The 13-episode series is hosted by multitalented stars Dara Rene\u00e9 (\u201cHigh School Musical: The Musical: The Series\u201d) and Issac Ryan Brown (\u201cRaven\u2019s Home\u201d), who, along with Disneyland resort pastry chef Graciela Gomez, will guide kid contestants through a series of challenges and surprises as they create the most extraordinary cakes inspired by the magic of Disney.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bala family were approached by local production company Audio Militia, who were looking for a young female vocalist to record the theme song and someone had mentioned to them that Peyton sings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHer dad Zwai and I discussed with her, whether she wanted to do it, as we believe that she should only do the (musical\/performance) things she wants to do, with no pressure from us,\u201d says Melanie. They were sent the guide vocals and track for Peyton to practise, before she went in to record under the watchful eye of her dad Zwai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe recorded the different versions of the vocals in about 90 minutes, with the producers and Peyton\u2019s dad there to help where needed, as she can still be shy about singing in front of people. The final product was then sent off to the US for approval, which we received about a week later,\u201d adds Melanie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peyton, a wonderfully talented young girl says she\u2019s very happy and grateful to have received the opportunity to sing the song. \u201cI was pretty nervous but the people I worked with, were very kind and they helped me a lot. I think the show is very cool and is lots of fun,” she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
