Things That Make You Go Uhu!hu!

First cupcakes. Then donuts. Now, brace yourselves for cheesecakes! Yes, cheesecakes that will make you go Uhu!hu! Why Uhu!hu!? Apparently that’s the sound Japanese women make when they are happy and satisfied, and it’s also the name of the new line of cupcake-sized cheesecakes at The Loaf that sells for RM5 apiece! Crazy expensive? Well, don’t let its small size fool you as it’s big on flavour. Free of preservatives, chemicals, oils and artificial colouring, the Uhu!hu! cakes are available in 18 flavours with kawaii names like Stylo Milo, Inspiring Fluffy and Caramelised Heartiness. Picking one off the rack is just borderline impossible! If you’re on the go, you can take a pick between three pre-packed boxes – Real KL with a more local flavour, Real Fruit for the fruit lovers, or Real World with a global taste. (How about a Real Cheap?)
