It is this world where sugar is expensive, but it is not just expensive and doesn't exist. The fruits were known to be sweetly boiled with honey, and those boiled using sugar instead of honey. It's just... even so, it was rare that they were made of white sugar that was as pure as Crowe offered them.

In other words, there were not so many that left the original colour of the fruit vivid, and there was no store with different types of jams before that. Because the jam itself does not require otherwise difficult work, but without sufficient resources, the sugar of the ingredients could not be secured.

Candied alone would have more than enough impact, but with all the colorful jams, the store's reputation would be even better. Crowe had no intention of being clueless in this regard.

"... hey, is this really the sugar you use for jams?

A pot filled with white, shining granulated sugar is placed in front of an elf woman with a bewildered look.

"Oh, that's for sure. We've also made sure many times that in order to extract fruit flavours and colors without mixing extra flavours and colors, we need to use pure sugar."

Explained with a slightly tired look is a young man who seems to have been pushed to head this team.

"But... are you insane? That's not enough sugar, ten gold coins, is it?

"We do have what we sell, but we have as many spiritualists to offer us."

Here the man in charge had one deep sigh (one). There is no reason why I am not confused by the fact that he and his previous values have been turned over from the ground up.

"Well... when I sell it, they pack it in small bottles and sell it in small pieces, so I guess it won't be that lame a story. However, if you don't make a large quantity when you make it, the taste and quality won't be constant."

When I found out, the women went to work in such a way as to give up and say he was on the job.

"... are you sure about this amount?

"That's what the note says. It's basically cooked in sugar the same weight as the ingredients. It seems to add and subtract a bit depending on the taste of the ingredients' fruit."

In front of a pile of pure white granulated sugar, a bunch of women with a cramped expression.

"I don't have much sugar fruit this time, so it's about prototype... but if I make this for the ceremony, it'll be amazing..."

"Hey, hey, Mina. I've been wondering about the large bottle lined up behind the cod..."

"Finn, don't worry about it. Are you sure you can't do this?

"Ugh, yeah, I got it."

With all the enlightened expressions, the women put the beautifully washed sugar fruit in a pan with sugar. Leave it for a while and wait for the juice to seep out of the fruit and set it on fire.

"All you have to do is take an ac and be careful not to burn it."

"What do you do with the seeds?

"It's like boiling for a while and then filtering. That's what other jams do because they seem better for the noblemen."

"What other jam?

"Eh... the seeds seem to get in the way... Yamagata... and then Jules."

"I can jam it..."

"It looks like you can do most of the sour stuff, right?

In another squad, they all held their heads when they saw the material they were instructed to jam.

"Rose (Bulb) Petals... do you jam something like that...?

"Food... isn't it?

"I don't think it's a bad idea to eat... but it's not what you get in your stomach."

I know they make wild rose red fruit into herbal tea, and they drink it a lot. In other words, even the tea stand served at the May Festival was a highly popular menu. But no way, I never thought of eating the petals themselves...

Fortunately, this wild rose adds a large number of small but deep red flowers, so it looks like you can make jam as long as you collect petals.

"... it's still blooming, isn't it?

"Maybe... there are a few places I can think of..."

To carry out the work assigned to them, they went to pick the roses.
