Darren doesn’t bake.
He’s got his talents, maybe more than his fair share, but baking isn’t one of them. Flour, eggs, and sugar rarely come together for him in anything but a mess. Two months ago, he tried to make a cookie in a mug to satisfy a vicious bout of late-night munchies without leaving his apartment, and his microwave ended up coated in burnt butter and chocolate.

He knows it’s just chemistry, but he wasn’t very good at that either.
