Let's discuss the text: What techniques has the author used in describing the bean dish that appeals to your senses?

Could anyone help me discuss, please? I don't friends or anyone to discuss since they aren't interested in language learning.

Is your mouth ready for a sweet but tart wake-up? Let your taste buds be startled and delighted by these incomparable baked beans! Dig your spoon through the cloud of bubbling cheese that hovers over the top of the dish. Dig it down, deep into the caramel smoothness below. Then, with your eyes closed, mound the creamy, honied mixture onto your tongue. Let the maple-mustard-pepper harmony flavors ooze over your tongue and trickle down your throat.


I think the author uses personification to describe how smooth and light the cheese is 'the cloud of bubbling cheese that hovers over the top of the dish'. And the repetitive use of "dig" to grab readers' attention and the use of high intensity vocabularies 'incomparable', 'startled ', 'delighted' makes the food sounds tasty, looks tempting and makes readers drool.
