I’m Basil, a male member.
I’ve received homemade sweets a few times, though not letters. They were probably more like sharing some of what she’d made in a larger batch rather than making them specifically for me, but I certainly didn’t mind.
That said, a small amount that you can eat there is fine. If you’re given a lot, you can’t exactly take it home, so it can be a bit of a problem—something to keep in mind.

I’ve received one before, but I think it was probably given to me as an extra with something else. lol
The homemade ones weren’t too sweet, and even though they were just cookies, they were delicious.

I’m Dai, a male member.
I don’t have a letter, but I do have homemade sweets.
If you ask a woman who isn’t good at that sort of thing to make something, I doubt she’ll do it.
You should make an offer to a woman who’s good at it.

I’m Taro, a male member.
I’ve received homemade treats a few times. I opened them and ate them right there, making sure to show how happy I was and how good they were. If I was given something as we were parting, I’d send her a series of photos after I got home showing myself eating them, along with a LINE message saying they were delicious. I really appreciate the thought, but I’m particular about what I eat, so I’m not actually thrilled by sweets. If it were something delicious and homemade, packed with protein or more like a complete meal, I’d be delighted.
A long time ago, I became friendly with a friend’s girlfriend, and when I went to their place around dinnertime, she made fried chicken for me. She told me to start eating, but when I looked closely, one of the pieces had a pubic hair growing out of it. I still can’t forget the sight of that fried-chicken “lord” sprouting hair like Namihei.
I think chicken would be better than sweets. It’s high in protein, and the ingredients are relatively inexpensive.
Sorry, I got pretty far off track. As for answering your question, you should wait for her to offer to cook something. If you ask her to make something, she’ll probably find it annoying.

I’m a male member, Paper Airplane.
I’ve had several girls give me homemade sweets in the past. Some of them baked often and gave them to me fairly regularly—sometimes almost every time we met. I never asked for them; I assume they simply enjoyed baking.
I’ve never received a letter.

I’m in Seattle.
I’m single and have a sweet tooth, so I get quite a lot. It makes me really happy. I don’t usually ask for things, though—you need to find someone who enjoys making them.

I’m Aya, a female member.
I think there’s a high risk he’ll see you as a romantic and feel put off. From his perspective, it might feel almost like being asked for money or gifts… I’ve tried it myself, but the bigger the age gap, the safer it is to avoid asking for something handmade. It really does create an awkward atmosphere.

Maezawa from the CEO’s Office will answer as well.
I thought it was generally understood that homemade sweets can be a little scary, but apparently not everyone feels that way.
If the woman you’re currently seeing has never given you any, she probably just isn’t someone who bakes.
In that case, I’d suggest making an offer to a woman who enjoys baking. If finding someone is difficult, you could also ask the staff to look for someone for you.

One of the great things about a dating club is that you can meet all kinds of women, so it might be worth going on a date with someone you wouldn’t normally have sought out.

If she lives alone, she probably doesn’t have the tools for baking in the first place. And with a studio apartment kitchen, there usually isn’t much space either.
Why not look for someone who lists cooking or baking as a hobby on her profile?
That said, this isn’t a matchmaking profile, so even someone who enjoys baking may not mention it.

This is Osaka, a male member.
If you enjoy making things and want to give something to the person who asked the question, I don’t think it’s such a strange request.
But people who aren’t good at cooking or making sweets might find it annoying. Maybe bring it up naturally in conversation about cooking or baking, and ask if they enjoy making things.
Personally, I’m also not a fan of homemade gifts, just like Kazu. When I took a bite of the first cookie I was given, I found some kind of foreign object in it. I thought, “Oh, maybe it’s mine—perhaps it accidentally got stuck to my hand?” lol. But when I bit into the second one, I had to spit it out. That’s when I realized, “They clearly put this in there on purpose.” (T_T)
I also found a long strand of hair knitted into a sweater and threw it away. Things like that can be traumatizing, can’t they? I’m sure that sort of thing doesn’t happen these days, though...
P.S.
LOL, that cracked me up! Mac, that picture wouldn’t fit in the letter, lol. I cracked up imagining you writing it.

I’m Kazu, a male member.
I wouldn’t call it a letter, but I do occasionally receive cards with messages on them.
I’ve never received homemade sweets. I don’t like homemade food, so I wouldn’t want any.
A woman who enjoys baking probably wouldn’t find it much of a burden, but someone who doesn’t bake might feel confused or put on the spot.
