So I woke up this morning and for some reason, I had some of my old fankids in mind, specifically the darklico ones, so I was like “screw it, I’ll draw some fankids as humans”

This is a screenshot and unfinished however because I realized, of the human designs I’ve done, not many of them do I have ships for, or at least that I’ve completed

Like of this group I do have some, like Dark Cacao/Hollyberry, Sea Fairy/Moonlight, and I think Sea Fairy/Fire Spirit, but when I was looking at the first two for the references here, I realized that I didn’t have many outside of ships within the Cookies of Darkness. Which even then, I only have two pairings completed

So basically, I have to put the rest of the page on hold now. But I still wanted to show off what I did draw, so here’s a screenshot of the current lineup

These are their Cookie forms for reference

There is a third darklico kid, Gancao, but I’m also aware she’s in need of a design overhaul, so I didn’t include her here. Also Licorice Cream here is older than how I drew her initially, because I later decided she was the oldest due to her being an accidental homunculus rather than a product of the two getting together. So she also needs a redesign, but I at least have some reference to how she’s supposed to look now

In all honesty, I do think Licorice Cream looks the worst here. She’s not terrible, but I think her eyes are slightly too small and her face just isn’t quite right. Also for some reason when I look at her, I think of Iris from Pokémon

But I mean, I can probably chock up her off design to the fact that I drew her at like 3-4 in the morning. I woke up randomly super early and it seems like I went to sleep at random as well last night. I refused to go back to sleep this morning so I stayed up, but I don’t think my brain was operating at full capacity yet

Black Choco I think looks plenty better, though maybe not much like his counterpart. But also I can’t give him his hair streaks or purple fade, since my rule with these is that they can only have dye or contacts if it fits the character, and he’s a small child so I don’t think he can. I at least tried to compromise with the brown fade

Also I’m not sure I have his expression right. It was an issue while drawing, because I recall that he’s not supposed to be sad or anything, just jumpy and nervous, and he’s supposed to be looking around. But this was the best I could do, so oh well

Zuccotto on the other hand I think turned out great. I had it in my head that he generally looked like Affogato, which I think I achieved (to me they definitely look related), but he acts more like Red Velvet. I don’t entirely remember if that’s his character, I haven’t looked at his post in probably a good year, I just remember he’s Licorice Cream’s bestie and the straight man to her antics

But yeah, I think he looks pretty good. Admittedly though I don’t know why he, in-universe, has the super light hair when I made both of his parents naturally brown haired. I mean maybe it’s dye, but I don’t know how feasible that is with a lighter fade at the end as well as dark streaks. But oh well, it’s what worked best with how I designed him

And yeah, that’s about it. Hmm, maybe I need to go and make more human designs. And/or more fankids

I tried out a doodle style for funsies with Pastel Caviar Flakes, not sure if this doodle style will continue but hey, it's nice.

I tried out with Pastel Caviar Flakes doing a vocal warm up stream before a big concert! She only started streaming recently so she doesn't have many viewers, would you watch her streams? :>

Oh! And here's the head icons in Pastel Caviar Flakes' profile and her friends head icons too!

The Snail Is Back On Line And The Broadcast Is Not Lost

We see many others find out that the D's inherited a will that has been passed down which again fits in the theme of the series.

Cringesona being fantasy Italian like Marci and Pattadol being a bit of a gourmet in canon I think it will end up like with Marcella's mom who like. Swore off elf food after a few years living in fantasy Italy. There's a comic about it I think. Patty eats zuccotto and gets tears in her eyes and grabs Lapo's hand like please... promise me we'll eat this at our wedding and not elf cake... no matter what my family says... and Lapo is like OF COURSE HONEY I WILL FIGHT

Zuccotto Fiorentino

Zuccotto Fiorentino is an elaborate dessert of sponge cake and cream fillings that is popular in Florence. It is said to have been created during the Medici era by Bernardo Buontalenti. Here is a short history of the dessert. There are virtually hundreds of different recipes for Zuccotto Fiorentino, many of which use ricotta and candied fruits as a filling. My more contemporary version employs…

[mintytrifecta]

I made creme brulee lol

I have been TRYING for DAYS NOW to find SOMETHING TO BAKE and I have NO IDEAS

[venomspecs]

I have this Italian Disney themed recipe book and i didn't remember there was a whole section for Iliad/Odyssey inspired recipes, so I figured I'd share the illustrations that go with them. The section even starts with "sing o muse of Pelides Achilles."

In order of appearance: Paris' omelette with jam, Achilles' ciambella (typical Italian ring-shaped cake), Vegetable pudding called Battle Horse (in the book it's said Andromache used to make this for Astyanax 🥺), Odysseus' tuna and potato cake (I'm not really sure how to describe it in English so it doesn't sound awful lol) and the Sirens' chiacchiere (typical festive pastries whose name means "chatters", hence the siren connection.

Not pictured are Helen's honey-dipped fried apples, Menelaus' zuccotto (type of cake), and Penelope's salad with citrus fruits and nuts.

(Hmu if you want the recipes lmao)

Have you wondered which Charlotte family members remembers Katakuri's face from their childhoods?

Well I did the math , TLDR below

So according to the wiki, our mochi man started to cover up when he was 10 after Brûlée got attacked.

Brûlée was five years old at this moment.

Which means all the siblings older or just as old as Brûlée definitely remembers.

Assuming that usually your oldest memories are from when you were 3 years old, it is highly possible this siblings also remember:

It is highly unlikely but not impossible, that those siblings that were around 1 or 2 years old also remember:

Mont-d'Or was a new born back then and the rest were either still inside Big Mom or haven't even been conceived yet, so they definitely don't know about his mouth.

TLDR:

Definetly remembers: Perospero, Compote, Daifuku, Oven, Mondée, Amande, Hachée, Effilée, Opera, Counter, Cadenza, Cabaletta, Gala, Cracker, Custard, Angel, Zuccotto, Brûlée and Broyé

May or may not remember: Nusstorte, Basskarte, Dosmarche, Noisette, Moscato, Mash, Cornstarch, Compo and Laurin

Mont-d'Or and the rest wouldn't even know about it.

For the fan kid thingy, can I get a velvetgatto? (Affogato x red velvet)

Finally…after an eternity (about 6 months, which Jesus that’s a long time), he is finished. Zuccotto Cookie

So his name. Zuccotto is basically like an ice cream cake, so a combination of Red Velvet’s cake and Affogato’s ice cream. Also, it’s Italian, like affogato. I vaguely recall the name giving me trouble at first, until I realized cake and ice cream was a valid combination and got this

Zuccotto:

So I had his design sketched out like a month ago, and I think I recall telling you all that I couldn’t figure out how to make his design work. I had left the design I made and just went and did something else, and then today I was looking for something to draw and I said “yeah the design looks fine, don’t know why I didn’t like it” and just drew that

But also this means that I don’t remember all the reasons for his design details, most notably the staff

I mean, I know I based it off the staffs some of the Cake Monsters have, specifically the Pomegranate shamans or whatever they were called. I also know originally I was trying to make it a spork, but I couldn’t get it to look good, so I switched to the other staff. But I admit, it looks a bit out of place. I mean, I changed some of the colors at the end to match it, but I think it still looks off. But I’m not going through the effort of making a new one, I remember that staff being a pain

Anyways, so I think I was trying to give Zuccotto a style more befitting a shaman, but also with a more modern twist to emulate Red Velvet. I think I did it well

But one thing that was a real struggle was the colors, because I had no clue what to do for them. In my mind he had a black and red color scheme, and that’s how I had it at first, but I was having difficulty with putting the reds next to each other, and I changed some of the colors at the end to match the staff, and I think it worked out fine in the end

I feel like he looks too similar to Affogato, at least without colors (I felt that when I was drawing the sketch). But maybe I just need to take some time away from him and come back to really know. He probably doesn’t look as similar as I think

Also I’m just realizing that considering he’s not made of a food that contains coffee, he probably shouldn’t have dilated pupils, but like, both Red Velvet and Affogato have some form of them, so shhh

Anyways, so let’s move on to him

So Zuccotto is part of the Cookies of Darkness (assuming they stay for a long time and/or there’s a new group), and he’s some sort of Cake Shaman, summoning Cake Monsters to do his bidding. Though he has a great respect for Cakes and see them as equals. He’s not necessarily a bad guy, but he’s very loyal to the Cookies of Darkness and has no inclination to leave, feeling that normal Cookies have no respect for Cakes

I can imagine him playing cards or chess with the Cake Monsters, or at least the ones with hands

Now one of the other main things I have for him is his relationship with Licorice Cream, a darklico fankid I did some time ago, and whom you can see in the sketch (it’s supposed to be a recreation of that Toy Story meme). Basically my idea is that they’re both part of the CoD and they’re this duo within the group. Zuccotto is the straight man that gets dragged along into Licorice Cream’s antics and tries to stay the voice of reason. I said in my head that they have a dynamic similar to Mule and Sonia from Berserk, but also it’s been a while since I’ve read the chapters with them, and my mind may have branched off from that initial dynamic. But basically it’s “weird girl and normal dude who has no clue what she’s on about”. Actually that’s probably not accurate, I just don’t know how to describe Sonia, so sorry to those who haven’t read Berserk and don’t know what I’m talking about

Zuccotto’s also generally the more mature of the two, despite Licorice Cream being older (Zuccotto’s like a teenager while LC is an adult)

I feel like I should have more, but really those are the only two bits I have on him, I don’t think he’s that complicated. But I might have more to say about him when I redo Licorice Cream, since I have a better idea of what to do with her now, and they are rather close

But yeah, that’s Zuccotto Cookie, hope you like him and that maybe he was worth the wait!

So I drew some things like..

An anatomy study over Zuccotto's mermaid form! To better myself in cookie/mermaid anatomy

Also a small doodle page of just baby Pure Passionfruit(Ft. Pure Vanilla holding them because they were a strong biter when they started teething and PV was the second cookie who could handle holding them)

Annnnnd finally two fankids from another new rarepair: FrilledMargarine(Frilled Jellyfish x Royal Margarine)

My hands hurt from drawing so much today :')
