I loved Kitchen Princess, so I just had to read sweet little novel by the author of the manga series. It feels like the manga series, with first person narration by Najika. The title conflict (helping a classmate's grandmother rediscover a cake she'd enjoyed as a young woman) is sweet and nicely done, even if the ending is a little abrupt and spoiled by the title, which I suspect is an unintended side effect of the translation. I didn't like it quite as much as I had the manga series, but it was still a fun, quick read.
