Kirakira☆Precure A La Mode episodes

As Ichika Usami makes her way home to prepare a cake for her mother, a strange cream-filled explosion occurs nearby, causing Ichika, along with some other girls, to see visions of sweets.

However, Ichika becomes saddened when she learns her mother can't make it home, losing the motivation to finish her cake. Just then, an evil fairy named Gummy appears and starts stealing the Kirakiral from inside the cakes to make himself stronger, leaving the cakes black as a result. Determined to protect the successful cake that Ichika put her feelings into, Pekorin strives to protect it from Gummy, helping Ichika to realise that her cake isn't pointless. As Ichika is encouraged to finish decorating it on the spot, the cake transforms into a Sweets Pact and the Rabbit Shortcake Animal Sweet, giving her the power to transform into the Pretty Cure, Cure Whip.
