ok let's see... this was 2015 so it's hard to remember exactly. i drew treat first, because i needed a side character for the mount sorbet bit of syrup's main plot. after that i thought it would be cute to do a yuri series of treat and friends that took place on the mountain because i love snowy settings.
after treat i drew a snow leopard (later sushka in syrup 2), nutmeg, mochi, a deer girl (chiffon, also in syrup 2), and then moxie. their personalities were clear from their designs, and i got the most attached to the treat/mochi/moxie dynamic, since the thought of moxie being a bit of an antagonist that also pushes treat and mochi together was really appealing to me.
then i made LWT and everyone developed a lot from there!! i was thinking of just doing slice of life comics about them initially, but i'm glad i made games instead. and they still got comics in the form of another piece of candy... so we really got the best of both worlds hehe.
