Chapter 744: Chapter 639: Simple and Delicious—Sweet Potato, Yam, and Coconut Cake

But today, it’s really happening!

If it’s really that simple, going back and claiming to have learned from a world-class dessert master wouldn’t be an exaggeration, right?

"Boss Wang, don’t trick me. If it’s really that simple, I have to carry a bag of sweet potatoes back before I leave today."

"Me too. Watching Boss Wang make desserts makes my hands itch. If it’s really that easy, I definitely want to try it."

Wang Fan promised, "Don’t worry, it’s really simple. Just watch."

As he spoke, he had already filled another mold, placed the second one, and brought the first mold over.

"In the Northeast, the low temperature solidifies the pieces. If you’re going back South, just put it in the fridge for an hour."

Without lifting the cling film on top, he inverted the mold, tapped it gently, and lifted it. The half-finished sweet potato and yam coconut cake appeared on the board, with the cling film serving as the perfect tablecloth.

The crowd widened their eyes, curious to see what kind of dessert such a simple process would produce.

On the board was a rectangular cake, with golden sweet potato puree sandwiched between two layers of white yam puree.

The low temperature had solidified the sweet potato and yam puree, and the smooth surface slightly reflected the sunlight.

Wang Fan picked up a nearby dinner knife and quickly sliced it into almost equal small pieces: "This sword skill you probably can’t master, but for this small thing, the sword skill is the least useful. No matter how you cut it, it tastes the same."

He placed the small pieces on a tray, took out a packet of coconut flakes, tore it open, and scattered it directly over the cake.

The snow-white, crystal-clear coconut flakes fell, like a localized snowfall over the cake, adorning it cutely.

"Just choose this kind of pure white natural coconut flesh processed flakes. Those golden ones have added egg yolk and butter, which are very high in calories. Eating too much makes you gain weight. The calorie count for this piece is very low, so you can eat it without worry. Moreover, sweet potatoes are high in dietary fiber, aiding digestion."

Whether it’s yam or sweet potato, neither is high in calories, and the icing sugar added to the yam is just enough to enhance the flavor.

Hearing him say this, the diners were even happier. Gaining weight over the holidays isn’t just talk, with all the delicious food in front of them, who can resist?

Such considerate desserts are always welcome!

After scattering the coconut flakes, Wang Fan picked up the tray and gently shook it, causing the cake on the tray to flip back and forth. The coconut flakes not sticking firmly fell off and quickly adhered to the other cakes, soon covering all four sides with pristine white coconut flakes.

"Now it’s ready to eat."

After speaking, he put on disposable gloves, took one, and reached back over his shoulder.

As soon as his arm was in position, he felt a warm breath on his hand, and then it felt lighter as the just-made sweet potato and yam coconut cake went into Zhuo Qianqian’s mouth.

Such a harmonious and warm scene made many diners genuinely envious.

Although being passively fed dog food once again, such a beautiful scene still left people feeling delighted.

Life, work, family—problems arise in all sorts, making many people seal themselves within their own little worlds. Not to mention the opposite sex, they don’t even dare to interact with people.

But just because it’s buried deep in their hearts doesn’t mean they don’t need such emotions.

This cake wasn’t small. After eating it, Zhuo Qianqian’s cheeks puffed up, making her already slightly chubby face appear even rounder.

The way she chewed resembled a little hamster. After swallowing the cake, Zhuo Qianqian spoke: "The moment you bite into the cake, the rich coconut milk flavor from the coconut flakes is overwhelming. Then the sweet aroma of sweet potatoes and the freshness of yams emerge, perfectly blending with the coconut fragrance.

With one bite, the crispy little crystal-like coconut flakes between the teeth feel interesting. The yam has a slight crunch and springiness, while the sweet potato is completely soft and glutinous, with a fine, smooth texture.

Chewing the yam provides a subtly sweet flavor, and when the sweet and glutinous taste of sweet potatoes merges in, a natural sweetness emerges. The coconut flakes add some crispiness, making each chew more fragrant and enticing."

She enthusiastically gave a thumbs-up and praised, "It’s very successful, and the taste is absolutely perfect. Boss is the best!"

Hiss...

As soon as Zhuo Qianqian finished speaking, many people took a sharp intake of breath. Seeing the sweet potato and yam coconut cake didn’t invoke such a reaction, but listening to her description, many couldn’t help but swallow involuntarily.

The portrayal was just too vivid!

While listening to the crisp and pleasing sound, it felt as if there was a piece of cake in one’s mouth, releasing the fragrance of coconut milk, yam, and sweet potato with each chew.

"The boss and his wife really make a perfect pair. Boss Wang is responsible for the making, and his wife is responsible for the storytelling."

"Just now, it felt like an 8D surround sound—it really felt like I ate a piece myself."

"I initially wanted to buy a little for a taste test, but now I know my little wallet will be crying in pain."

Wang Fan couldn’t help but give Zhuo Qianqian a thumbs-up in admiration. He could taste everything she described, but he couldn’t express it.

Seeing Wang Fan’s expression, Zhuo Qianqian looked quite pleased. She couldn’t do this before, but her teacher was a world-class gourmet. After learning a little and trying it out a few times, the effect was impressive.

Today, many people were leaving Erbin. After buying the last batch of desserts from Wang Fan for the year, many said their goodbyes and thanked him for the care he’d provided over this period.

No one is a fool. How Wang Fan treated them was perfectly reflected in the delicious food he made.

Genuine ingredients were one thing, but most importantly, it was the incredibly reasonable price, so down-to-earth many couldn’t believe it, combined with the taste that could make your taste buds swoon!

"Goodbye, Boss Wang. Come visit us in Guangxi when you can. While we can’t promise anything, but the beautiful scenery and fruit are guaranteed—I recommend you come before Qingming Festival, and you can even join us in finding our grandpa."

"Visit us in Hubei. We also have many beautiful sceneries, including Shennongjia."

"You must come to Hunan, where Hunan cuisine is the best in the world!"

"Come to Henan. Our specialties are gold and diamonds, and we are also a well-known vegetable province."

"Shaanxi’s pasta is the best in the world! Be sure to visit us in Shaanxi. In Xi’an, you can take the subway to see archaeological sites, which is unique nationwide."

Faced with enthusiastic diner invitations, Wang Fan smiled and responded to each one until he sent off the last customer. He felt like his face was almost stiff from smiling.

"Whew!"

He let out a long breath of relief, stretched his body, and took in a deep breath of cool air, finally feeling relaxed.

"Let’s go home and prepare dinner."

"Oh yeah!"

Hearing Wang Fan’s words made Zhuo Qianqian and the others cheer joyfully, as they had been craving this feast for days. Hearing it made the hunger in their stomachs itch eagerly.

"By the way, Zhaofeng, why don’t you ask your uncle and aunt if they have plans for the evening? If not, they can simply come to our place to eat as well. It won’t taste as good if we make it and then take it over since it’s already cooled down, and it’s more lively with more people."

Liu Zhaofeng nodded and replied, "Okay, I’ll ask them now."

In the North, New Year’s Eve isn’t just for family gatherings; sometimes, particularly close families gather to eat and drink together.

His uncle frequently interacted with Liu’s father, and he was good friends with Liu’s siblings, so inviting them over to eat wasn’t presumptuous.

First, let Liu Zhaofeng check if they have plans, then go with the siblings to invite them over properly.
