Four Pieces of Cakes at JC

These slices of delicious cakes go with the set lunches at JC as desserts. Each only costs ten dollars. Today, let me introduce four kinds of cakes that are served in the restaurant.

Left top corner: It is a chestnut cream cake. The brown pastes of chestnuts are laid on the soft white cream like worms. A blueberry, half a slice of a kiwifruit and a bit of a yellow pear decorate the piece of cake beautifully. The cake is soft, tender and never too sweet.

Right top corner: It is a strawberry cheese cake. The main characters here are the two halves of a large red strawberry. They are outstandingly decorated with a triangular piece of white chocolate with patterns of red hamburgers. The white cheese layer is a few centimetres thick with a hard-crusted base. To me, it is “heavy-weighted”.

Left bottom corner: It is obviously a piece of a chocolate cream cake which satisfies chocolate lovers. The red cherries at the top add a little sweet-to-sour taste to the cake. Next to the cherries are some chocolate pieces. This mass of chocolate look very much like those wood and graphite lead pieces being scraped out of a pencil-sharpener.

Right bottom corner: It is a five-layered cheese cake decorated with three red berries and a piece of white chocolate. This piece of cake is a prism with a cross-section of a right-angled triangle. I think it is a good model for teaching Mathematics.
