All-New Features For The Sims 4

For added ease, you can now filter recipes through various categories, including vegetarian, lactose-free, meat, seafood, and sweets. Not only that, Cooking, Gourmet Cooking, and Baking recipes have been also updated to accommodate other existing in-game ingredients!

2. Sims Can Now Bake Cupcakes From the oven.

Before the September 2023 update, Sims could only prepare cupcakes using the Whipped Dream Cupcake Factory. But now, they can bake these sweet treats using an oven, too!

3. Kids Can Now Use The ice Cream Machine.

Young Sims can now use the Sweet Tooth Ice Cream Machine, as opposed to not being able to do so in the past! This is an essential tweak, as it can serve as a fun after-school activity for them in the kitchen.

4. Little Appliances Are Now Portable!

  • Garden Plants – Plants will no longer randomly crumble into the ground as pitiful piles of dirt. Now, they will maintain their status as plants!
  • Sim Traits – Previously in Create-A-Sim (CAS), Sims will often engage in specific visual actions when you assign them traits. The new update has made sure these animations are back.
  • Newborns – In-game texts have been given some tweaks to accommodate the existence of Newborns.
  • Trash Fruit – Growing trash fruit has been a headscratcher for many Simmers for a while now, as the notorious fruit only occasionally grows from the trash. Well, the new update now lets you properly grow trash fruit from any trash pile!
  • Calls and Invitations – Buzz buzz! Your Sims can now receive calls and invitations from other Sims and NPCs again.

2. City Living Fixes

  • Vegetarians – In the past, vegetarian Sims used to grab leftovers that were not vegetarian-friendly, making their stomachs upset. With the new update, they would no longer go for these meat-based dishes once hunger strikes!
  • Vegetarian-Safe Recipes – Some dishes that weren’t properly tagged as Vegetarian-Safe have now been updated, and vice versa!

3. Seasons Fixes
