Having decided this, the Tanarian woman headed back to the Carneol headquarters and began the creative process. Although she always tried to make her dishes not only delicious but also visually appealing, preparing such culinary creations held a special place in her heart. It allowed her imagination to run wild, giving each dessert a truly unique and unforgettable look. In a way, it was probably similar to the process described by Erefir, where the redhead created something special and unique.
Unfortunately, it was impossible to create a cake that thematically fit the occasion of receiving a doctoral license, an award for watchmaking, and the emotional state (?) of a cheerleader. At least, not if she wanted the final product to be harmonious and pleasing to the eye. Therefore, deciding that she had already pleased Gillon and Beata with an unexpected gift yesterday, Alaria chose the theme of watches. Fortunately, the elaborate elements of more expensive timepieces could serve well as decorations. And it was not difficult to cast the numbers and hands of the clock from chocolate.
Perhaps, for an inexperienced person, the final product would be just a "normal" cream cake, albeit extremely skillfully made, filled with love for her work and her comrades. But Alaria saw it differently – for her, it was a work of art, a unique creation made for a unique occasion. And it was very pleasant to look at the fruits of her labor. All that remained was to hope that the others would appreciate the effort she had put in. And that the dessert itself would be to their liking. But who doesn't love a good cream cake?

"Hmm, maybe I should suggest that Erefir invite Quant to our little celebration? After all, we are honoring his student. And the cake is exactly in his theme. Although... I don't know. Maybe that would be a little strange."
