	I don't root for Kenmare, but theirs sounds particularly delicious. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you! It is really delicious, and very different from the original coffee and chocolate opera cake. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh my god! These sound delicious. I'll take one of everything! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you! Not to brag, but some of descriptions really don't do the taste justice. I'll have samplers sent to the bookshop tomorrow morning, give your customers something else to try? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	How did you know the absolute exact cake I'd pick for myself if I got to pick for Puddlemere?? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-19 07:20 am UTC (link)
	It's my super secret Maître Pâtissier super skill. Or maybe you've just been a customer for long enough that I know your preferences by now. I'll let you decide. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I guess there IS a benefit to going to a sweet shop near daily, even if my coach tends to disagree with the possibility of there being any. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-21 06:06 am UTC (link)
	Always! Did you ever doubt it? Private to Oliver: You could always tell your coach it's the perfect incentive to put in extra effort during training to work off those visits. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There was a moment... Melinda Oh, he complains, but I don't give him any reason to. I'd dare you to find any extra weight on me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I may not be Gryffindor, but that's a dare I might take you up on some day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gryffindor doesn't have a monopoly on dares, do they? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Can't cake just be cake? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-19 07:22 am UTC (link)
	Cake is just cake, some just have other names, tastes and textures than others, which is why we differentiate them. After all, men aren't just men either, are they? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dark_blaise 2014-08-19 11:33 am UTC (link)
	What I meant was can't those lovely designs stand on their own without being linked to a team? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-19 11:41 am UTC (link)
	Indeed they can. Sometimes it's just fun to combine, re-combine and rethink traditional recipes into a celebration of a sporting event. Besides, I consider this a bit of a test run and should some of the cakes receive particularly positive feedback, would consider adding them to the regular menu, without the Quidditch connection. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dark_blaise 2014-08-19 03:14 pm UTC (link)
	Is that possible without the bias of team connection? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-19 03:16 pm UTC (link)
	Believe it or not, but there are people who don't follow Quidditch. Personally, I simply found inspiration in the team colours. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dark_blaise 2014-08-19 03:21 pm UTC (link)
	I've never really cared too much about who wins except when I was on the pitch. I suppose that makes me a terrible Quidditch fan. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Of course, you're welcome to come in for a blind test and try them for yourself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dark_blaise 2014-08-19 03:24 pm UTC (link)
	As tempting as that is I'm afraid that I'd have to starve myself for the next week just to keep the weight at bay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think I might have to try a few of these! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-19 03:24 pm UTC (link)
	They'll be ready when I open in the morning, and you're always welcome to stop by. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh why oh why is the Tutshill cake white chocolate? You owe me, Bobbin. I mean, it's cheesecake, which is the best thing ever... I might have to try it, you might have twisted my arm. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-19 07:07 pm UTC (link)
	Because the white chocolate cheesecake has proven quite popular in the past. Private to Cho: But did you really think I wouldn't make a Cho friendly Tutshill cake? Check the cooler on the rooftop. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
