Chapter 241 - 241 Tasting Cake
241 Tasting Cake
The cake was cut into neat sections, revealing the yellowish cake inside.
Everyone swallowed their saliva.
Mother Jian divided the cake into more than ten portions and gave them a small plate. She smiled and said, “Come and have a taste.”
The workers were a little hesitant. Although they really wanted to eat it, it was obvious that the cake was very expensive. They were also a little embarrassed.
Mother Liu said, “Since it’s given to you by Madam Jian, you can eat it. It’s fine.”
The waiters immediately smiled embarrassedly and received it cautiously. “Thank you, Madam Jian.”
Mother Jian shook her head and said with a smile, “It’s fine.”
One of the waiters carefully smelled the sweet smell and looked at Mother Jian and Mother Liu. He mustered his courage and asked, “Boss, Madam Jian, can I keep it for my family to eat?”
Mother Jian was stunned and smiled. “Of course, you can. You can do whatever you want with it.”
She knew what these waiters were thinking. If she got any delicious food, she would also want to take it home for her children to eat.
That waiter immediately beamed with joy. He carefully put the cake away and thanked excitedly, “Thank you, Madam Jian. Thank you, Boss!”
When the other waiters heard this, they also reluctantly put down the cake and prepared to take it home for their families to eat.
There were a total of five waiters in the shop. After giving them five pieces, there were still seven pieces left on the table.
Mother Liu sent the waiters away and let them go to work. Then, she picked up a piece of cake and gently sniffed it. She smiled and said, “This taste is really sweet. I can’t bear to eat it.”
“Sister Liu, please try it. You can give me some advice after eating it. I want to see if there are any areas that need to be improved.”
Mother Liu nodded and took a bite carefully. Her eyes lit up, she said in surprise, “This is really delicious! It’s so sweet and fragrant! I’ve never tasted such a delicious taste before! I think if you can open the shop directly, the business will definitely be booming. Why would you need to let me sell it for a few years?”
After saying that, she tasted the taste in her mouth carefully. “What is this white one made of? It’s sweet and smooth. It’s really delicious!”
Mama Jian was very happy, she smiled and said, “If it’s delicious, then you should eat more. That white one is made of milk. There’s a lot of sugar in it. There’s also eggs and flour. It’s definitely delicious. I’ve also made other things. You can try it later.”
Mother Liu did not have the time to talk to her. The taste in her mouth was so delicious that it could make her taste better!
She could not wait to finish all the cakes in her hand. Even the cream at the bottom of the plate was scraped clean.
“It’s really delicious! I’m afraid there’s no dessert shop in Shifeng County that can cook as well as you. The taste is also very special. If you sell it here, I’ll still make a profit!”
Mother Jian smiled shyly and recalled Jian Qingqing’s request. She asked, “Who are the customers who come to eat here? My big sister said that this cake is going to be very expensive. I want to see how their general consumption is so that I can set the price.”
Mother Liu smiled and said, “Don’t worry about that. My shop is indebted to your Qingqing for selling us the chili sauce. This is the only one in Shifeng County! Those old masters and ladies love to come to my house to eat. The private rooms upstairs have not been empty since dinner time. When the time comes, I will sell this cake to the old masters and ladies in the private rooms.”
After saying that, she looked left and right. There were no customers here yet. However, she still lowered her voice and said, “You just need to set the price higher. Those old masters are rich! We can survive for a year on five taels of silver, but it will not be enough for a meal for them!”
