022: VELVET LOTUS PUDDING

Velvet Lotus Pudding of the Silent Garden

“In the hush after the storm, the lotus blooms — soft, strong, unbroken.”

Origin Lore — The Myth of Birth

In the Silent Garden beyond the reach of winds, a single lotus bloomed upon still waters. It carried the memory of wholeness, of rivers unbroken, of storms survived. The Velvet Lotus Pudding was born from that bloom — a healing food, crafted to cradle the deepest aches and stitch the soul-garden whole again.

Velvet Lotus Pudding is a sacred dessert: ultra-gut-healing, inflammatory-soothing, emotional-restoring.
A ritual crafted for the gentle warriors who rise each day with soft strength inside.
