The early 2000s had some of the most soothing cartoons ever, with their comforting visuals and colur palette radiating comfort. Remember playing with plasticine, if you didn't, you might've at least seen some kid in your family who has been hooked to them. It looked good enough to eat and Miffy and Friends were made with something similar. So, we actually turned these characters from the cartoon into chocolate desserts. Can you imagine eating your favorite cartoon character, which perhaps falls under Asian desserts, given that the cute ones are sold in Japan as chocolates? So, here's what we feel each cute character would be as desserts.
This sweet, smart, cute little white bunny is the central character. Each episode is a different chapter with a feel-good ending to them, the more you watch them, the more you feel like wanting to eat more, kind of like how chocolate pudding tastes better with every bite. Do try this chocolate pudding recipe and indulge in it while having a watch-a-thon of the comforting cartoon series that can melt all your worries.
The brown bunny was introduced as Miffy's pen pal from Africa, but eventually moves to where Miffy lives and turns into Miffy’s best friend and the little white bunny tends to get a bit competitive. It takes on a more educational approach when Melanie is on screen, and you get the vibe of Dora The Explorer, the bunnies and their friends also get their own voices with the introduction of Melanie. She's a chocolate chip cookie that adds color to Miffy’s life and brings adventure to her life, that's what Miffy said in her introduction of her BFF.
Snuffy is the friendly neighborhood stray dog that Miffy loves to play with and she’s always around the hill waiting for Miffy’s call. As a kid’s educational show, Snuffy’s endless energy causes little incidents like her accidentally tossing over a bowl of biscuits meant for her. Miffy is like an affectionate parent figure to Snuffy who looks like a walking chocolate cookie. Her excitement and hop-skip-and-jump personality is perfectly encapsulated in a delicate souffle. The tops of the souffle are a delight to watch in the oven as they rise and settle, just like watching this puppy hopping around the little town.
Boris is a cute bear who is industrious and hands-on when it comes to making furniture, fixing things or being a reliable friend to the animals in Miffyland. He and his special friend Barbara with exactly 7 freckles, live together and are the classic couple in the show. He lives in a wooden cottage with his girlfriend near the woods. Miffy helps out Boris Bear when on one occasion he forgets Barbara’s birthday and Boris handcrafts a bouquet of wooden flowers because the real thing makes him sneeze. He is as wholesome as a box of the best homemade fudge brownie recipe, that the Miffy, Barbara and his friends can rely on.
She's Miffy’s classmate and friend who adores Miffy and knocks on her door to play with her friend. She looks identical to Miffy, distinguished by the clothing, which too gets confusing at times. She is part of Miffy’s band and plays the accordion and also has the same teddy bear as her which she can distinguish based on their smell. Melanie, Miffy and Aggie love playing play pretend games like playing doctor at Miffy’s house. Miffy parents also end up being part of their play pretend and enjoy the young bunny’s company. In honor of her friendliness, she is a delicious chocolate cake.
She’s the tidy and kind pig with an enviable garden that Miffy is drawn to. Always something delightful up her sleeve, like the time she baked an apple pie when Miffy came looking for apples, and sharing them with the white bunny alongside a glass of milk. She is a smooth chocolate mousse, kind of like the family’s favorite aunt, who you can’t wait to visit for the holidays, or when she visits home bearing delicious gifts. You can also use the chocolate mousse to elevate it into a no-bake chocolate mousse cake recipe.
Poppy Pig’s niece, Grunty is perhaps the youngest child of the lot and of course, she's the most reluctant one of the lot when it comes to helping out, being timid or throwing tantrums. She's a chocolate truffle, equal parts fun and equal parts fussy which equates to the mess created while making the chocolate balls of fun. Try this chocolate dessert or chocolate truffles the next time you have some ingredients at hand, it's easy to make and barely takes any time. You can also use these to upgrade truffles to the best eggless chocolate truffle cake recipe for any occasion.
