Smith of Wootton Major by JRR Tolkien

A village with traditions, a Master Cook who makes a great cake, and the gift of Faery

This story watches decades go by in a small town that appreciates good food and traditions. And then on a day of days, one boy unwittingly receives a great gift - a fay star.

This is the last complete written story from the brilliant JRR Tolkien, and goes a long way in describing the indescribable.
