How do you unlock and prepare new recipes?
Explore Paris for recipe books, read what each book offers and try the available recipes in the atelier. The developer confirms books as a recipe source, while the PC review describes atelier preparation adding a treat to the bakery’s options. Keep a note of where you found the recipe and whether you have cooked it.

What ingredients does the baguette recipe use?
The official baguette card lists water, flour, salt and yeast, with a separate quantity for each ingredient. Read the labels before adding anything to the bowl, then follow the active preparation prompt. The table below transcribes this particular card so you can compare it with the recipe displayed in your current game.

| Ingredient | Quantity on the illustrated card |
|---|---|
| Water | 340 g |
| Flour | 500 g |
| Salt | 9 g |
| Yeast | 3 g |

What are the baguette preparation steps?
Follow the card from mixing through kneading, the accelerated rise, shaping and baking. Orio’s magic appears in the mixing and rising stages. Read the active prompt as each stage begins, because the ingredient list and the action you must perform are different parts of the recipe. Continue until the preparation sequence finishes.
| Order on the card | Preparation stage | What to follow |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Mix using Orio’s magic | The mixing interaction and ingredient instructions |
| 2 | Knead the dough | The displayed kneading prompt |
| 3 | Speed up the rise with magic | The current magic interaction |
| 4 | Choose a style | The shaping choice offered by the recipe |
| 5 | Bake | The oven interaction shown by the game |
These stages are visible in the official baguette image. The screenshot does not supply a universal oven temperature or timing rule, so use the indicator displayed during your attempt.
How can you compare two attempts at the same recipe?
Record the stage you were on, the ingredient you selected and the result the game displayed. On the next attempt, change the action you believe caused the problem and compare the result. Keep the recipe card visible when possible, especially when containers look similar.
Why is Orio not producing the bread you need during service?
Check the available dough and the treat being requested before starting another workstation action. The PC review describes Lunne replenishing dough while Orio bakes and sorts the finished goods. Nighttime atelier preparation is a separate recipe activity. Identify which part of that loop needs attention before repeating a full cooking sequence.
| Situation | Check first |
|---|---|
| A dough type is depleted | Replenish the matching service dough at the workstation |
| Demand is concentrated on one treat | Check the available production-priority option |
| You want to practise a newly available recipe | Use the atelier recipe activity when offered |
| Stock appears available but production remains stopped | Note the current prompts, supply display and scene before seeking support |

Where do healing ingredients fit into baking?
Heart Palace exploration supplies a special ingredient connected to the person Lunne is helping. The developer ties that ingredient to bread that heals the person’s emotions. Follow the character’s current story objective and recipe instructions when this happens, keeping the healing ingredient separate from the ordinary quantities listed on a standard baguette card.
| Part of the process | What it contributes |
|---|---|
| Character conversations | Context for the person’s difficulty and current objective |
| Heart Palace exploration | An ingredient connected to that person’s healing |
| The relevant baking step | Bread prepared for the emotional story objective |
Source: the developer’s explanation of Heart Palaces and healing bread. Use the Heart Palace puzzle guide when an obstacle interrupts that part of the story.
Which recipe achievements should you track separately?
Track the first atelier visit, recipe discovery, completed cooking and recipe development separately. Steam assigns different achievements to these tasks, so an unlocked recipe still needs its own preparation and development checks. Make a row for each recipe you actually encounter, then update the relevant columns after playing rather than marking every goal complete together.
| Steam achievement | Listed requirement | Useful checklist entry |
|---|---|---|
| Love is in the oven | Visit the atelier for the first time | First visit completed |
| Gastronomicon | Unlock every recipe | Recipe name and discovery source |
| Cooking Adventure | Cook every recipe at least once | First completed preparation |
| Meilleure Ouvrière de France | Reach maximum level on every recipe | Current recipe level and next requirement |

Keep the game’s recipe books separate from the real-world digital cookbook described in the publisher’s physical-edition announcement. The price and editions guide explains the buying formats, and the game’s own prompts determine your in-game recipe progress.
