Dessert Ateliers (DA) are small shops that sell high-end homemade desserts such as macaroons, cakes, and cookies, and their popularity is increasing according to the emergence of small luxury trends. Even though each DA sells the same kinds of desserts, they are differentiated by the personality of their pastry chef; thus, there is a need to purchase desserts online that customers cannot see and purchase offline, and thus dessert e-commerce has emerged. However, it is impossible for customers to identify all the information of each DA and clearly understand customers' preferences when buying desserts through the dessert e-commerce. When a dessert e-commerce service provides a DA recommendation service, customers can reduce the time they hesitate before making a decision. Therefore, this paper proposes two kinds of DA recommendation method: a clustering-based recommendation method that calculates the similarity between customers' content and DAs and a dynamic weighting-based recommendation method that trains the importance of decision factors considering customer preferences. Various experiments were conducted using a real-world dataset to evaluate the performance of the proposed methods and it showed satisfactory results.
