The Witch's Bakery Romance Guide: Estelle & Relationship Progression

Who can you romance in The Witch’s Bakery?

You can pursue a romance with Estelle, the sole romance option identified by the publisher. Narrative choices influence how the relationship develops, and Sunny Lab confirms that Lunne and Estelle can become a couple. Follow her available scenes and listen to what each conversation is asking before choosing how Lunne responds.

The developers also explain that Estelle’s relationship with Lunne remains central to the story without romance. Her scenes therefore matter when you choose a friendship-focused playthrough too. For the wider cast, use the character directory.

When and where do you first meet Estelle?

You first meet Estelle in Chapter 2, when she visits Lunne’s bakery. Continue the opening story until that introduction and finish the conversation it presents. Her official profile identifies her as Estelle Berger, a finance expert leading a consulting firm, which gives context to the professional side of her early conversations with Lunne.

Use the beginner guide if you are still learning the daily routine before her introduction. Once she appears, note the next person, place or appointment mentioned by the dialogue.

How do you follow her first appointments and office visits?

Follow the reply that schedules your appointment, then attend the office visit when the story makes it available. Check the appointment information before travelling and finish the conversation on arrival. The published early walkthrough links these visits with a later invitation to eat together, giving you concrete scenes to look for as her story continues.

Which dialogue choices should you pay attention to?

Pay attention to choices that define Lunne’s response to Estelle, because the publisher explicitly ties romance to narrative decisions. Read the current scene before choosing and record the response alongside what happens next. When a Palace asks you to interpret a memory, use that story context to understand the question being presented.

Keep this as a scene log. Mark a result only after you have seen it, and keep observations from different conversations in separate entries.

Which Estelle relationship achievements should you track?

Steam lists Estelle relationship achievements at levels one through four. If you are working toward every Estelle milestone, include the level-four entry in your checklist rather than stopping at level three. Match the achievement’s name and requirement with your progress, and keep following the available character events as they appear.

What should you check when Estelle’s story stops advancing?

Identify the type of instruction you last received: a meeting date, a destination, a Palace interaction or a request to leave and learn more. Check that instruction before repeating the same action. Keep the scene, objective and platform in your notes so a persistent issue can be described clearly when you ask for help.

For a reproducible issue, check the official Steam discussions for an existing report, then include the details that distinguish your scene. The publisher recommends checking existing reports before adding another in its Before You Buy FAQ.
