As complex and involved as some of these recipes are, there are others that are...well, maybe not AS bad, but bad enough that I'm not going to ever willingly attempt them because of the demands on space and supplies and time (and just plain good luck). I'm thinking of the Chocolate Sundae in the Ice Creamery, the White Truffle Risotto in the Kitchen, the Wild Bouquet and the Romantic Bouquet in the Floral Shop, and the Almond Tea Service in the Bed and Breakfast. All of them require a lot of time OR a lot of luck, and I'm going to discard any orders that require a lot of these.
I'd suggest making as much Watermelon Punch (with the Square Watermelons) as you can, whenever your Kitchen is free to use, and stockpile that for whenever you need to making something else. That way it won't be as intimidating (or depressing) to contemplate.
