With Monkey King's birthday fast approaching and a distinct lack of palm oil free goodies in the shops, Monkey Queen is planning a homemade cake surprise for the big day! This was a perfect excuse for MQ to put aside the sockosimian creations, and indulge her other great love, creating naughty treats! Well, for something as special as a Sanctuary birthday, you can't just leave things to chance, so MQ dusted off her, erm, internet search thingy, and in 3 key strokes had found the perfect Vicky Sponge cake recipe (cheers James Martin!).... just under an hour later, the kitchen smelled delicious and a yummy cake was ready.
However, she had forgotten one essential thing....NEVER, EVER leave unguarded cake near a monkey, and definitely do not go off to bed expecting any cake to be left next day!
MQ awoke this morning looking forward to a Sunday afternoon cup of coffee and slice of tasty cake, only to stumble on this scene of devastation in the kitchen...3 naughty jam and buttercream smeared monkeys and one Orang all with very sore bellies!
Looks like this lot will be spending the rest of the day lolling around on the sofa in a post treat binge haze, and suffering a massive sugar comedown!
