Homemade Cooking Ingredients

A 45-degree angle view of a high-end, warm kitchen, bathed in soft, golden light. In the foreground, the lower body of a baker, wearing a flour-dusted apron, is seen kneading dough with both hands on a large, rich wooden table. The baker's hands press and fold the dough gently, showcasing the tactile nature of the process. Surrounding the baker are several bowls and plates filled with ingredients: A bowl of flour sits beside a dish of compound margarine, soft and ready for mixing. A plate holds a mound of sugar, and a small glass jar of orange peel zest adds a pop of vibrant color. A delicate glass dish contains smooth, rich whipping cream, while a ceramic bowl holds a blend of baking powder and milk powder. A pinch of salt rests in a tiny dish, and a small bottle of coffee essence sits nearby, its dark color contrasting against the lighter ingredients. The table is a beautiful wooden surface, slightly worn, with the light glinting off the bowls and the warm tones of the ingredients.
