Anyone want to taste test my latest recipe?
I've got:
Salt-soaked Dryophyllum with seeds
Cupressinocladus needles with Ginkgo leaf sauce
Lycophyte salad
Let me know what you think. Be honest.
3 million years after the K-Pg mass extinction, and life is thriving.
Here, in the southwest of North America, a Carsioptychus coarctatus forages for food. Unknowingly, she has wandered into the territory of a large male Ectoconus ditrigonus.
And dinosaurs persist too. A male Tsidiiyazhi abini tries his best to win the heart of his love.
What do yβall think?

240 million years ago, 3500 kilometres east of Pangea, lies a small remote landmass.
Here, just off its western coast, a male Lariosaurus xingyiensis chases a shoal of Habroichthys orientalis. While his hind limbs retain joints and claws from his terrestrial ancestors, his flipper-forelimbs are highly adapted to his sub-aquatic lifestyle.
Two peach cakes with peach pudding between them, then coated with 7-minute frosting.

The base is vanilla cake, topped with passion fruit mousse, and then passion fruit glaze.π
Here, in the temperate forests of what will one day become eastern Asia, we have travelled back 128 million years.
Suddenly... a sudden rush of movement. A Psittacosaurus lujiatunensis is running... running for its very life. Desperate to shake its pursuer, it makes a tactical retreat... slipping into the safety of the deeper water.
The hunter emerges. It is a Dilong paradoxus. But this is no seasoned killer. It is a mere juvenile... a youngster, simply practicing the vital skills it will need to survive in adulthood. It pauses at the water's edge, calculating... evaluating... testing the depth of this aquatic barrier.
In this lush, prehistoric world, an abundance of resources fuels a remarkably diverse host of unique fauna... and flora. And here, just beneath the surface, lies perhaps one of the most significant organisms of all.
At first glance, it appears rather unassuming. This... is Archaefructus. It is an aquatic plant, but it carries a profound secret. This fragile green stem is one of the earliest known angiosperms... the very first flowering plants.
Right now, it is a rare curiosity. But in just forty million years' time, this revolutionary group of plants will diversify at an astonishing rate... ultimately spreading across the globe, and changing the face of our planet forever.
I do hope I nailed the Sir David Attenborough accent.π
ππ So excited to bring in more animals! I plan to house all the different species of animals in PK here!
The south-eastern coast of Asia, 115 million years ago.
Two Nagatitan chaiyaphumensis approach each other on the Tethys coast. But unlike the typical, brute clashes of macronarian sauropods, these giants share a moment of gravity. These are gentle and passionate animals. As the male approaches the female, their long necks intertwine in a display of slow, rhythmic devotion.
Seeking reprieve from the rising winds, a solitary Sirindhorna khoratensis rests in the warm sand, briefly shielded by the towering titans.
So itβs a very simple but very tasty cake. A plush chocolate cake base top with a thick layer of chocolate mousse.π

Honestly I donβt know what to call these. The base is a vanilla cake, topped with ermine frosting and strawberry compote.π
These are soft orange cakes topped with cream cheese frosting (lightened with whipped cream) and orange tuiles (turned out a bit too thick for my liking). I also added a little bit of chocolate ganache.π
