EA 06/03

Public 06/24

We went with a coffee theme, and made drinks and desserts.

The theme this month was for Coffee!

12 drinks and 3 dessert recipes - all original meshes and hand-drawn textures.

Releasing today are the full lot of drink recipes. 12 in total.

Fun, bright Lattes in a retro-style glass!

Butterfly Pea Flower, Pink Velvet, Mocha Biscoff, London Fog, and Dark Chocolate Grasshopper(no alcohol).

3 Darker, a little more elegant drinks in a smooth square glass.

Cookies and Cream, S'more, and Tiramisu

And 4 cute wafflecone drinks!

Cappuccino, Matcha Latte, White Chocolate Strawberry, and a cute Hot Chocolate with marshmallows. The Hot Chocolate is available for kids to drink! They can use the espresso machine by them self, but a teen and up can make one for them ^^ All drinks can be made by accessing the new Drinks category in our cookbook and Tablet!

Next is our fancy desserts - all three require the Gourmet skill. 3 for Affogato and 5 for the Tiramisu recipes.

Affogato.

Vanilla gelato, Espresso, and a shot of liqueur. We used amaretto, but since there are no bar-drink buffs, or alcohol in the used ingredients, you can also give it to your non-drinking sims.

Custom Ingredient tray and cooking Phase. Full LODS.

Classic Tiramisu

Mascarpone, Espresso-soaked Ladyfingers, and Cocoa Powder are the base for this classic recipe.

Custom phases. FUll LODS.

White Chocolate Raspberry Tiramisu

Mascarpone,Ladyfingers, Raspberries, White chocolate, and a light dusting of powdered sugar. The large servings are on a crystal cake stand, that would fit into a home or your bakery/cafe!

The desserts can be found under the Desserts category on our cookbook and tablet.

New Recipe Previews - Affogato and Tiramisu

This post was supposed to go up yesterday, as a video - but it just kept hanging up at the processing. :/ I tried four times over two days...so, here is the link for the videos on instagram, instead - Sorry for the hassle.

Affogato

This is the classic recipe for Affogato - made from gelato, espresso and a shot of liqueur. In this case Amaretto.

However, there are no drinking buffs, or any alcohol in the used ingredients, so you can use it for your non-drinking sims, too. It's served with almond biscotti.

Tiramisu

Two different recipes for the Tiramisu - Classic and Raspberry. The large portions are serves on crystal cake stands, so they won't look out of place in a bakery or cafe. ^^

These, the other recipes, and all the drinks will be out on the 5th! ^^

Candy Set is Free for Everyone!

Hello! Just letting everyone know that our Candy Set is free - 9 recipes, plus clutter versions of every recipe to fill up your shops! Plus our patron-picked recipe - every month our patrons get to pick which of our kitchen gadgets gets a new recipe, and they picked the sushi/rice maker...

...so we made Kitty(or neko) Strawberry Daifuku with strawberry milk! This is sized small for kids. :)

Please note you DO need the B&H pack to use the recipes, however as the recipes will not show up without it. All the clutter is base game. Please be sure to read the instructions, as you will need The recipes, the updated cookbook, the shared file, and the updated sushi maker for the recipes to appear in-game.

If you use our cooking tablet, please update that as well.

Please make sure to delete any older versions!

and please read the TOS, please. Thank you. ^^; Direct Link to Download Post.

As always, this is a direct link to the download post, I will never redirect you to adfly/similar garbage.

All Waffle cone Drink Recipes - a lil video preview...

More for June, but last of the drinks...

There are 4!

2 lattes, a cappuccino, and a hot cocoa with marshmallows.

Kids can drink the hot cocoa, but not the lattes. They can't make the cocoa, as they can't use an espresso machine, but a teen and up can make one for them!

This makes 12 drink recipes in all! I wanted to do many more, as there are so many pretty and varied drinks you can make, but had to stop to get onto actual recipes. ^^

Next up is one of the recipes - an elegant dessert for grown-ups!

We'll also be previewing the winning recipe for last month's poll! The candy/chocolate maker! :)

These work with any espresso machine, and are found under the new drink category in our cookbook!

Free Stuff and Previews for June!

Hey everyone! My patron-gift display cases are free for everyone! These are neutral to fit into a different array of shops, FREE of hideous space-wasting EA clutter, and have a variety of metal/wood/paint swatches! Please read the instructions on filling them up, as it can be a little iffy with so many slots. I'm not kidding. The small case has literally 3X the amount of slots the display cases fro the B&H pack have and the large one has… I think 50? Yes, probably way too many, but I like to have options! Just look at the EA Case compared mine, below. Small stuff looks horrible in the EA case, it makes shops look so sloppy. :/ I'll stop ranting.

HERE is the direct link to the download post! As always, this is a direct link. No adfly or redirection nonsense. Please make sure to read our TOS. Thank you! ^^

And we have previews(videos) for June rolling out - the theme is Coffee Shops/ Cafes!

Lattes! Five to start. The previews are separated by the type of glass, so there will be two more after this one. ^^ Video is dark, for some reason. >_> Everything in game is brighter.

Background Music by Pocketbeats Music from Pixabay!

aaannnd... here is another one, cute drinks in waffle cone cups! Or the video would be here, but there's only one video, so here is a static image!

You can see both on our Patreon(all members, free and up) or our Instagram.... or I'll just put it up tomorrow, if you don't want to go anywhere else. ^^ It's not just drinks, but some fancy desserts plus clutter - I'll be putting up previews of that stuff, too, soon!

May Set is Up!

It was actually up yesterday, but it was hours late. The info post is a little plain, and I'm sorry, I don't really have the energy. Yesterday morning, on release day, my mom fell, and face-planted on some stone tile and very literally split her upper lip in two, just straight through from the inside out, almost all the way up to her nostril. It was horrible, and we spent hours at the hospital. She's okay now, really sore, but okay. We're all a little emotionally drained by it. But, aside from a scar, there will be no lasting damage. But it really sucked. Anyway, sorry for the delay of the public post! You can find all the information HERE. This, as always, is a direct link to the post. No re-directing or ad-fly funny business.

New little video - my brother made a candy shop!

Using our April set, he also set up all the clutter swatches. I wanted to initially turn each swatch into an individual recipe, but there wasn't enough time in the month. ^^;

Here is a link to the video on tiktok. Next month is going to be another month of sweets - candy and cakes. My favorite things to make ^^ Here is the video in itself, in case the link above doesn't work. Still not 100% sure if tiktok does. >_>

Has this been happening to anyone else? I keep having ceiling lights catch fire. This happened once before when Werewolves came out, and it got so bad I had to get a mod to remove all fires from the game. Then it eventually went away/got fixed/etc and I never had it happen again, until recently. Ever since the new EP came out, this has started up again. This is Moonwood Mill, but it's also been happening in Ravenwood. Just those two worlds, none other. And I have zero fire-related mods. Standard lights and candles, no CC has caught fire, yet.

It's not as frequent as when it first started but it's extremely annoying, as you can imagine. You have to right-click cheat to put the bloody things out. They don't spread or even destroy the lights, but they still make a mess and freak sims out.

March Part II is up foe EA - Rustic Bruschetta and clutter. This was delayed because of the update/expansion and my own horrible timing. Plus, i re-made it three times trying new stuff. >_>;

It's a full oven recipe, with a custom ingredient tray, custom baking phase, large and small servings and full LODs.

It's bruschetta, served on olive wood boards with olives, tomatoes, and sliced pears. It has no flour used in the ingredients, so you can also consider it as being made with gluten free bread. It does contain cheese, though. And garlic, so it will make your vampires ill.

It also comes with a little clutter set - a loaf of homemade bread and an Oil and balsamic vinegar set.

Thank you so much to my subscribers!! :)

Quck little Video and peek at a recipe.

This just shows everything you get with the pergola in-game, and some swatches. You can see it here on Patreon. The link also has a picture of the recipe that was supposed to come out with it, but got derailed by bad timing. You can also watch it on our Tiktok, but I honestly don't even know if anyone can see it. Since January, I can post videos, and see them,but my own page is completely blank with the "check back later" text on it. So, here it is(maybe) on Tiktok. Apparently you can watch it from a link/search but not from my main page...at least for me.
