Character EDITORIAL

A bakery smells warm, toasty and sweet, with fresh bread, browned crust, butter, sugar and a soft trace of flour in the air.

Words: baked, warm, toasted, sweet. Families: Temperature and texture, Sweet, fruity and floral.

States: baked (EDITORIAL). A state says how an entry is met, such as wet, aged or roasted. It does not create a new smell, and it adds no scientific fact by itself: states marked EDITORIAL come from the entry's own records, and only those marked VERIFIED are reported by a VERIFIED claim.

Met in: Bakery, Street.
