Great readLoved it. Sad I finished it. Not the typical manga story line. Wholesome. Wish there was more like this out there

nice and wholesomeReading Salt & Pepper and Pudding felt like a warm hug on a quiet day. It's a sweet, slow-paced slice-of-life story that gently explores relationships, self-growth, and the comfort of everyday routines. The characters—each with their quirks—feel real and grounded, and there's something incredibly soothing about watching them connect over simple meals and moments.
What stood out to me most was the subtle emotional depth. It doesn’t try to be dramatic or flashy, but instead builds intimacy through soft dialogue and expressions. The art style complements that feeling perfectly—clean and expressive, almost like flipping through a cozy illustrated diary.
If you’re into calming stories with a touch of introspective warmth, this manga is a hidden gem.

Cute, wholesome age gap, “fake” marriage romanceI’m embarrassed it took me 14 chapters to figure out why it was called Salt & Pepper and Custard T_T Very cute story with age gap and a fake marriage that turns to real love tropes. Good pacing, and underlying conflicts are organic and flow realistically between each, instead of the pitfalls some manga face where each conflict has to be bigger and more devastating than the last.

Black Sesame Salt and Custard PuddingHaving been licensed on another manga streaming service, it was surprising to see this as a mangaplaza original. At first, the characters seem mismatched, but there's a lot more in store for them!

Getting drunk and getting married?! It feels like Vegas! All jokes aside, it's a very cute story. The baggage each character carries feels familiar and isn't too outlandish. It's lighthearted but tackles some heavier themes here and there. The best part is the author knows exactly when to lighten the mood with a bit of comedy. The age gap might give some folks the ick, but it's not overtly in your face about it and doesn't feel forced. Definitely pick this up if you want a feel-good story!
