Caroline’s Friendship Perks

Once you grow a friendship with Caroline, she will sometimes send letters containing small rewards. The gifts are quite underwhelming compared to other characters, and you will likely get Cauliflower, Parsnip, or Potato.

However, you can get some nice recipes from Caroline’s Heart Events. Here is the list:

• Two Hearts: Tea Sapling Recipe – Caroline will send you a letter about how you can craft a tea sapling that can give green tea leaves.
• Three Hearts: Parsnip Soup Recipe – This meal can recover 85 Energy and 38 Health.
• Seven Hearts: Vegetable Stew – This dish can grant 165 Energy and 74 Health.
