Bakpao Cokelat

I made some chocolate buns filled with dark chocolate earlier. My 4 yo been asking for chocolate buns for days and only today I prepared some. Obviously since I like playing with my food, I made shaped-buns instead just round, and yes, I shaped them into fishes.

My son was ‘helping’ in the kitchen and when he saw they were fish-shaped, he got so excited, while I got a little nervous, because I don’t know what kind of fishes are them buns ?

Is this a carp? It’s a mystery to me ? One of them even looks like a dolphin ?

 I had a little fun with one of the buns ? Don’t laugh, I don’t draw, you know ?

I thought to shape the buns into fishes since I had a bad dream a couple of nights ago, that I grew fish skin all over my buddy ?My husband had to wake me up ? Mermaid is cute (in kids cartoons), I know, but I wasn’t a mermaid in the dream, so nope, nope, nope ?
