Football
Bread, in a form of a slab, dough tossed onto the marble's surface and slapped; cake, shaped, settling into a mould and defined; mochi, kneaded into beads and pressed; rice balls, floating atop a sweet syrup. This is the only gravity-defying sweet. Where the condition of a plate is ultimately challenged. And the consumer too, on chocolate custard and powered sugar.
P.S. World Cup where soccer balls were sponsored, like tissues; used and lying around, dirt-cheap like coffee beans or peanuts. Trainers in Olympics used only phenomenally once, spendiferously for the Golden Moment. Treat this golf-ball tenderly, once FIFA's over BreadTalk will have no duties to reintroduce it.
