How To Complete The Sage Of Sweets
There are six stages to this quest, each requiring that you craft a certain item.
Butter x1
Honey x1
Ice Cream x1
Bread Loaves, Butter, and Ice Cream must be cooked separately or found in the wild. If you need ingredients, though, they can be purchased from any Teahouse you place in a Village.

Strawberries x1
As with previous dishes, you’ll need higher-level and better quality ingredients to hit Level 3 here. You can use the Sacred Sword method on the Strawberries, and ensure you’re using the best Milk from the most difficult Buffamoo enemies you have access to to complete this.
