Su Yun, Sweetheart

Dai Yuanshan, a modern inheritor of the Suzhou-style pastry-making tradition, transmigrates to Gusu in the Great Yin dynasty and turns her dilapidated ancestral home into Dai Xiang Zhai. Combining traditional pastry-making with modern creativity, she dazzles everyone with Ding Sheng cakes, jujube paste rice cakes, and her original Four Seasons Seasonal Gift Boxes. Soon, her humble shop becomes a favorite of ancient scholars and refined gentlemen.

The Third Prince, Murong Yan, is secretly investigating a corruption case. Haunted by childhood trauma, he detests sweets. The two meet over a pastry dispute, and Dai Yuanshan's rose-infused fermented rice wine cakes unexpectedly heal his damaged sense of taste. As Dai Xiang Zhai's pastries grow famous, business rivals and court conspiracies come swarming in.

Amid the warmth of traditional steaming ovens and the undercurrents of political intrigue, clues to unsolved cases hide in carved pastry molds. This couple, worlds apart in status, grow close and stand by each other through garden scenery and Kunqu opera, breathing new life into the craftsmanship of Suzhou-style pastries amid the interweaving of power and tenderness.
