I've read a few discussions about CakePHP returning objects vs.
arrays, and this is NOT intended to be such. I just have a question,
related to it:

I used to have (i.e. "before CakePHP") objects like this:

class Apple {
  var $color;
  var $sweet;
  function __construct($id = false) {
    if ($id) $this->load($id);
    return $this;
  }
  function load($id) {
    ... do something to load apple with `id` = $id from db ...
  }
  function isRed() {
    if ($this->color == 'red') return true;
    else return false;
  }
}


In my code I would then often work like this:

$apple = new Apple(123);
if ($apple->isRed()) echo 'Apple is red";
else echo 'Apple is not red';


Now my question:
Where would a function like isRed() be located in the the CakePHP-way?

Since in Cake I don't have an object to call a model's method on, I am
not sure how to go about this...
