Expression: "...comme le veut la tradition"

Expression: "...comme le veut la tradition"

I find this expression interesing: "comme le veut la tradition". Is there a specific lesson for that?

Would it work also in these examples? E.g. "The cake was made of chocolate, like how he wanted it." "The red coat is more beautiful, as she says."

Thank you

Hi Katie,

In the case of the chocolate cake it would be -

... comme elle le voulait 

 and the red coat -

...comme elle le dit

Hope this helps!
