Maybe Daisy would share some with him when it was ready?
"Unfortunately, I didn't inherit her cooking skills," he said with a small self-deprecating laugh. If he didn't know how to cook with magic, he probably would've starved to death by now! He nodded; he could understand being nervous about cooking. No matter how many times he cooked with magic, there was always that fear in the back of his mind that the dish would quite literally blow up in his face. He watched with a beam as Daisy continued her work. "It looks like you're doing a great job so far!" he said. "Let me know if you need help with anything."
"I hope this turns out well and if it does, I'll be sure to give you a nice slice with some cream on top," Daisy said to Professor Marchand with a smile as she turned the oven on to 190 degrees Celsius. Next was the French pastry. Daisy aimed her wand at the pastry sitting to one side and said,
"Accio," so that it was sitting in front of her. She then passed her wand over the surface of the pastry, saying,
"Sternuntur," at the same time to roll out her dough and then Daisy used
"Diffindo," to cut a circle of pastry that in size was slightly larger than the pan. She then carefully used her wand to cover the pan with the pastry, tucking any excess pastry underneath and placing the pan onto a baking tray.
Daisy then grabbed some oven mitts and opened the door of the now preheated oven before placing the tray in the oven and closing the door. She then waited for the Tarte Tatin to cook as she waved her wand and said a couple of spells to clean and put away any equipment/ingredients that she no longer needed to use back where they belonged.
