Chapter 58: Sweetness That Touches the Soul

"Zheng Zheng~"

Princess Lejia rushed over as soon as she saw Chen Huazheng. "My grandmother and I ate the fish balls you sent over. They were delicious and we both liked them. My grandmother even praised you for a long time."

She had something to do a few days ago and didn't come to the Shen Mansion. Unexpectedly, Shen Huazheng had someone send hand-made fish balls to the Princess's Mansion.

Princess Lejia was so happy that she immediately asked the cook to cook the fish balls into soup. The soup was so delicious that it made her mouth water. Princess Yian even ate several bowls of it.

Shen Huazheng pursed her lips and smiled, “As long as you like it, I’ll make it next time and I’ll send it to the eldest princess.”

A lot of fish balls were made that day, and apart from keeping some for the Shen family to eat, Shen Huazheng also had some sent to the Grand Tutor's Mansion and the Princess' Mansion.

"good."

Princess Lejia felt very happy and she always wanted to send Zhengzheng any delicious food she had to her.

This shows how important she is in Zheng Zheng's heart.

Hehehe~~

"You came at the right time today. My cousin Ying and I were just planning to make a cake."

Princess Lejia: "Cake?"

Chen Huazheng: "It's a kind of pastry made of eggs and flour. It's delicious. You will definitely like it."

[The cake is suitable for all ages. When the time comes, you can ask Aning to bring some back for the princess to taste.]

Princess Lejia couldn't help but stepped forward and took Shen Huazheng's hand, "Zhengzheng, you are so nice."

It would be nice if Zheng Zheng was her sister.

But if you think about it carefully, although she and Zheng Zheng are not sisters, they are better than sisters.

So, Zheng Zheng can also be considered as Jiang Yining's sister.

Hahaha!

"Zheng'er, what do you think of the egg whites I whipped?"

As soon as Chen Huazheng and Princess Lejia arrived in the kitchen, Zhou Ying came over excitedly.

After listening to Shen Huazheng's detailed explanation of the steps of making a cake and watching her demonstration, Zhou Ying followed the cooks busy in the kitchen.

Chen Huazheng looked at the egg white in the copper basin and picked it up with chopsticks, leaving an obvious hook on it.

"It's whipped just right. Now you can add it to the egg yolk batter."

In addition to the cake batter, Shen Huazheng also had someone whip the cream. As long as there is milk, butter and cream can be made.

Shen Huazheng put the prepared cake batter into the oven to bake.

As the cake bakes, the aroma of milk mixed with the fragrance of eggs slowly spreads in the air.

After a while, the whole kitchen was filled with a rich sweet fragrance.

Everyone was so greedy that they swallowed their saliva. It smelled so good!

After the cake came out of the oven, Shen Huazheng first placed it aside and turned it upside down to cool.

When it was almost cooled down, she took out the whipped cream and started to spread it on the cake.

Although she had a full lunch, Princess Lejia looked at the exquisite cake and sniffed the sweet fragrance, and suddenly felt hungry again.

…

Shen Huazheng cut the cake into small cubes with a thin layer of cream in the middle. The cook in the kitchen and several servants around them were given a small piece.

The cake base is light yellow with a layer of milky white cream in the middle, and it looks great.

When Zhou smelled the fragrance entering her nose, the appetite in her stomach was immediately aroused.

She picked up a piece of cake and took a bite.

The cake has a light and soft texture, so soft that it feels like cotton that bounces back when you bite it, and it also has a softness and moistness that other cakes don't have.

The cream in the middle is smooth and delicate, melting in your mouth.

The rich milk aroma instantly blooms on the tip of the tongue, going straight from the mouth to the heart, making people feel like they are surrounded by a sweet taste.

Princess Lejia couldn't wait to pick up the cake and took a big bite.

The cake is fluffy and soft, the cream in the middle is delicate and sweet, and has a light milk aroma.

Chew gently, and the rich aroma of milk, eggs and flour instantly explodes in your mouth.

It is a sweetness that touches the soul directly.

After swallowing the cake, the fragrance lingers on your lips and teeth for a long time.

"Zheng Zheng, this cake is so delicious! It's better than any other cake I've ever had."

I don’t know why, but every time I eat the food made by Shen Huazheng, Princess Lejia has the urge to cry with happiness.

Zhou Ying had just recovered from the delicious surprise and said, "The cake is really delicious, and it goes especially well with tea. If this cake is sold in Lianxiangzhai, it will definitely become a new signature."

Apart from anything else, the noble ladies in the capital will definitely like this sweet but not greasy, fragrant and delicious snack.
