- 3 cups of flour ( or almond flour for gluten free )
- 2 eggs

- 1 tbs of wisky ( optional )
- 1 tbs of salt
- 1 tbs of baking powder ( if almond flour is used double the baking powder )
- 1 cup and a half of milk ( i use full fat milk - can be substitued with almond / coco nut milk for gluten )
- 2 -3 tbs of chocolate poweder / cacao


For the filling of the cake :

- can use fuits : red berries or ( mango - pineapple & peach) or (bananas + nuts & chocolate chips) +a little Cream

I recomned banana , nuts and chocolate chips .

For the Glazing :
- U will need some Whiped cream + some food coloring.

I used whiped cream powder , u can use spray cream too for easy servicng but you wont be able to color the cream.

To color the Cream:

I emptied 1 cream pack + 1/2 a cup of milk & a few drops of food coloring in the milk , than i mixed all.

Dear Community,

rumors have it that active players are getting less. Therefore unique and famous
clan "Patito Feo" = "Ugly Ducks" decided to create some new fearless warriors.

Unfortunatly the generation process went kind of wrong, so new ducks are not the usual colour
of our clan members but striped. Seems like even way to human race is free to them and they have
to work out their life attitude and aims for themselves.

If you´d like to convince one of those new fighters for your race or clan just write an application
about your leadership skills to:

Unfortunatly "Insert Image" doesnt work here so i have tu put picture in
as the following link, here is my final entry:

Find here my recipe of German "Mürbeteig" with the old "3-2-1 Ingredients" -Rule and please note
that i was baking the first time in my life and didnt have stuff like forms, mixer, baking roll
but had to find all hand made solutions which was real fun! So thanks WOD again for the idea/inspiration


Recipe - shortcrust

300 gr. Flour
200 gr. butter
100 gr. white Sugar

Mix all that and put it in the fridge for 2 hours to have a solid dough to be formed

Use couverture to "paint" and use marzipan, powdered sugar and cocoa powder to create brown wheels
