In a small town, there is a cozy pastry shop, and the most famous item in the shop is the egg tart. The person who runs this pastry shop and makes these delicious egg tarts is affectionately known as "The King of Egg Tarts".

The King of Egg Tarts is a fat uncle who always wears a smile on his face. His hands seem to have magic, turning the simplest ingredients into mouthwatering egg tarts. Every morning, when the first ray of sunshine shines into the small kitchen of the pastry shop, the King of Egg Tarts starts to get busy.

He carefully mixes the flour and butter together, gently kneading, oh kneading, as if he were touching his dearest treasure. Then, he takes out fresh eggs, separates the yolks from the whites, keeping only the golden yolks.

Those yolks resemble little suns, plunging into the well-mixed flour. After adding sweet milk and a touch of sugar, and stirring everything evenly, the custard mixture resembles flowing gold, emitting an enchanting aroma.

The King of Egg Tarts spoons the custard mixture into the prepared tart shells, which are layered and so crispy that they seem to crumble at the slightest touch.

Then, he placed tray after tray of egg tarts into the oven.

The oven began to emit a warm glow, resembling a tiny, magical world. While waiting for the egg tarts to bake, many little animals had already lined up outside the pastry shop.

There was a cute little squirrel, its tail twitching, and its eyes fixed on the sign of the pastry shop.

There was also a little rabbit, its ears perked up straight, and its little nose constantly sniffing the aroma of the egg tarts in the air.

In no time at all, with a "ding" sound, the egg tarts were baked. The King of Egg Tarts wore thick gloves and took out the baking tray.

The freshly baked egg tarts emitted a rich aroma of milk and eggs.

The crust was incredibly crispy, while the filling was as soft, creamy, and sweet as pudding. The little animals had all bought their favorite egg tarts and sat on the small benches outside the pastry shop, savoring them slowly.

The little squirrel took a bite, and its eyes lit up immediately. With its cheeks puffed out, it mumbled, "The egg tarts made by the King of Egg Tarts are the best egg tarts in the world!"

The little rabbit also nodded repeatedly, its three-lobed mouth filled with egg tart crumbs, yet it continued to stuff them into its mouth. As night fell, the lights of the pastry shop became softer.

The King of Egg Tarts looked at the empty baking tray and showed a content smile on his face.
