內容簡介

The narrow streets of Paris were cloaked in darkness, the only light coming from the flickering glow of lanterns and the faint gleam of moonlight reflecting off cobblestones. Th e scent of freshly baked bread wafted through the cool night air, mingling with the distant murmur of the Seine. The city, though quiet, was alive in its own way, its heartbeat steady even as everything and everyone slumbered.

Inside a small bakery tucked between stone buildings, a boy sat at a wooden table, his fingers smudged with flour and ink. By the dim light of a single candle, he sketched furiously, his hand moving across the paper as if guided by something greater than himself. The drawing took shape: towering arches of spun sugar, delicate columns of caramel, and intricate details that seemed impossible to create yet felt destined to exist.

This boy was Antoine Carême, an orphan who had found refuge in the warmth of ovens and the rhythm of dough. To others, he was merely an apprentice, a helper who swept floors and fetched water. But to himself, he was something more. He was a dreamer, an artist, and, above all, a believer in the transformative power of beauty.

The bakery door creaked open, and the chill of the night spilled in as the baker, Monsieur Bailly, entered. He paused when he saw Antoine hunched over his sketches, his brow furrowed in concentration. "Still awake, boy?" Bailly’s voice was gruff but not unkind. Antoine looked up, startled, and quickly tried to hide his drawings. But Bailly waved a hand, stepping closer to the table. "Let me see," the baker said, his tone softer now. Reluctantly, Antoine slid the paper toward him. Bailly studied the sketches for a long moment, his expression unreadable. Then, with a small nod, he set the paper back down. "You’ve got an eye for detail," Bailly said. "And ambition, too. But too much can burn as hot as an oven. Keep it stoked, boy, but don’t let it consume you." Antoine’s cheeks flushed, but he met the baker’s gaze with unwavering determination. "I want to create something that lasts, Monsieur. Something that people will remember long after the taste has faded." Bailly’s lips twitched into a faint smile. "Then you’ll need more than skill. You’ll need discipline, patience, and the courage to stand tall when society tries to tear you down." The weight of the baker’s words settled over him.

Voiceover (Older Antoine): " at night, in the dim glow of Bailly’s bakery, I made a silent vow. I would carve my name into history-not with ink, but with sugar and fire."

As the candles flicker lower, Antoine returned to his sketches, his hand steady despite the late hour. Each line he drew felt like a step toward a future he could almost grasp. Somewhere beyond the darkness of those Parisian streets lay grandeur, and Antoine Carême was determined to claim his place within it. Antoine Carême’s vision took shape long before he touched his first piece of sugar. As he looked at the crude sketches in his hands, he whispered to himself, "One day, they will stand as tall as kings
