we shall heal our wounds, collect our dead
Having sent his projection off on its errand with a perplexed sort of smile at Dupnin, Ronin focuses on the much more important task at hand: cake tasting. It isn't his first time ordering from Whisk Takers, but it's his first time organising something as grand as a birthday cake for the Queen of Torchline, and hopefully John Candle will be pleased to realise that the Knight is just as serious as he is when it comes to flavour combinations.
Ronin starts with a classic - chocolate and hazelnut - and whilst he doesn't dislike it one bit, it feels a little heavy for a luau. The second tasting of lemon and raspberry is very close, and he even goes back for a second bite to determine whether he really needs to try anything else, before ultimately opting to play it safe. It's a decision he doesn't regret in the end. Announcing, "That's the one!" to John with a snap of his fingers, he settles on what basically turns out to be an edible version of a piña colada.
That is to say, Flora's birthday cake will be a tall, colourful creation flavoured with coconut rum, brown sugar and pineapple juice, with a smattering of small pineapple upsidedown cupcakes for snacking on or leftovers. Feeling particularly successful, Ronin leaves the cake shop and heads straight for more food-themed fun: catering.
Ronin settles on a colourful cake (see image for inspo) flavouered with coconut rum, brown sugar and pineapple juice, along with a collection of pineapple upsidedown cupcakes to go with it.
He chooses catering next!
