text:  In a shopping center in a bustling suburban part of Hong Kong, there's a tiny business called Nine Cake. They serve pretty little stacks of inch-thick pancakes covered in sweet sauces and whipped cream. How long have you been here in business? Four years. Angus Chan runs the place. The desserts all have names that play off of protest themes. The walls and the counter of the shop still bear protest-related stickers. And business seems okay when I visit, but Chan says they've faced a lot of pressure in the past couple years.
