  • “Viele dachten der Klimawandel oder der ungebremste Kapitalismus würde der Menschheit zum Verhängnis werden. Doch niemand hatte mit dem großen Schnabelbündnis von 2025 gerechnet.” brummte der Geschichtsschreiber in die gebannte Stille seiner mit Jungvögeln gefüllten Schreibstube. Mit einem Ächtzen und einem kräftigen Flügelschlag klappte er das Buch über die Menschen zu und stellte es zurück in die Abteilung über ausgestorbene Lebensformen.




  • Ja ich hab mich schon gefragt was das soll. Also was fällt den Krähen ein? Ist ja nocht so, dass die Katzen die ersthast überwältigen könnten aber vielleicht unterschätze ich Katzen auch massiv und es sind eigentlich ebenbürtige Gegner.

    Es gibt hier auch ein oder Awei Adler (oder Bussarde, keine Ahnung sind immer zu weit weg) die ihre Kreise über die Gegend ziehen. Auch einer von denen wurde schon von Krähen attackiert.












  • I printed the mold with a 3D printer and pressed them upside down into the dough (the pictures you use have to be mirrored then). You can create these molds very easily in cura (the 3D-print-prepping software).

    The dough should have very little, best no baking soda, so the pictures don’t get blurry. Before pressing the mold into the dough it should be covered with plenty of flour. This helps with separating because the 3D surfaces are usually pretty rough. First dip into flour, tap of the access and then dip into the rolled out dough.

    For the topping i used standard cookie topping colour. But made it thinner by adding water. This makes it flow better into the gaps. I let the access topping drip off and scrape it away from the high regions of the cookie. This gives better contrast and because the way the molds are created it makes the picture look more 3D.



  • So… Someday i learned that you can make cookie stamps with a 3D printer very easily just from pictures and i had to promote something about electronics at work. So i made elektronic-circuit-looking cookies to luer colleagues in the lab. They were of course awesome

    One day a colleague dumped his badge into his coffee mug that was standing on the table because his badge used to be on a necklace and he was bending over to connet a monitor for presenting. Some time later i thought it would be hella funny to make him a bunch of rectangular badge-sizes cookies that looked exactly like his badge, except they said: “badge to dip into coffee” He didn’t even get the joke at first. He was just speecless i made cookies with his face. Any way, after getting the joke he showed them to everyone in the office that stepped by his desk.

    Also when organizig workshops i once made the best cherry cheesecake that i ever made and i don’t think i will ever make a better one. I often times think about it.

    At one point i decided to become a cakefluencer and documented the process of making a rainbowcake. It tasted really disgusting because of all the coloring i was using. It looked really cool though. The colleagues at work where nice enough to say they liked it, maybe they really did. I don’t know. (I did not become a famous cakefluencer) Edit: the color sections were also off

    Nowadays i work for a more uptight company, so no fun cookie stuff anymore. But i will have my last day next week, so i will bring cake on friday. I will attempt to make mango cheesecake because i’ve always wanted to try that. And also some vegan cake with nuts or something.

    I will add some pictures later if i don’t forget and also english is obviously my second language.

    Edit: added pictures
