In fact, this speed was not much better than Zhu Bajie ‘s. However, Lilian didn’t have any thoughts about it. As long as one ate more and tasted faster, they would definitely be the winner.

The next few desserts didn’t disappoint Lilian at all. On the contrary, it could be said that there were endless surprises and she was in a state of amazement at all times.

For example, man man ordered the vegetable buns, which were the typical and delicious type of vegetable buns. It was the most suitable for Lilian to experience the charm of Chinese desserts.

Steamed buns had a common name, which was radish cake. Once this was mentioned, everyone would know. Even Lilian knew that it was made of radish.

However, the radishes were a little different from the golden-yellow, steaming, and fragrant ones that were served, which made people very curious.

Lilian thought that the radishes would be white in color since both the radishes and the flour were white.

To be honest, the Golden color was indeed much better than the White one had imagined. In addition, the fragrance was really fragrant. Unlike the subtle fragrance of the mung bean cake and Longjing tea pastries, the fragrance of the steamed bun was more expressive.

It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It was sweet and delicious. It was oily but not greasy. It was especially delicious. It was completely different from the delicate texture of the previous two desserts. The steamed bun was rougher, but it was this rough feeling that matched the sweet fragrance of the radish that made everyone who ate it feel very comfortable.

Lilian closed her eyes and imagined the blooming lavender field around her. The fragrance of lavender permeated the air, making her feel fresh, natural, and lively. The smell of life seemed to be mixed in.

Not only the steamed buns, but the sweet and fluffy texture of the pan-fried cake was also different from the slightly chewy radish cake just now. It was very pleasing.

...

For example, the texture of a cake was a little chewy, and the rich texture was even more layered than a cake. The rich ingredients not only threw the sweet, fragrant, and soft taste of the cake to the side, but also the rich stuffing made people feel like they were not eating pastries but vegetables. There were also main dishes and vegetables, which was especially suitable for the scene.

To be able to compete with the soft and fluffy pan-fried cake, it was naturally the famous Bowl cake in min province. It was steaming hot and soft after being steamed. Almost every person in min province was very friendly towards bowl cakes, especially the snail meat bowl cake. This was a pastry with many legends. Not only was it attached with a layer of mythical colors, but its taste was also amazing.

Lilian didn’t stop eating since the first snack was served. She was munching on fragrant or lively pastries from time to time. Before the first experience ended, the next one was already coming.

The word ‘overwhelmed’ wasn’t enough to describe Lilian’s current feelings. She only felt that she was truly blessed. She didn’t even feel so emotional when she was surrounded by many cakes and desserts in man man’s cake shop. If she could really stay in the shop and be surrounded by rich and wonderful desserts all the time, it would be even more proud and blissful than going to heaven.

“Gudong”

Lilian didn’t know how many times she had swallowed her saliva, but she felt that it wasn’t enough. She wished that she had three or four mouths so that she could eat a piece of pastry with each mouth. Thinking about it, she felt that she would wake up laughing from her dreams if such a good thing happened.

“Manman, I heard that there’s a person here who has three heads and six arms. How do you think he grew? do ordinary people have any hope?” Lilian quickly asked the question before the last dessert was served.

Man man was speechless.

Three heads and six arms, Nezha?

What the hell is ‘grow up into Nezha’? man man said that this was probably not a problem that could be explained by the difference between the East and the West.

Subconsciously, she touched her big head. Man man felt that her head should be considered normal. It should be enough and she didn’t need to owe money.

“This is a character from the myths and legends, just like the so-called Zeus and Athena in your legends.” Man man looked at Lilian with concern and decided to explain.

Lilian didn’t say anything after hearing man man’s words. However, she looked very disappointed. She didn’t know if it was because she couldn’t have three mouths to eat the dessert.

In the end, a slightly bitter fragrance broke the silence between the two of them. Lilian was instantly revived and looked at the snow-white fluffy pastries that had just been served.

This was probably the most cake-shaped pastry. It was round in shape with a thick layer of white powdery substance on top. The beautiful white surface looked very fluffy.

The middle layer was brown, and the bottom layer was white and soft. The overall size was like a six-inch cake.

Although the snow-white surface was still different from cream, it really looked like a cake.

After searching for Lilian, he didn’t find any tools to cut the ‘cake’. In the end, he picked up the chopsticks that had a low presence and decided to cut the cake.

At the sight of Lilian’s posture, man man knew that Lilian didn’t notice that the cake had been cut. She took the initiative to use the chopsticks to gently move the cake at a very subtle boundary and the whole cake was divided into pieces.

Only man man, who often ate Yuan Zhou’s food, could see that although the surface was smooth, some fine places were slightly sunken, which was not naturally formed. The traces of artificial work could be seen.

After man man fiddled with it, the difference became obvious. Lilian took a closer look and still didn’t see much difference. She was also a little confused even if she searched according to the traces.

But no matter what, eating it was the most important thing, so Lilian didn’t care about how to split it and picked up a piece of pastry.

It looked like powder, as if touching it would cause the powder to fall off, but when he held it in his hand, he knew that it was not like that. Although the powder looked obvious, it was actually very well blended with the water vapor. The powder and the water vapor blended well, not only retaining the texture of the particles, but also increasing the stickiness.

It was soft and fluffy in his mouth, one layer soft, one layer fine, and another layer soft. The sweetness of the bean paste and the fluffy texture of the Poria powder combined perfectly.

If one only ate a thick layer of bean paste filling, one might feel a bit greasy; however, when it was combined with the soft Poria powder, one would not have such concerns. The slight bitterness of the Poria powder that was unique to Traditional Chinese Medicine and the sweetness met each other, forming a warm fate.

In the end, Lilian couldn’t help but lick her fingers even though there was nothing on them. It was as if something was missing.

“Manman, do you think head chef Yuan has the intention to open a restaurant France? our Association can be in charge of the storefront and decorations. It’s fine as long as head chef yuan can go there. Opening a Chinese pastry shop will definitely attract a lot of people. Moreover, we can also promote Chinese culture.”

With an expression of ‘you must believe me’, Lillian didn’t argue with Yuan Zhou about whether he would make the cake or not. She really didn’t think of that. She seemed to be still immersed in the temptation of the delicious pastries just now.
