I wanted to like this one. It's a grumpy/sunshine dynamic and it has baking in it, two of my favorite things. Unfortunately, the grumpy is just boring if not toxic, and the sunshine could do much better.
I wanted to enjoy the recipes but there was so much fatphobia and so much emphasis on them being low calorie that I skipped through most of it.
Other than Gon and the fujoshi girl (who has actual character development and some important things to impart on a straight audience), I found the characters unpleasant and I can't keep reading the series, which is a shame.
