Chapter 148 - What's Christmas? (2nd Half)

" A Chiffon cake, Sensei! "

" ....Chi...ffon cake? "

John-Sensei repeated my words, having a little trouble with the pronunciation.

Chiffon. That's a kind of cloth that was thin and airy. And apparently because the cake was like that too, it was named after it. It was not a cake that was thick and very rich in taste, but instead, had a light sweetness and was so very airy, like biting on air. Chiffon cake was one of the desserts I loved.

And as I had made this cake quite a few times in my previous life, I decided to make it here too. The Christmas here was confirmed to be an abominable day celebrated widely by couples, it still didn't meant that singles dogs like us can't enjoyed it too.

And the way to enjoyed Christmas for single dogs?

Cake, chicken, sparkling wine etc etc. Yes, food. Christmas food was always something to look forward to. ....Although the empty feeling that came after stuffing yourself silly was rather....

" It's the name of the cake. "

I poured the mixture into the iron mold. This world made some great advancement but why had the food portion of it laid stagnant? Ah, normal western, japanese food were all being made here but stuff like desserts and sweets were missing. Those food that needed a bit of work to make were not available here at all. You know, food that showed off 'girl power'.

What was this mismatched way of managing this world?

The only desserts that had the impression of my previous world was 'Jelly'. Well, my friend, the First Founder, should had developed the menu here but it might be because he was a guy, he didn't like desserts all that much, which was why that part of the menu was missing. As desserts were pretty complicated, one wouldn't do it if one hadn't touched it at all.

" I have never heard of that before. "

John-Sensei said, tilting his head in puzzlement.

" Really? "

" Yes. I actually have a bit of sweet tooth. All the desserts shop in the capital have been conquered by me but I have never seen or heard anything like it before. "

The domination of the capital...! That was definitely not just 'a bit'! To tell the truth, I was surprised. This serious-looking, glasses-wearing, the S in the SM-kind of guy actually had a sweet tooth! Was this what they meant by having a 'gap'? That [gap moe] heard on earth definitely fitted this guy, with his impeccable looks. Although I was not 'moe' by him though. If a shota was 'moe' by a 26 year old guy, I would be in serious trouble.

And, let's put these all aside.

" Fu fu. Well, that's why I am experimenting. This is a new receipt I thought of. "

I sad, a proud look on my face. Well yes, this receipt was not created by me but an America company who made that but just ran with me on this. It was easier since I cannot explained the 'america' part.

During this period, I banged the mold against the table over and over again. It was not that I was angry or anything, but to remove the air inside the mixture. If I were to missed this step, the chiffon cake would ended up having big holes in it.

" Oh oh, oh my! "

Sensei's eyes shone at my words. That shining face of his as he came close made me took a step back.

" Er, erm..? "

But Sensei had already came close. At my troubled voice, Sensei looked up at me and went slightly red, before laughing as he apologized.
