I never thought that this manga would practically make me associate bears with cozy tea parties and cakes.

Iyashikei is all about those fuzzy feelings.

Afaik shortcake is called shortening because it's made with shortening, but that's as far as I know about the matter.

Shortcake is a type of cake. I'm not sure how to really describe it all that well but it's like a more cakey scone. It's kind of, sorta like a scone but made with eggs and more sugar so it's not as dry, has a tighter crumble, and sweeter. But nowadays people tend to make "strawberry shortcakes" with something more akin to a sponge cake than shortcake.

Or more precisely, shortcake has a crumblier texture than normal cake due to adding more fats such as butter or lard.

Shortening is just the generic term for fats that are solid at room temperature (like butter and lard) that you'd use to get a crumblier texture in baked goods, so it would also cover things like margarine and fats made out of vegetable oils.

Basically anything "short" in baking: shortcrust, shortbread, shortcake, and shortening has to do with using fats to give things a crumbly texture.

And why do I have a feeling, that by the time the recipe flowed to Japan, it has nothing to do with whatever the original "shortening" ment.
As per usual, when food travels the globe.

[Oeconomist]

The conjunction for comparisons is “than”. (“more suited as a chef than as an adventurer”)

The word “then” is principally an adverb (“then he ran”) derived from use as a noun, though it can also serve as an adjective (“my then girlfriend”).

The word “short” in this case means brittle or crumbly.

From sad experience. Indeed, Japanese shortcake is fluffy.
