Instantly, Lala, Xuka, and Chip perked up with excitement. Their eyes sparkled and tails wagged with joy (well, except for Chip, who bounced around on his tiny paws). The trio loved spending time with Thuy, especially when it involved something fun—and today’s activity sounded absolutely delicious.
In the kitchen, Thuy had already laid out all the ingredients: flour, eggs, sugar, vanilla, and their favorite—strawberries and whipped cream! Lala carefully wore her little apron, Xuka grabbed a mixing spoon (although she tried to chew on it first), and Chip stood on a step stool, ready to help stir.
“First, we mix the dry ingredients,” Thuy explained patiently. Lala poured the flour with great concentration, not spilling a grain. Xuka tapped the eggs gently—one broke perfectly, the other… well, it ended up on the counter. They all giggled, even Thuy, as Chip wiped it up with a napkin like a tiny professional.
Soon the kitchen was filled with the sweet aroma of cake batter and laughter. Thuy let them each have a tiny lick of the spoon after stirring. Their eyes widened at the taste—so sweet and creamy! Into the oven the cake went, and the waiting began. They sat by the oven, noses twitching, watching the cake rise like magic.
When the timer dinged, Thuy carefully brought out the golden sponge. After it cooled, she showed them how to add the whipped cream and layer the fresh strawberries. It looked like something from a bakery window!
Finally, it was time to taste their creation. With the first bite, all three of them smiled with pure happiness. “Yummy!” Chip squeaked. Lala nodded in agreement, and Xuka licked her plate clean.
That day was more than just baking—it was about friendship, learning, and making memories with Thuy. And of course, enjoying the most delicious cake they had ever made together!
