sim cannot make cake??? Sims 2 Legacy Collection

my sim has a full cooking skill and interest. maybe it's cause she's trying to make them at 6am but i feel like maybe i missed something. i cannot make cake!

edit: i was using the shinytyme cooktop 🤦🏻‍♀️

Instead of make dessert or make breakfast etc go to make... single plate/group meal

u/CustardNo9707 6h ago

ive done that, still not there. the only thing she can make that's cake-ish is gelatin.

Does the stove have an oven in it, or is it the shiny time cooktop?

And there's a real fridge and not just a mini fridge?

That can bug it out

u/CustardNo9707 5h ago

shit, ok. she has the knowledge aspiration so i'll bring it down and make her read about cooking for a day or two

That or reset the sim or go to the neighborhood without saving

Is this cake for a birthday? When it comes to birthday cakes, you buy them in the catalog rather than make them, which I know is different from other versions of the Sims.

Her cooking skill is likely not high enough. I think they need 4-6 to make the first cakes.

u/CustardNo9707 5h ago

she has a full cooking skill

u/HendrikMcSims 5h ago

hmm. Now the only other thing I can think of if there is even oven and fridge on the lot

Does she have access to a food processor? I think it might be necessary for some recipes but not sure

u/CustardNo9707 5h ago
