Chapter 149: Devoting oneself to delicious food



Xue Huan immediately picked up a pair of large tongs, took the tray out of the oven, and placed it on the table beside her.

I saw that the egg liquid in the tray mold had completely expanded and turned into fluffy and soft yellow cakes, and the tempting aroma went straight into people's noses.

It worked! It was perfect the first time!

Chun Yan and the others stared at the plump little cake in front of them and couldn't help swallowing.

The cake is still hot after it comes out of the oven and needs to cool for a while.

During this process, the aroma of the cake gradually subsided and was not as overbearing as when it was just out of the oven, but it was still very fragrant!

Under the intense gazes of several people, Xue Huan took a small cake and took a bite.

Qiu Rong stared at her and swallowed hard, "Girl, how does it taste? Is it delicious?"

Dong Yun: "What food made by the young lady is not delicious? This cake must be delicious!"

The others nodded in unison, agreeing deeply.

Xue Huan laughed, "Why don't you try it yourself and know for yourself?"

The small cakes were crispy, soft and fragrant. Even Zhenniang, who doesn't like snacks very much, was captivated by the taste and ate two in a row.

Others couldn't stop eating.

There were cake crumbs on the corners of his mouth, and he looked as happy and satisfied as a child.

"Oh, why are they gone? Girl, we ate too much..." When Qiu Rong went to get it again, she found that the small cakes on the tray were gone, leaving only a pile of empty molds.

Xue Huan smiled nonchalantly and said, "Since we're going to make this to sell, we definitely need to understand its taste. Once we've eaten it, we'll just make it again. This first time is just a trial. You guys have to watch carefully from now on. From now on, the cake-making job will be left to you."

Several people nodded heavily.

With the experience from the first time, Xue Huan did it much more smoothly the second time, and Chun Yan and others also helped.

A quarter of an hour later, another batch of small cakes came out of the oven, and this batch was also very successful.

After that, Xue Huan let Chun Yan and the others do it on their own. She just watched from the side and occasionally gave some instructions.

By the time the shop opened at the beginning of the Si hour, several plates of small cakes had already been made.

There weren't many of these small cakes, and they were just practice pieces for Chun Yan and the others, so Xue Huan didn't plan to sell them. Instead, she wanted to give them as gifts to old customers.

As one of the old customers, Lin Yuzhu visits Zhao Ji almost every few days.

In the past, the places the women of wealthy families in Fengchi County often went to were basically silver shops, jewelry shops, embroidery shops, and teahouses, but now, Zhaoji has become their first check-in destination.

Although eating too many snacks can easily make you gain weight, knowing this is one thing, but being able to control your diet is another.

"No, no, I won't go there again. I won't go to Zhao Ji next time!"

Lin Yuzhu made this resolution many times, but as she was walking on the street, her steps unconsciously led her to Zhao Ji.

Mainly, snacks are one thing, but the cool environment inside is what attracts people!

It's hot in other places, but Zhao Ji is so cool, the environment is quiet, and the atmosphere is good. It's a great pleasure in life to meet up with my sisters here, find an empty seat to sit down, chat and eat sweet ice drinks.

Today, Lin Yuzhu was very glad that she went out and came to Zhao Ji, otherwise, how could she eat the fragrant and soft little cakes!

She announced that from today on, cupcakes would be her favorite! Ice cream and spicy noodles would all come after it!

Of course, once the new snacks come out, the target of her announcement will probably change again.

Now that the shop is on the right track and the customers all know the rules of the store, there is no need for anyone to guard it all the time. Just leave two people in the store to watch over it.

Xia Xue sat behind the cashier counter at the door, responsible for collecting money, while Chun Yan was responsible for greeting customers.

Zhenniang is in charge of all the affairs in the store.

In the backyard, Xue Huan continued to teach Qiu Rong and Dong Yun how to make cakes. This time it was not a simple egg cake, but a real cake.

Another important component of the cake is cream.

Xue Huan still demonstrated it herself first, letting Qiu Rong and Dong Yun see the whole process clearly, and then let them try it themselves.

The only difficult part is the constant stirring.

Every time at this time, Xue Huan misses the modern egg beater especially.

Or, she could come up with a Taoist version of the egg beater?

Xue Huan kept this in mind, but she thought it would be difficult to figure out the answer in a short period of time.

After getting the cream, Xue Huan tasted it. Hmm, this is the taste!

She asked Qiu Rong to go to the front and ask if any customer had a birthday today, and she would make a cake for them for free.

It can also be regarded as a wave of advertising in advance and warming up.

It turns out that three of them have birthdays today.

One of them was Miss Zhu from the county lieutenant's family. She came from a wealthy family and had plenty of pocket money. Like Lin Yuzhu, she was a frequent visitor to Zhao Ji.

Because it was her birthday today, the elders in her family gave her some extra money so that she could buy her favorite things.

One of them is Madam Xu, who is already married and came here with her daughter today.

If Qiu Rong hadn't asked, she would have forgotten that today was her birthday.

The last girl, Miss Xie, comes from an ordinary family. Although she has heard of Zhao Ji’s reputation for a long time, she is short of money, so today is her first time stepping into Zhao Ji.

Her purse contained the money she had saved for a long time. Thinking that it was her birthday today, she decided to splurge a bit and go to Zhao Ji to buy an ice cream to try.

When they learned that the shop owner was going to make a food called cake and give it away for free to the customer who had his birthday today, the three of them were very happy and full of anticipation.

About half an hour later, Xue Huan came out with the freshly made fruit cake.

The cake is six inches in size, with bright and fresh fruits covering the snow-white and sweet cream. It is pleasing to the eye just by looking at it, and it must taste very good too.

"Wow, this is a cake? I thought it was similar to an egg cake, but it's so beautiful." Miss Zhu stared at the cake, her eyes full of stars.

Girls have no resistance to food that looks good. If it tastes good as well as good, then... there's probably nothing that can stop them from devoting themselves to it.

Lin Yuzhu watched from the side, tears of envy streaming from the corners of her mouth.

Why isn’t her birthday today, woooo!

The other customers in the store all looked at the three birthday celebrants with envy.

It was the first time that Miss Xie was stared at by so many people. She felt a little embarrassed, but she was mostly happy in her heart, and her face was flushed.

The little girl held by Madam Xu looked at the cake and started eating her fingers.

Xue Huan placed the cake on the table and invited the three birthday celebrants to sit over. Qiu Rong brought a knife and spoon behind her.

"Overseas, there's a tradition of eating birthday cakes on birthdays. Today, our shop is releasing a new cake, and it happens to be your birthdays, so we're giving this first cake to you. It's a rare blessing that you three have birthdays on the same day. I wish you all a happy birthday."
