Yume-iro Pâtissière

Ichigo Amano may be hopelessly clumsy, but her love of cake is unwavering—and it leads to an unexpected turning point when she meets renowned pâtissier Henri Lucas. He notices a remarkable gift in her palate, something Ichigo herself has never recognized, and offers her a place at St. Marie Academy, an elite school devoted to the art of desserts.

Despite being a complete beginner, Henri’s recommendation lands Ichigo in the academy’s top group alongside the celebrated “Sweets Princes”: Sennosuke Andou, master of traditional Japanese confections; Satsuki Hanabusa, known for candied flowers; and Makoto Kashino, a talented chocolatier. With each of them accompanied by a “Sweets Spirit”—fairy companions said to help bring pâtissiers’ dreams to life—they strive toward their ambitions in a demanding, competitive world of sweets.
