I consider myself somewhat gentle, fragile and simplistic and this food represents what I felt like. My girlfriend also says I remind her of one, which has made me appreciate it more. The concept of a raindrop on a leaf, something so simple and natural, brings me satisfaction and gives me a break from more detailed foods.
Something I also really like is that you can customize these cakes to your liking! Not every raindrop cake has to be transparent. You can use different flavors or items.
