You have tons of ways to get this dessert!

It’s a cooked dish made in the kitchen of your upgraded farmhouse or cookout kit. But aside from preparing it yourself, you may also obtain it in:

  • Krobus’ Shop every Saturday (50g to 500g).
  • Feast of the Winter Star. Probable gift from your secret gift-giver.
  • Stardrop Saloon’s Rotating Stock (960g).
  • Letter from Mom (only applicable to male characters).
  • Reward for accomplishing Chef’s Bundle in the Bulletin Board (3).
  • Drop from Big Slimes (0.1%). It gives two if you have a Burglar’s Ring.
  • Statue of Endless Fortune every Spring 10, 14, and Summer 4 (some villagers’ birthdays).

Consuming this dessert gives you loads of healing effects, but adding Qi Seasoning increases its benefits by 80%. Here’s a side-by-side comparison of this sweet course with and without the add-on:
