Cupcakes that are so good that I can’t bear to eat them

Overview

My son couldn't put it down when he held the cupcakes I made today, but he just wouldn't eat them. I asked him angrily, "Don't the cakes made by my mother taste delicious? Why do I like the cakes bought in the cake shop so much, but I don't eat the cakes I made? If I don't like them, my mother will stop making them in the future." So in the evening I poured a glass of milk and prepared to enjoy my cake. When the little guy saw that I had torn open the paper cup, he cried in anger. I asked puzzledly why. My son finally told the truth because he was too beautiful and he couldn't bear to eat it, and he couldn't bear to let me eat it! So I could only watch my beautiful cake in the oven and continue to sleep! Why Western pastry fascinates so many people is not just because it is delicious. The most important thing is that it gives each of us who are still childlike in nature a more meaningful way to play, a sense of accomplishment that comes from being beautiful and creative! Isn't it?
