Dessert is probably the most important stage of the meal, since it will be the last thing your guests remember before they pass out all over the table.   
-William Powell-

The beginning of Spring is finally here! Perhaps some sweetness can bring people some cheerful mood and enjoy the season. Griseldis was somehow inspired by her Ravenclaw friend’s Nan who is a famous baker and owns her own pastry shop. She then had an idea what her new errand will be for March. Even though students aren’t allowed to use the Kitchen and only staff members can enter BUT that doesn’t mean that students can’t get the chance to be creative helpers. The House-elves will be asked to bake a lot of cupcakes, sugar cookies, mini cakes, and marzipans. Of course, the participates are not allowed to eat them. Their main task of this errand will be to put their hearts in and decorate the desserts with their own magic of creativity.

Here is the list of desserts you can decorate:

Please note, that students can't use the kitchen (only staff can enter) to bake anything so only the House-elves will bring the baked goods and tools for dessert decoration to the Great Hall and that's the place where you start your errand thread. Also, your students are not allowed to eat the desserts but only to decorate them.

Here are two pics of tools that you can use to decorate your desserts, for exmaple:

For those who pick the Mazipans you can craft with your hands, use small items and paint edible colors on.

Prerequisite: None
Word Count Requirement: 1000 words
Group Type: Any, you may work in small groups or do solo threads.
Reward: 2 House Points + 6 Sickles
Month: March
Deadline: 19th April, 2020

Everyone can join this errand and you may post the link to your thread here for other players to join your little group but don't forget to mention which dessert you want to decorate. You may tag Griseldis to interact with you or perhaps give a sweet welcome to our new Divination Professor @Rosalind Kibitzer.  If you're currently doing other errands it's also fine to join this new one, here is what you need to know.

You can gain a maximum of:
25 House Points each school year
10 Sickles each calendar month

To clarify a few things, there is no specific thread to this errand. Everyone can make your own thread in the Great Hall. Do not forget to add your word count. There are four sections of desserts: cupcakes, mini cakes, sugar cookies and mazipans you can decorate. Students can only decorate the desserts and they can give their finished work to the new Divination Professor as a welcoming gift or let the House elves take the decorated desserts back to the kitchen. I can suggest that if you want a group to do the errand with you, you can post your link to the thread here or in the [RPGs Partners Requests]. Or do a solo thread and once you finished the errand, you may post here saying you have completed the errand.

Also, I noticed that perhaps it is a little unfair that they only get to decorate one dessert so I changed my mind that every students are allowed to decorate all four dessert sections to their hearts' content...but no eating or start a dessert fight...

@Bridget Collins and I are decorating cookies and both have exceeded the word count. Thread here.  

I am currently working on a solo thread for myself! will post a link when it's ready!
