+++++++++++++{rules} +++++++++++++{we don't have a lot of rules, so please respect the ones we do have} +++++++++++++for roleplay we follow the daisy code, linked above +++++++++++++for in-shop conduct we just ask that you not be a d**k +++++++++++++rules are, of course, subject to change at any time
+++++++++++++{f.a.q.} +++++++++++++what is a pastry? +++++++++++++pastries are a food item that has been baked with magic sugar and has been brought to life. they change into little +++++++++++++pastry people after a certain amount of time and are able to communicate with each other as well as with gaians. +++++++++++++for a more detailed answer, please visit this thread in the guild.
+++++++++++++can a pastry breed? +++++++++++++yes they can. any couple can breed regardless of gender once both parties have reach the third stage. this thread +++++++++++++in the guild addresses this subject.
+++++++++++++can I co-own a pastry? +++++++++++++unfortunately you cannot - one parent can do just fine with these wonderful pastries.
+++++++++++++can I eat a pastry? +++++++++++++we would prefer if people did not eat the pastries from this bakery. they are tiny people with thoughts and feelings +++++++++++++of their own. it would be like eating a family pet or someone's child.
+++++++++++++do you take bribes or do pet trades? +++++++++++++we do take bribes at this moment - you can find more information on the various ways to acquire a pastry in the +++++++++++++post discussing sales information below.
+++++++++++++may I direct link the image from your server? +++++++++++++after your pastry has finished growing we would prefer if you saved your pastry to your own image host/server so as +++++++++++++not to deplete our bandwidth. there will always be a copy of your pet on our server so if you misplace the image we +++++++++++++can give it to you again.
+++++++++++++where do i go if i have any questions, comments, or concerns? +++++++++++++please visit this thread in our guild forum if you need to ask us anything not addressed in this faq

{pastry types} {doughnuts, tea/coffee, tarts, pies, muffins, and cupcakes}
+++++++++++++{stage one:} the initial pastry stage. the common types of pastries (with fixed lineart for the first stage) are +++++++++++++doughnuts, tea/coffee, tarts, pies, muffins, and cupcakes. they don't really... do much right now. +++++++++++++{stage two:} surprise! your pastry turned into a cute little person. they're really influenced by their initial +++++++++++++stage at this point, so expect doughnuts to be a little bit pudgy, and tea to be a little serene. (this stage also +++++++++++++has fixed lineart) +++++++++++++{stage three:} at stage three your pastry is finally fully grown! now your pastries have wholly embraced their +++++++++++++own personalities, and some of them are quite energetic. others are finally ready to begin taking care of +++++++++++++little pastries of their own. (this stage has custom lineart) +++++++++++++{stage four:} wh-what? where did you hear about a fourth, completely customized stage that may or may +++++++++++++not have something to do with the illustrious cupcake court?
