In the clean and spacious kitchen, more than 20 cake chefs wearing white towels are working hard. They mix flour, sugar, eggs and other raw materials according to the set proportions, and continue to add other auxiliary materials and bake them to make rough cake bases.
After that, the process of coating, shaping, carving, and plating the cakes follows. A single, perfectly finished cake can easily earn several silver coins, tens of gold coins a day, and nearly a thousand gold coins a month. This is the reputation and word-of-mouth of the Golden Flame Tulip.
At its peak, it was said that they provided all the cakes for the Duke of Landsworth's birthday party.
"Bumansha, is Bumansha here?"
A maid in a black and white uniform walked into the large baking room and surveyed the area. Unfortunately, everyone here was wearing the same light green uniform and white scarves, so she couldn't tell them apart and adjusted her glasses.
"Here, I am."
A girl with chestnut-blonde hair walked over. She had a relatively full bust and a slender waist, and she seemed to have a mature and attractive temperament. Although this girl was not married, people often mistakenly thought she was a good wife and mother next door.
Seeing the girl in an apron in front of her, the head maid nodded with satisfaction. Although this employee had only been in the cake shop for a short time, she learned things very quickly and was now the best pastry chef in the shop.
"Come with me, I have an important task for you." She put her hands on her waist and led the girl out of the back kitchen.
'Golden Flame Tulip' is the property of Earl Hongyuan, a nobleman from Wanglong Port. It is said that his ancestors came from the East. Although he is now of mixed blood for many generations, he still retains the characteristics of black hair and black eyes.
Led by the maid, Bumansha came to the second floor of the front hall of the pastry shop, which is usually where distinguished guests are received.
At this moment, a handsome nobleman about 30 years old was sitting on the sofa waiting. He was wearing a black suit with a flying phoenix embroidered with gold and red threads on the side collar.
"This is the current Earl of Red Kite, Lord Li Lin." The head maid beside him introduced Bumansha.
"Hello, Lord Li Lin." Bumansha nodded and saluted.
"I haven't been to the store for a long time. I heard that a talented person has emerged recently, so I stopped by to take a look this time."
The man with long black hair tapped his legs while sitting on the sofa, looking at the girl who looked like a neighbor's wife, and continued to speak.
"Perhaps I haven't trained my men well enough. It seems I almost recognized the wrong dragon."
"Buniya, please step back first."
"Yes, master." Then the bespectacled head maid quietly retreated and closed the door before leaving.
Seeing this scene, Bumansha was not panicked and looked at the Earl of Red Kite quietly.
"Miss Bumansa graduated from Emenas, right?" The young earl leaned forward, took out the teacup on the table, and poured out the boiling hot tea from the teapot.
"Yes, my lord."
"Don't be so reserved. Please sit down first." He filled two cups of tea and placed one in front of Bumansha.
"With Miss Bumansa's ability, it is really a waste of her talent to work in a cake shop." He recently made some inquiries and learned that this girl was a top student in Emenas in the past and had won three championships in the school.
"Nothing, actually I really like making snacks."
Bumansha sat down and answered naturally. Perhaps this was the confidence of a genius. Even though she had no identity, she was not afraid of the count in front of her.
"Is that so?" Li Lin tapped the armrest of the sofa with his fingers. Seeing that the girl didn't seem to be lying, he could only sigh.
"Then I have no choice but to respect your opinion."
"Actually, the reason I asked you to come this time was because I wanted to find someone to complete a mission. You should know the current emperor."
"The current Majesty is wise and valiant, but he remains unmarried. Only recently did Titania send word that he has found a partner. Preparing for the wedding naturally requires perfect preparations from all parties."
"And we, 'Golden Flame Tulip', have been invited to make pastries. Of course, it's just an invitation at the moment. We still have to compete with a dozen other well-known pastry shops in the empire to pass the assessment and become the pastry supplier for this wedding banquet."
"You can probably guess what an honor and fame it would be to supply cakes for the emperor's wedding banquet. And for this competition, we must bring out our best."
"Hearing this, I believe you also understand why I'm looking for you."
"I will bring the five most skilled pastry chefs in our bakery to Titania to participate in this election. Before that, I hope you can create a new category that is refreshing, attracts the judges' attention, and stands out from the competition."
"I understand." Bumansha nodded.
"For the next month, you can freely use the ingredients in the kitchen. I will also assign you two assistants to facilitate your experiments and create new pastries. If you need any special ingredients, you can tell Bunya and she will meet your requirements."
"Don't be stingy with expensive ingredients. Perhaps the more expensive, the better. If you can help me secure the cake supply for this royal wedding banquet, I will prepare a huge reward of 3,000 gold coins for you."
"I believe this is a considerable fortune for the top students in Emenas."
"Thank you for your support." Bumansha stood up to express her gratitude.
"Very good. I'll leave it to Miss Bumansa this time." The earl drank the tea and put it back on the table.
