Five Stories: The Second Edition Chocolate Is Not Sweet

"You noticed the boulder. It is."

Pulla laughed niggly at Natalie, who calmly analyzed the chocolate and cheesecake.

"So this isn't a recipe for the reign ceremony, is it?"

"Oh, of course there's a balance between the two layers of flavor. The texture, the balance of colors, everything is not sophisticated enough. I can't make it."

"You'll still be detained, won't you? So is it chocolate ice cream after all"

"Of course it's sweet, but when they say that that's the best cacaurus treat..."

"Well, it's not only rich, it's fragrance."

"That's right. Ice cream is great, but the taste of cocoa is really blurry. However, this time, apart from that, there is something about Raizouko. It's troubling."

I saw a rectangular box where Prla was in the kitchen's special seat.

"With that said, I wonder what he's doing"

"Didn't you hear about when Shelley came?

"... not that time. Just a little. When I got on board with Raizouko's suggestions, I saw him drinking in the daytime with Mathilde and Meer."

After fooling around about Dalgan, Prla remembers Shelley, who was depressed to remember.

"Well, when I'm having a hard time, I wonder if it's necessary to serve alcohol from daytime with a chilled white wine"

"Master Alfina's story says he drank it because he wasted his failures. What are you going to do with sugar? He didn't tell me because he had no certainty."

"Well, it's Vinder. You can't even serve wine that's just chilled. Thanks to you, Lilka, who's in charge of the appetizer, is rubbing her mind."

"There's a combination with an aperitif."

It is common sense that there is no way his junior will do anything normal. shared by all of them.

"It was a lot of help today. Well, I'll give it a try."

Prla stood up with the cookware in her hand. We're busy with our daily work alone, so it's really nighttime to develop a new menu. Yesterday the artisans, who were accompanied by an irregular new menu made with cream cheese, are returning early today.

"Can I help you if you like"

Natalie said when she saw the gallant kitchen.

"But..."

Plura hesitated when she looked out the darkened window.

"I'm not in charge this time. Given the start of this one, I need to help a little."

That's what Natalie said and laughed nicely.

"Besides, I'm interested in how to use Raizooko. You see, when you solidify gelatine, temperature matters."

He knew that Reyzouko, who was supposed to turn to Natalie, was behind on Shelley's proposed improvements.

"Well, let me ask you a favor"

Prla nodded.

"Would you thoughtfully increase the amount of chocolate?"

Two people across the kitchen table. Discuss basic policies first.

"That makes the black darker and the colors beautiful. There's a problem with the palate."

"I see. You're getting too stiff. Confectionery is important to the touch of the tongue."

The two think.

"If you increase the percentage of cocaurus but just maintain the softness of ice cream, there is a way. Look, it's just like that."

"That's the cheese Lilka brought."

"Oh. I originally use the cream for chocolate. However, it is important to note that if you put too much in it, it will no longer solidify. The balance around here is subtle."

Pulra said, recalling three years of trial and error, referring to what could not even be Ricardo's idea: "I want a treat that solidifies Cacaurus".

"I see. But that's because it's chocolate, right?"

"Right. Would ice cream freeze it? All right, let's increase the cream."

…………

"You can't. The texture is still sacrificed."

Plura shook her head at the moist texture.

"No matter how rich it is, ice cream is ice cream. Mouthpaste is important, isn't it? I need you to untie me more."

"For the cream, I've already reduced the milk, so it's hard..."

…………

"You can't."

"You can't. Too hard. More cream to soften..."

"There's nothing to reduce anymore."

…………

At a table lined with prototype balls, the two faced each other. When the store accountant sees it, it looks like he's going to collapse, but the results haven't improved. On the contrary......

"Somehow, this isn't ice cream anymore, is it?"

"... sure"

Natalie nods, too, with a black, little shard in her mouth. There is something about it being turned down to freeze quickly, but it has to melt in your mouth as if it were a candy.

Yes, it's the result of a mean pursuit on the way. Had it been for his craftsman, he would have bitterly complained about how he hadn't noticed until so much.

"If it smells like cocaurus, you pass."

Natalie told me to deceive you. That would be, this is almost chocolate already. But Prla was hazy.

"Not ice cream!?

Prla stands still to see the latest prototype. Then, when the ingredients are mixed together in the same proportion, they are put in the elongated one and head to the back of the kitchen.

"What do you do?"

"When I was making chocolate, the reason I limited the amount of cream was to solidify it properly. Even then, it was summer."

Prla opened the door under Raizouko.

"With this, we might be able to achieve the mouth melting we gave up then"

"............ I see"

Natalie saw the white cream cheese driven to the edge of the table.

"Then maybe you don't have to be sweet. Then why don't you make it taste more like an adult?"

Natalie pointed to Sherry's souvenir and distilled liquor for cooking.

"Hehe, I'm glad you're here. My men are stopping it."

"Mostly in a cost sense, right?"

The two laughed creepily at each other. There, there is no strict thought left that should be essential for confectionery making.

Chun-chun.

I can hear the birds chirping from the outside. Inside the room with the morning sun slipping through the window was a sweet air of alcohol mixing, with men and women lying on their bodies together overnight.

On a table lined with prototypes, different from each other.

"In the end..."

"... Yes"

"There were so many things you didn't need."

"Right. I didn't even need an egg."

"Glad we're low on sugar too"

"There's still room for debate there though. Well, I appreciate the fact that the scent of cocaurus lives to its fullest."

"I wonder if the last prototype has hardened."

Noronoro and a pulla with an upper body removed a shallow rectangular mould from Raizouko. Half black, half green black rectangle. He carefully put a knife in the black one and cut it into dice shapes. I offered Natalie when I pinched up one small cube. Natalie took it by mouth.

Natalie's cheeks loosened and she had a happy exhale.

"Mr. Plura too......"

When Natalie cut the green one in the same way, she stretched her fingers toward Prla.

"Good morning Branch Manager................... Excuse me!!

That's when the kitchen door opened. Craftsmen who came first thing in the morning to discipline. He hastily closed the door to the look of his boss pushing chocolate into his mouth with Natalie's finger.

It is after Natalie returns. Placing his hand on his forehead and listening to his boss's interpretation like he was talking to himself, "At that time, at dawn all night..." the craftsman tastes the new chocolate.

"The chocolate one." It wasn't that sweet.

That, he said, was his feeling.
