Market Friday: The cake shop

In as much I love eating cakes, I haven’t had one since my birthday four month ago. Recently I had the urge to eat cake, it was so much and when I crave for food like that l like to consume it instantly, I mean quench the craving. Craving comes naturally, it could be food or something else...just a severe urge that the body want immediately for satisfaction, and when satisfaction comes, the body tends to relax.

My birthday cake

My craving for cake took me to a cake shop around my area. I love the taste of my birthday cake, it was so yummy and soft, it was so good and perfect as I wanted it. It was baked by a baker down town. But this particular cake shop always display nice looking cakes on their show glass and every time I pass through the shop my eyes are always passing through the displayed cakes but my stomach wasn’t ready for it.

Yesterday evening, I wanted to have a taste of cake, so I decided to stop by the shop. They had Cup cakes with different flavors and other portions of cakes. I ask the cashier how much each of the cost, she told me the Cup cakes was 70 cents and the other diced cakes was 2$ which was quite expensive she noticed my reaction and said it’s the price hike on ingredients from the supplier.


I wanted two, but I do not know how it would taste, then I asked her to give me one first just to have a taste of it. Before then, she has been glorifying how good the cake is because I told her if it’s not good I wouldn’t come back to the shop, but she insisted I will like it. She passed one portion to me from the show glass, as it got to me, I could feel how hard it was...not like how I love my cake, I wasn’t pleased with the hardness of the cake, but I thought it would taste good too so I took a bite, it was just as hard as it look.

The cake I bought

I have touched the cake and even had a taste of it, I had to pay for it (2$ gone Lol) definitely I gave the cashier my review and it wasn’t a good one, she apologized to me and I went away. Thank God I didn’t buy the two cakes Lol. I got home and kept the remaining part of the cake in my fridge and that was how my craving died without it satisfaction.
