Telesphore Berry Liqueur Cupcakes

Telesphore Berry liqueur cupcakes

Officially, Telesphore's cupcakes should be snake-berry and swamp apricot, which are clearly unavailable to me, so I went with berries from a fresh batch of berry liqueur and some almond and vanilla extract. Which means these are going to take longer to perpare than usual, since you need at least two weeks to make the liqueur (the berries need to sit in sugar and ferment for about a week and then at least another week to macerate with the alcohol of your choice). I went with a fluffy cake that I overbaked, to get a nice, crispy exterior.

Recipe under the cut and on ao3

If you know how to make vișinată or afinată or any other kind of -ată, or a cordial, you're set. If you don't, I recommend looking up a recipe, but what I did was put a bunch of blueberries, redcurrants, strawberries and sliced apricots (get the pieces about the same size as the berries) in a 1L jar with about 200gr sugar, in layers, and leave them for about a week. Shake the jar every now and then, so the sugar dissolves. About a week later, you'll have some nice syrup and some fermented fruit - fill up the rest of the jar with vodka and leave it for at least another week. (You're supposed to leave it for three months for vișinată, for instance, but that would just make this whole recipe's prep time ridiculously long. You can let whatever's left from making the cupcakes age properly afterwards. A week is long enough for what we need here).

Now, for the cupcakes proper.

Ingredients:

4 eggs, separated

200gr sugar

1tsp vanilla essence

1/2tsp almond essence

150gr flour

1/4tsp salt

4tbsp oil

2tbsp water

a few drops lemon juice

200gr berries from the liqueur (this will include about a tablespoon of alcohol) (if you don't want to use alcohol, you can use fresh berries and apricots. don't worry about it)

Preheat oven (Gas Mark 4/180° C/350 F).

Separate the eggs

Mix the yolks with 2tbsp sugar, half the salt, the vanilla and almond essence

Beat the egg whites with the rest of the salt, a few drops of lemon juice and the rest of the sugar (add it gradually), until you get stiff peaks

Incorporate as much flour as you can into the yolk mixture

Gradually incorporate the whites into the mixture (switch to a fork or a whisk at this point)

Gradually incorporate the rest of the flour, one tablespoon at the time

Carefully incorporate the berries into the batter.

Spoon the batter into the muffin tray and bake for 30min

Leave them in the over for a couple more minutes after they're done, to make sure they won't deflate.

Let them cool in the tray for 1-2min after you take them out and then let them cool completely.

Frosting:

250gr mascarpone

3tbsp sugar

1tbsp berry liqueur

a few drops of blue and red food dye

Mix until stiff

dieter my little Shitty Meow Meow. he spent 2,000,000 marks to watch someone die live on stream

Why do people think Victorian orphans were like the peak of sheltered pure innocence
"Imagine feeding mountain dew to a Victorian orphan" they'd probably appreciate the pick-me-up before their shift as junior OSHA violator at the accident factory
"Imagine showing a Victorian orphan vtubers" they'd say "this is boring I wanna watch public executions"

Transcript of audio file below the cut

DIETER: Yeah, excuse me- what did you call this? "V-tubing?" Wh- what is that, "v-tubing"? What's the V stand for? Valorian? Valorian tubing? This is boring! I wanna go watch a public execution. What are all those icons popping up? Ooh, can you submit a donation request? Oh. Cool. 'Kay, one second.

SOUND: Keyboard clacking.

DIETER: Cool. I just asked if somebody could kill him live on stream. Why did I just get a pop-up that I'm banned?? You can't do that?? You can't ask that?? THIS CENTURY IS SO STUPID! OH MY GOD, PLEASE, I HATE LIVE STREAMS! ...Wait, do you think anywhere live streams public executions?

Eisen stumbled out of the doorway and straightened his coat, grumbling obscenities under his breath. So what if he'd gotten into a disagreement? Hans was meant to be his pal, and Eisen thought they were past the point of the unilateral I-dont-care-who-started-it punishments they used to dole out back in grammar school.
If Hans had even an ounce of deductive reasoning skill he'd have been able to see, clearly, that the fat bastard had struck first. Eisen was merely acting in self defence.
He looked at his assailant, who was dabbing the purple blood welling up at his right temple with a handkerchief.
He was from the Kehrseite, which would've been obvious even if he wasn't bleeding, given his glowing eyes and the fact that he had to duck to get through the tavern door. He looked about Eisen's age, which meant in actuality he was probably at least 250 years old.
Eisen could never remember if a year in the other world was worth 7 or 10 years on earth.
The stranger blinked and shook his head.
"I think you gave me a concussion," he said flatly.
"Aye, well I reckon you broke my nose."
The stranger grumbled something that sounded like 'it could’ve been much worse' before folding his handkerchief up and putting it in his pocket.
"It matches your suit now," Eisen smirked.

"Hilarious," the stranger said in a tone that indicated the opposite.
Eisen responded with a two-fingered salute.
He heard once about a friend of a friend, or something like that, who got into a row with a good Neighbour and had ended up infertile afterwards. Or maybe blind. It was one or the other. Stories like that were common, but Eisen always assumed they were bollocks. The only advantage the stranger had that Eisen could see was that he was bigger, but he still reckoned he could take him. Eisen was a far cry from the wiry little rat he'd been back when he started college. Three years on the Grasshoff social rugby team, and another two training with the Feverite militia had considerably built up his muscle mass. Plus, there was an iron sign hanging from the wall above the door, and the nails holding it in were rusty. A simple deconstruction spell would detach it from the brick, some basic legerdemain would adjust its trajectory in the direction Eisen wanted. Even being 2 metres tall and 160-odd kilos (as Eisen would guess the stranger was) didn't make you immune to head trauma.

so what if I kept going on that Eisen flashback drabble. and what if I'm writing a prequel novella. what then

you would almost think that israel has stopped killing palestinians but in the past twenty-four hours i have seen some of the most gruesome images of dead and beheaded human beings in my life, once again, in july of 2024.

israel is banking on nine months of genocide pacifying global outrage, the slow and steady extermination becoming more palatable. however, nine months in this also incriminates them absolutely.

to be committing such heinous crimes nine months in, with a genocide trial, ICC warrants pending, the eyes of the world on them shows that israel is not a state with any system of accountability, nor are its citizens or its supporters capable of mounting a real opposition to its genocidal mandate of palestinians. nine months of unstoppable and unceasing war crimes, and nine months of israel apologists refusing to give an inch as they continue to take lives. nine months of proving that they were never trying to end hamas, nor were they ever capable of it, but they seek nothing except the annihilation of palestinians and the annexation of their lands. nine months of settler colonialism in action.

nine months of palestinians being proven, beyond a doubt, completely right in their assessment of israel. a state that is beyond redemption, a state that is not a partner for peace, a state that has never stopped reproducing the violence of its foundation since the day it was founded.
