Wedding Party Guests and Darryl's House Wedding Furniture

You can find the post that deals with the Yard Sale Quest and the current May Wedding Farm Beauty Contest below this one.

Here is a link as well:

Yard Sale Quest and May Wedding Farm Beauty Contest

As of 15 May, there are two new untimed Missions in the Lighthouse in the form of Cat-Well-Soon and California Girl.  California Girl Quest now is complete, thanks to Dani Richards and Kaye Webb... Kaye amazingly completed the entire Quest and sent it to me.  Cat-Well-Soon is a joint effort by Kaye and myself and now is complete as well.  Find both at the end of this post.  Although these Missions are untimed in the sense that you can begin them at any time from the Lighthouse, once you activate a part, you will be required to complete it within 5 days..  There are four parts, each containing 4 sets of tasks.  Rewards are Mission Gift Boxes and Bedding Rolls.  No Decoration Rewards for these!

There is a new Level 10 slot in the Pet House.  It will be your 13th slot and requires the following to complete:

20 Bedding Rolls (1 RC each or obtain from Lighthouse Mission or Bedding Roll Bag (Daily Deals).
8000000 Coins
80 Pink Rose Lamps
300 Pink Paint

There is a new time-limited option to invite Wedding Party Guests and obtain special Heart Paper from them to merge in the Factory to create special Wedding Theme furniture for Darryl's House. Note that you can merge two old Theme Decorations in the Factory as well now.  I have listed them below with the materials needed.

With the special Wedding Furniture in Darryl's House, you now can reach Level 11 with respect to the House Points.

Note here that although I unlocked all three Star Levels for the Wedding Guests, you may be best served by using the 2 Star Guests.    The 3 Star List includes all four of the 2 Star Guests with the addition, as is usual with 3 Star Guests, of one very difficult Guest who requires 8 Orders and gives 4 Rewards... yes, this means more Heart Paper, but the totals with respect to the number of items that the other Guests require increase, even though they are the same Guests, and it can be very expensive ultimately.

You are given one Passport per day for the Wedding Guests.  Each additional passport costs 150 TC and can be used for any Star Level Wedding Party Group.

Tip:  Essentially, to service these Wedding Party Guests, although the actual Orders vary a little, you will need large quantities of Honey Syrup, Chocolate, Peacock Feather Earrings, Conch Earrings and Peche au Caramel.  Peche au Caramel is one of the dishes required for the 3rd round of the current Cooking Contest which seems a little poorly organised and a bit unfair!

Factory Beauty Contest Theme Decorations:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

You can obtain two theme decorations from the past now by merging Heart Paper in the Factory.  These are:

Heart Picture Frames: 25 Heart Paper
Guest Sign: 30 Heart Paper

A list of all Wedding Furniture with prices and House Point values  is at the end of this post.

Formal Suit
xxxxxxxxxx

Darryl's Formal Suit:  Unlock this by obtaining all the items in the Wedding Furniture Set.  Note, however, that it is a temporary outfit available only for 60 days.

Please be aware that the real point of this activity is to be able to merge the Theme Decorations if needed and the Wedding Furniture for Darryl's House.  Raising House Points to a higher level can allow you to collect better rewards from the House and from Darryl on a daily basis.  Having the Theme Decorations can increase your votes from the Characters in the Farm Beauty Contest.

Mootopia Map and Temporary Guest Icon

You always can find any temporary Guests in the bottom left of the Mootopia Map.  You will see a special icon.  Tap on that to see the 3 different Guest lists and their requirements.  Evidently, we are given only one Passport each day to use on any Star level we have unlocked.  You can purchase extra Passports for 150 TC each.

The poor cat got weaker and weaker. Just like our little Darryl right now. Don’t we have some light food for my poor boy? He needs to eat something!

You are right!

Produce 80 loaves of Wheat Bread
  Skip using 4 RC

Produce 80 bottles of Ketchup
  Skip using 4 RC

Cook 4 French Fries in the Stove House
  Skip using 4 RC
  Each requires 1 Potato, 6 Sugar and 3 Power.

Place Potato and Sugar and set timer for 4 minutes, 30 seconds.  Tap 'Finish' as soon as the Bronze Star is activated.
  Task counts as soon as cooking begins.  Takes 4 and 1/2 minutes to reach Bronze Star.

  Note here that there are two separate ratings for this dish: Bronze and Blue Star.  There is no rating requirement for Stove House dishes that are cooked for tasks in quests, although there are specific rating requirements often when a Stove House dish is required as a material for an upgrade.  Thus, I have given the quickest Bronze Star version of this dish.

Although you do not need the Blue Star recipe for this Quest, here is the quickest and easiest way to complete one:

The quickest way to cook a Blue Star French Fries is:

Place Potato in Pot and set the timer for 10 minutes.

Add the Sugar and set the timer for 5 minutes.  As soon as the Blue Star activates, tap 'Finish'.  Remember that cooking the Sugar longer than 5 minutes will burn it, so you need to be precise here.

Probably safer to set the timer for 4 minutes, 50 seconds after you add the Sugar and watch it carefully until the Blue Star is reached.

Rewards: 2500 Coin; 200 XP

Healthy food will help you regain your strength and make you energetic again!

Yard Sale Quest and Dust Cleaners Collection Mission

A new 11 day Quest has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission.  At the same time, a new Farm Beauty Contest has been launched.  The current May Wedding Farm Beauty Contest is included at the end of this post.

Dust Cleaner Collection Mission:

70 Yellow Dust Cleaners from Rice
50 Blue Dust Cleaners from Buffalo Milk
30 Pink Dust Cleaners from Turkey Sausage
10 Green Dust Cleaners from Eucalyptus Tree

Buddha Bowl Recipe:

Ingredients: 1 Rice, 1 Cabbage, 1 Pumpkin, 1 Tomato, 1 Pitaya, 6 Power
  Place all ingredients in bowl and set timer for 30 seconds.  Tap 'Finish' immediately when the Bronze Star activates.  The recipe has a maximum time of 40 seconds, but the Pitaya will burn if you allow it to cook more than 30 seconds.  Your other option is to cook all ingredients apart from the Pitaya, add it after 30 seconds and 'Finish' when the Bronze Star activates immediately thereafter.

Strategy Tips:
xxxxxxxxxxx

One of the tasks requires that your Pets dig 8 Chests so do not use all of your allotment if you wish to complete this in one day.  Or open and do not collect as task is counted when the Chest is opened.

For those who have unlocked the Fishery/Fishing College, refrain from casting a Net until you have completed the fishing task.

Do not tend the Flowers in the Botanic Garden prior to completion of the Quest.  One task requires that you use a Spade 3 times.

Tips for New Farmers or Low Level Farmers
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The Quest and linked Collection Mission are active for 11 days.   Try to complete the Collection Mission first as once the Quest expires, you no longer will have access to it.  The Rewards for Collection Missions now tend to be either 'collectables' or Stove House Recipes.  When the timed quest expires, they will appear in the Market but you will have to pay RC for them.

The traditional Quest, on the other hand, should appear in the Lighthouse once the Quest expires.  You will need the 'Collectable' or Stove House Recipe from the Collection Mission to complete it, but you will be able to continue the Quest if you did not finish it while it was active.

These Quests are divided into four sections.  They are divided in the same way in the Lighthouse. Try to complete an entire section so that you need not go through it again in the Lighthouse, even if you cannot complete all 16 parts of the Quest while it is active.

May Wedding Farm Beauty Contest
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

With changes in the votes from the four characters, it should not be difficult for veteran Farmers to obtain a total of 300 Votes per day from the Characters alone if they have been playing long enough to accrue the Theme items.  With 300 Votes per day in a 20 day Contest, you will receive the Avatar by the end of it EVEN IF NO NEIGHBOUR VOTES FOR YOU AT ALL!  This makes the Contest a bit less frustrating for the ordinary farmer if you have played long enough to have reached Level 80 at any rate.

The Farm Beauty Contest is unlocked only when you reach Level 30 I believe.  Originally available at any Level, it was open to abuse from farmers who created countless farms in order to vote but never played the game.  At Level 30, a farmer has proved himself/herself in terms of showing a valid interest in the game.  If you are between Level 30 and Level 50, your best option if you wish to receive the Decoration Reward for 4000 Votes is to purchase the premium items that are worth more than one vote from the 4 Characters AND, whenever possible, to buy and complete the Base that is featured as a theme item.

Wedding Base
xxxxxxxxxxxx

The old Wedding Base from last year is featured in this contest as a theme item and three new premium Decorations are being offered in the special sales offers.  The three new premium Decorations now have been added to the Theme book.

The Wedding Base is a Theme item and is worth a maximum of 2 Votes per day from each of three of the Characters.  In other words, once completed, it can boost your votes in the Theme category by 6 votes per day from the Characters.

Every farmer now can have a total of 2 Wedding Bases.  You will find the Wedding Base in the Decoration section of the Market for 1000 Coins.  If you never purchased or completed a Wedding Base in the past, you will be able to purchase the materials to complete it in the various Mystrons shops.  If, however, this is your second Wedding Base, you need to purchase the special Wedding Base Bag for 20 RC.  You will find this in the Daily Deals and it contains ALL materials for the Base.

Materials for the Base for farmers who never completed one in the past are found as follows:

White Heart: 25 Green Mystrons (20 required)
Heart Stick: 20 Purple Mystrons (12 required)
Heart Tile: 5 Yellow Mystrons (8 required)
Pink Heart: 5 Blue Mystrons (7 required)

If you obtained the Wedding Base last year but did not complete it, you always can access the Base itself to see what materials still are needed to complete it.

As of 9 May, the three new premium decorations finally were included as Theme items in the Book.
This post is designed to allow you to gain as many Votes as possible from the four characters by maximising your own Farm to achieve the highest number of Votes in every Category.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
May Wedding Farm Beauty Contest
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The current Farm Beauty Contest is given the title of 'May Wedding'.   Oddly enough, the NEW premium decorations offered in the special sales at the top right of the screen are now even Theme Decorations according to the Contest 'book'.

The Wedding Bases is a Theme items:
First available last year, you now can purchase it in the Market and own a total of two Wedding Bases, but only one will count for theme, although it is worth 2 Votes from each of three of the Characters, a maximum of 6 per day.


OBTAINING THE REWARD DECORATION
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

You need a total of 4000 Votes by the end of the Contest to receive the significant reward which is the Decoration.  Almost any farmer should be able to maximise the Votes of the 4 Characters to obtain this even without a single vote from a Neighbour.  You basically need a total of 200 Votes per day.

For the Avatar, you need 300 votes per day, but with the recent changes in Character Votes, it is not impossible by any means to reach these totals from the Character votes alone.  If you are receiving 300 votes per day from the four Characters, you will obtain the Avatar by the end of the Contest.  To obtain 300 Votes per day from the Characters alone, you need to have reached Level 90.  If all other categories give you the maximum number of votes, Level 80 - 90 will leave you short of 300 by only 1 Vote per day, however.

VOTE CATEGORY CHANGES
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

There are two significant changes from former Contests that became active in the last Contest.  The first is the addition of Pets as a Vote category for Grandma in the form of 'pets with fancy equipment'. The second is a decrease in the totals for the Levels required for Dad's Vote for 'high level farm'.



Pet Category
xxxxxxxxxxx

The total number of Votes that can be given by Grandma for Pets is 12.  Equipment (the collars, scarves and bow ties and so on) that you forge in the Factory each count for 1 Vote.  Apparel counts for the other Votes and it does not matter if it is premium Apparel or Temporary Apparel or even duplicate Apparel.  All will count equally.  A Buddy Pet does NOT count.  That was a glitch.

PETS MUST BE OUTSIDE THE PET HOUSE TO COUNT!

In other words, to gain 12 Votes from Grandma each day for the Pet Category, you need a total of 4 Pets, each wearing a piece of equipment and 2 pieces of apparel.

High Level Farms
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

This has changed a few times through the years but I only know for certain that Freyashawk at Level 117 received 15/18 votes for 'high level farm' from Dad.  At Level 120, HM. Freyashawk now receives 16/18 votes from Dad for 'high level farm'.   This was NOT the case in the earlier Farm Beauty Contests.  At Level 145, another player received 18/18 but I believe the actual level requirement for maximum votes in this category is lower.


Basic Rules
xxxxxxxxxx

It is your current photograph of your Farm or 'snapshot' that determines the Votes from the 4 Characters in the game every day.  In previous Contests, a Theme decoration often would be counted if it had been placed on the Farm, even if it had not been registered yet.  I think now it is a good idea to register all theme items as quickly as possible.

Balance and variety always is the key in these contests.  You need a variety of Crops, Animals, Trees, Machines and Theme Decorations on your farm to maximise the votes from the 4 Characters.  If you design your Farm for maximum votes from the 4 Characters, you should not need ANY Votes from your Neighbours to obtain the Theme Decoration Reward that requires a total of 4000 Votes by the end of the Contest.

Duplicates never have counted where Crops, Trees, Animals, Machines and Decorations are concerned.  I doubt that has changed.  The only change really is that duplicates of Pet Equipment and Apparel DO count.

Crops
xxxxx

Have at least 16 different Crops on your Farm to obtain maximum Votes from Darryl for 'variety of Crops'.  You may need less but Crops are easy to plant.  They do not have to be mature when you take the photo to count.

Trees
xxxxx

Try to have 16 different types of Trees ON YOUR FARM when you take the photograph.  Trees in the Tree Nursery will not be counted.  Again, you may need fewer than 16 types but it does not hurt to be safe to obtain maximum votes from Grandma for 'enough Trees'.


Animals
xxxxxxx

Beehives and Butterfly Houses as well as the Bat House are considered Animals so every different TYPE of Beehive or Butterfly House counts but duplicates of any type of Animal do NOT Count. You should not need a total of 16 different types of Animal to obtain maximum votes from Felicia for Animals but again, if you have 16, use them.

Machines
xxxxxxxx

In Contests in the past, you only needed a total of 12 different machines to obtain maximum Votes from Dad for Machines but this may have changed.  Players claimed that the Salad Machine gave 2 Votes instead of 1, but never confirmed that.  In any case, duplicates do not count and if you can cram 16 onto your Farm before you take the photo, better to be safe than sorry.

Expansion
xxxxxxxxx



Both Felicia and Dad give Votes for 'Big Farms'.  The good news is that you do not need many expansions on your original farm to obtain 16/16 from each of them.  A farmer who does not have even the 23 x 23 Expansion will obtain maximum 16/16 votes in this category!

Theme
xxxxxx

Only Grandma does not vote for Theme, so you have Theme Votes from three out of four farm characters.  The Theme List always can be found in the little Red Book in the Farm Beauty Contest Menu.  I will include a list below as well with the price of each Decoration if you can purchase it and how to do so in each case.

Gallery Registration
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Register as many items as possible BEFORE you take your photograph to maximise this Category.

Both Darryl and Grandma give Votes for Gallery... furthermore, you obtain rewards from the Gallery when you register any item.

Landscape
xxxxxxxxx

'Beautiful Paths' is the term for your Landscape Point total.  As three of the four Characters vote for this Category, it is a very good idea to have Paths on your Farm and place as many Decorations as possible within their 'sphere of influence'.  I have covered the details of Paths and Landscaping elsewhere on this site.  The better the Path, the more points you receive when Decorations are placed next to it or near it.  The Macaron Path, Pebble Path and Snow Path each are worth 50 Landscape Points.  The Snow Path no longer is available but the other two can be purchased in the Paths Menu for 1 RC each.  The Wooden Path is worth 35 Landscape Points and costs 50000 Coins.  Next best is the Forest Path worth 25 Landscape Points with a price of 15000 Coins.  If you have Buddies, however, they can send Forest Paths and Stone and Flower Paths to you.  To send, go to the Special Gifts Buddy Menu.  You can send a Stone and Flower Path to a Buddy for 4000 Coins and a Forest Path for 12000 Coins.  You actually can send a Macaron Path to a Buddy for 1 RC.  There are Buddy Level requirements for sending some of the Special Gifts.

Remember that Landscape Point total is the total of the value of ALL the Paths PLUS the Decorations that are close enough to those Paths to boost Points.

In the past, you needed less than 2300 Landscape Points to achieve maximum... not certain what the current requirement is but here are some farmers who have less than that and their results in the current contest:


1059 Landscape Points: 16/24 Votes

1421 Landscape Points: 19/24 Votes

1484 Landscape Points: 20/24 Votes

1720 Landscape Points: 21/24 Votes


How to Maximise Landscape Points
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx



First of all, you will not be able to move any Paths or perhaps even set any new Paths now if you have Pets roaming about your Farm.  You must place all of them in the Pet House before you can set new Paths or move existing Paths, including Water Paths as well as those on the land.

Remember that placement of Decorations and Bases is everything.  A Decoration or Base will give additional Landscape Points only if it is placed near a Path that has not used its maximum number of Points yet.  For example, the Macaron Path can give a boost of 50 Landscape Points when Decorations are placed close to it.  Once that amount is reached, however, piling more Decorations or Bases near it counts for nothing.  Use the Move Tool to hover over various spots to see how your Landscape Points will be affected.


Pet Category
xxxxxxxxxx

This is a new Category and only Grandma votes for it.  To gain 12 Votes from Grandma each day for the Pet Category, you need a total of 4 Pets, each wearing a piece of equipment and 2 pieces of apparel.  A Buddy Pet on your Farm at the time you take your photograph will NOT count.  That was a temporary glitch.

You can purchase apparel for a temporary period in order to take a snapshot that will give you more Votes for this category.

High Level Farm
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Only Dad gives votes for a 'high level farm'.  At Level 117, HM. Freyashawk received only 11 Votes for this category in previous contests but now is receiving 16/18 at Level 120.

Here are some current results:

Level 40: 6/18 Votes

Level 47: 6/18 Votes

Level 48: 7/18 Votes

Level 63: 8/18

Level 76: 10/18 Votes

Level 79: 10/18 Votes

(Thanks to my neighbours who sent this information to me)


Theme Items

As of 9 May, the new premium Decorations finally have been added to the Theme List.

This Contest differs from others in that you can obtain multiple votes from the Characters by having Theme Decorations from the past, rather than being forced to buy the NEW premium Theme decorations to gain a high score from theme.  I am listing the values below.  I am not certain if this is intended or not, however, as well as the odd omission currently of the three NEW premium Decorations from the Theme Book.

N.B.  Go directly to the Gallery to see if a Decoration is available for purchase now.  I will add more information later about the Theme items that are available in the Lucky Wheel/Buddy Share Box.  I have listed those that can be found currently in the Wheel but had no luck whatsoever landing on any of them when I spun my Wheel so am collecting prices slowly.

Please be aware that often you can find premium decorations both in a current special sale offer on the top right of your screen AND in one of the Boutique Shops in your Market.  If you see the item in a special sale offer, however, you are best served by purchasing it in that way, as it usually is bundled with other items, including farm aids and/or Stove House Recipes and RC.  These sale offers expire at different times so the items I have listed below may no longer be available in a special sale offer in a day or two.

Cow Starry Sky Activity Stage Activity

As of Friday, 27 April, a new Activity Stage activity can be found... the new location of the Activity Stage is at the top of your farm, to the right of the Gallery.

You have 7 and a half days from the time of posting this to complete the activity.  The final Reward is the Bunny with a Mushroom Decoration.  It is stackable and gives a Purple Gift Box when cleaned. It can be stacked on the Green Base.

For this activity, you will activate a series of tasks by using a Wand.  You receive one Wand every day.  You can purchase another Wand before reset by paying 2 RC.

N.B.  You can perform the tasks in any order... I have given arbitrary numbers to each star set.

WARNING:  Once activated, you must complete all three tasks within the space of 2 hours before the option expires.  If you complete only one or two, you will be forced to do them all again.

For those Farmers who have access to the Fishery, refrain from casting a net if you intend to complete all the tasks now!

OLD STARRY SKY ACTIVITIES
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If you did not complete one of the old Starry Sky Activities, you can scroll to the left once you open the Activity Stage to access the old ones as well as the new one.  You can use your Wand evidently to complete ANY of the tasks in ANY of the Starry Sky Constellations.  There is a post on this site for every old Starry Sky Activity.  If you type Starry Sky into Search, you should be able to find links to all of them.

Note from Freyashawk

Note from Freyashawk:  I would like to thank each and every farmer who voted for my farm, HM. Freyashawk in the last Farm Beauty Contest.  Thanks to your generous votes, my farm ranked 7th!  I owe you a debt of gratitude and hope that my site continues to help you to make the game more enjoyable!

At the end of this post, you will find a description of the new Sushi Friendship Flower with rewards as well as the materials lists for the new Tree Nursery Rooms.

King's Day Market Quest and Crown Balloons Collection Mission



(Above, a photograph of 'Tompouce', the traditional Dutch sweet that honours Konigsday in the Netherlands and is featured in the Quest)

Hard on the heels of the new update, the usual 11 day Friday Quest and Collection Mission have been released.  If you are playing on Kindle and game did not update automatically, you may need to update from App Store before you will be able to access this Quest.  It appeared on Kindle before it appeared on IOS.

The post that deals with all aspects of the new update, including all material lists for expansions and upgrades, is below this one, but here is a link:

Update with Darryl's House, 32 x 32 Seaside Expansion, new Sea Resort Levels and Sea Plane Seats

Binding your Farm to Google Play:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Another new feature of the update, which should be very attractive to many players is the ability to bind your farm to Google Play instead of Facebook or Game Centre.  I suggested this to FunPlus a long time ago and am very glad it finally has been implemented, as some of Facebook's regulations are tiresome.

Note from Freyashawk:  I do not allow any advertising on my site.  I try to publish information about any and all new options in the game in a timely manner.  I have had this site for five years and in that time, I hope my work has allowed farmers to enjoy the game more because of my guide.  I am not a Power Farmer.  I spend more time writing about the game probably than tapping on items in the game but if you feel that my guide has helped you, please do consider sending votes to my farm, HM. Freyashawk (formerly Harvest Moon F.D.C.) in the Farm Beauty Contest.  It really does mean a great deal to me to know that my work is appreciated.  Every one should be able to obtain the Reward Decoration in the Contest (and my site always has a post to help farmers maximise their farms to receive the required 4000 Votes) but once you have helped your Buddies, and especially near the end of the Contest, when my rating tends to drop rather alarmingly, please consider voting for HM. Freyashawk if you feel my efforts are worth anything.  Placing in the top 10 is important to me, partly because my Facebook Groups carry the name of Freyashawk.  What do they call it in business? Brand visibility?  I feel it may help new farmers find our groups on Facebook.  Apart from that, however, it inspires me to continue to write this guide.  Many thanks to all those loyal and truly kind farmers who vote for my farm!

Posting this in your own Group
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If you have your own Seaside Facebook Group, you are more than welcome to post a link to this page, but please do not use my work without giving me credit.  There is no reason on earth not to give credit to Freyashawk for the guide as I am happy for you to post a link if you wish.

Recipe for Tompouce
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The following recipe uses American measurements I believe.  Unfortunately, I have not been able to make it myself.

Ingredients:

For the Pastry Cream:

2 cups of Milk
1 Vanilla Bean
3/4 cup of Sugar
4 Egg Yolks (save the Egg Whites)
2 Tablespoons of Flour
1 Envelope of Gelatine

For the Puff Pastry:

2 square sheets of Puff Pastry (9 inches)

For the Royal Icing:

1 Egg White
1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
2 cups of Powdered Sugar

Decorations:

You can add flags or Orange colour

Instructions:

Add milk to saucepan with the Vanilla Bean, stir well.  Add half of the Sugar and bring the milk to a boil.

Whisk the other half of the Sugar with the Egg Yolks in a bowl and then add the flour, stirring well.  Pour a little of the warm milk mixture into the bowl, mix will and then add the contents of the bowl to the saucepan carefully and gradually, always stirring.

Boil everything gently (at lowest temperature) for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.

Turn off the cooker and add the gelatine.

Pour the mixture into a square dish, cover with plastic wrap and place it in the fridge for 2 to 3 hours.

Take the Puff Pastry, thawing first if frozen and then pricking the sheets repeatedly with a fork.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and bake the pastry for 20 minutes, pressing the dough with a clean towel every 5 minutes.  If you do not do this, the pastry will puff too much for this dish.

After 20 minutes, reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees and bake for an additional 10 minutes.

Remove pastry from oven and cut into 16 equal squares.  While the pastry cools, make the Royal Icing as follows:

Combine egg white with vanilla extract until frothy.  Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue beating until you have stiff peaks.

You should have a total of 32 squares of pastry.  Decorate 16 of these with the icing.  Take the filling from the fridge and spread on the other 16 squares of pastry.  Add the top layer with the Royal Icing to each.

Further decorate with the flag of the Netherlands or whatever else takes your fancy.

Update including Darryl's House and new Sea Resort Levels and Expansions

The new update includes the addition of Darryl's House, a sort of playhouse or 'Wendy House' where you can purchase and place a variety of furniture items as well as changing floor and wallpaper, more importantly, new Sea Resort expansions in the form of Levels 9 through 11 and finally the requirements for the new 32 x 32 Seaside Farm Expansion.  I have added the requirements for the new Passenger Seats on the Sea Plane as well.  The ability to bind your farm to Google Play is a welcome improvement.

Here is a link to my original Post for the Sea Plane and seat upgrades as well as Attractions and their upgrades:

Sea Plane and Upgrades, Sea Resort Attractions and Upgrades

TIP: Do NOT collect your points from shops in Sea Resort if you can update your game until you have performed the update. They then WILL count towards Level 9 totals.  See section below on how the Sea Resort Points are used once you have the update and came to update at Level 8 with accumulated Resort Points.

Incidentally, you will find Update Gifts in the form of 6 Super Watering Cans, 150 OP and 1 RC in a message from Felicia.

Many thanks to Cindy Dale Keating, one of our valued administrators in the Family Farm Seaside Freyashawk Group for her support and help.  Thanks to Elizabeth Puglisi, also an administrator of our Group for sharing her White Wine Crab and Macadamia Salad with me so that I could complete the upgrades to the Paradise Restaurant as quickly as possible for this post.

Binding your Farm to Google Play:

Another new feature of the update, which should be very attractive to many players is the ability to bind your farm to Google Play instead of Facebook or Game Centre.  I suggested this to FunPlus a long time ago and am very glad it finally has been implemented, as some of Facebook's regulations are tiresome.

Darryl's House
xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Darryl's House is a new option that exists next to the original Building Area on your Seaside Farm.  There are a total of four plots that are allocated to Darryl's House.  It is located between the Building Area and the Gallery.

By completing Darryl's House, you will meet new requirements for a Seaside Farm expansion but beyond this, you will receive two gifts per day from the House and Darryl.  One is based on the Level you have for Darryl's House and is a gift box below the actual House.  The other is obtained by accessing the interior of the House and tapping on the gift bag over Darryl's head.  Both will be available once daily at reset.

Tap on the unfinished House to obtain the first expansion.  The only requirement is:

Reach Level 23.

Once the house is built, you will be required to look in the wardrobe for clothing changes.  He has a pair of jim jams.

You then need to place a Bed, which you will find in a new building called the Furniture Warehouse.  Here you can obtain furniture for the House.

To unlock the 2nd area:

Have 10 House Points
Save and use 10000 Coins to unlock the area
Use 30 Lily to unlock the area

To unlock the 3rd area:

Have 20 House Points
Save and use 20000 Coins to unlock the area
Use 10 Roasted Tomato Soup to unlock the area

To unlock the 4th and final area:

Have 45 House Points
Save and use 50000 Coins to unlock the area
Use 10 Stuffed Turkey to unlock the area

Furnishing Level Rewards:  These are on timers.

There is a little Quest that accompanies the new House option:

My new House:

My New House 1
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Darrykl:  We are such good friends.  You must miss me a bit when I'm at my own farm, right?  Never mind.  I decided to stay near here and keep you company.  But I want to build a house to live in.  Can you help me?

Place 2 Brown Wooden Chairs in Darryl's House
  Skip for 5 RC

You will find these in the Chair tab of the Furniture Warehouse for 1000 Coins

Place 1 Round Wooden Table in Darryl's House
  Skip for 5 RC

You will find this in the Table tab of the Furniture Warehouse for 1000 Coins

Reach 10 House Points
  Skip for 10 RC
  This will occur when you have placed the required furniture items as each item has a specific House Point value attached to it.

Reward: 1000 Coins, 230 XP

Darryl:  Now we can add m ore space to the House.  Make it bigger!

My New House 2
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Darryl:  I feel like the house is missing something: a kitchen!  I always have wanted to cook as well as Felicia.  Her pancakes are fabulous!

Prepare 12 bowls of Roasted Tomato Soup
  Skip for 12 RC
  Each requires 2 Ketchup and 1 Egg Soup

Place 1 Stove in Darryl's House
  Skip for 5 RC

Expand to the third area to be able to buy a Stove

Reach 20 House Points
  Skip for 3 RC

Note that each item of furniture has a House Point value.  When you purchase an item with an RC price, it is worth more than coin price items.  You need to raise your House Points to 20 before you can expand to the third area which is a requirement for unlocking the Stove!

Rewards: 1000 Coins, 230 XP, 1 Fancy (Blue) Bed

Darryl:  Great!  We can add another area now.  Try to open the whole house.  There is no such thing as too much living space after all!

N.B.  Find the Fancy Bed in your Gift Box and place in Darryl's House to raise the House Point total.  It has a value of 4 House Points.

How to Decorate Darryl's House
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The Key to the House, whether to buy new furniture, move existing furniture or to store items is the little Furniture Warehouse building.  Access that by tapping on it at any time and you should see a Move tool at the top right of the screen as well as the Shop tabs at the bottom.

You earn House Points by buying and placing new items.  Please look at the Furniture Warehouse Menu to see all House Point values for each type of furniture.  The RC furniture is worth more than the Coin price furniture for the most part.

Note that certain types of furniture have a maximum limit for the points you can obtain by purchasing and placing them.  For example, you can have a maximum of 9 Chairs of any kind that will count for points.

Storing and Moving Items
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

To store or move any item IN the House, use the Move Tool by tapping on it.  A new Tool Menu will open allowing you to move it, turn it, leave it where it stands and finally store it.

Actually, if you simply wish to move or store items, you can use the regular Move Tool in the general Farm Tool Menu to move or store any items in Darryl's House provided only that you have opened the House to display the interior.

It is when you wish to retrieve stored items from the Furniture Warehouse that you must access the actual Furniture Warehouse Building.

Significance of House Points
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Your House Point total is linked to some other options in the game.  Having a total of 60 House Points is a requirement for the new and largest expansion of the Seaside Farm.

Your House Point total is linked to the new Furnishing Level shown to the right of the Furniture Warehouse.  When you tap on it, you should see a timer and a gift.  The list of 'Possible Rewards' becomes more comprehensive when your Furnishing Level increases.  At Level 8, for example, you can receive the following:

Coins, TC, Super Fertiliser, (some item that will not load at the moment), Super Watering Can, Gasoline (Petrol), Lucky Wheel Tokens

60 House Points will give you a Furnishing Level of 6.  The biggest difference between Level 6 and Level 8 Rewards is regular Organic Fertiliser and Watering Cans instead of the more potent varieties.

125 House Points are required to reach Level 9.
160 House Points are required to reach Level 10.

Level 9 does not give different Rewards from those given at Level 8 but you may receive a slightly larger number of Rewards.  The Rewards are not that significant at any level.

I raised my Furnishing Level to 9 only to be able to write this guide.  It was a waste of RC really... you cannot purchase enough Coins items to reach the point total needed and in fact, the House now is stupidly overcrowded.

To reach the higher levels, however, you must spend RC.  At this point in time, the highest House Point total NEEDED is 60.  This may change!

Note on 20 May:  With the addition of the Wedding Theme, you now can raise your total House Point level to 11 and possibly even 12 if you buy two of the Flower Petal Shooters, each worth 15 points.

The Effect of Storing Furniture
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Your Furnishing Level and House Point total depends on the furnishings actually in your House. When you store any item, your House Points may be affected.  Bear this in mind.  I have a sneaking suspicion that they may add a new Category to the Farm Beauty Contest in the future that is based on Darryl's House. 

How the System Works
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Every item of furniture that can be placed in Darryl's House, apart from 'Special Furniture' has a point value and a category in which it belongs.  Every category allows a specific number of items of that type to be counted towards house point total.  If you exceed the total number of items allowed, placement of further items in THAT category will not add to your House Point total and therefore will not serve to increase your House Level.

Perhaps it is easiest if I give an example.

If you open the House Menu, either for the Furniture Store or the Furniture Warehouse, you should see a little window at the top left of the screen.  This will give you your current House Level with the total number of House Points you have and beneath it, a category of furniture with the maximum number of items in that category that will count.

The first category is Chairs and the maximum allowed is 9, which if you have placed 9, will display a notification of:  Max Counted: 9/9.

Two sub-categories to the right is Beds.  You will see that you are allowed a total of 2 Beds.  The Standard Bed with which you start only has a House Point value of 2.  If it is placed currently in your House, only one more Bed will be counted.  If you placed the Fancy Blue Bed you obtained as a Quest Reward for the original Darryl House quests, you will have a total of 6 points from that Bed plus the 2 Points for the Standard Bed.  That gives you a total of 8 points for Beds. 

All other Beds that you can obtain have higher values than this but if you place them in addition to the two mentioned, you will not raise your House Point total.  By removing the Standard Bed and the Fancy Blue Bed and placing two of the Beds that have a House Point value of 15 each, you will be given credit for 20 House Points instead of 8.

How to Retrieve Stored Items
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

When you access the Furniture Warehouse, you will see a little icon of a Warehouse above the Shop Menu.  It will show the Furniture Store by default.  Tap on it to change that to Furniture Warehouse and you will have access to any items you have stored.

Darryl's House on Screen
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Go to Settings, Switch and for Darryl's House Interior, choose 'Off' to make the house smaller on your screen.  In fact, it is quite pretty.  (Thanks, Cindy!)

Darryl's Daily Gift
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If you do not put him to bed permanently (ha ha!), Darryl will be on a sort of endless pacing manoeuvre throughout the day and night with little icons over his head that indicate various tips and notifications.  Each day, however, you should see a little gift bag at some point over his head.  Tap on that to receive gifts that can include TC.  Again, not really that significant in value, but I suppose every item helps a little.

Tree Nursery Search
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

There now is a Search option in the Tree Nursery which should make it easier to find a specific Tree needed for a Quest task.

Sea Resort Building
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

You still have two separate tabs in the building and the building can be altered in physical architecture depending on your Level.

How Sea Level Points are Used
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The first tab is Holiday Retreat giving the total Sea Resort Points needed to reach the next Level.  Prior to the update, if you had reached Level 8, all this tab would show would be MAX Level 8.  Now it appears to start players with 400000 Points.  A total of 650000 Points is needed to reach Level 9.

The second tab is the Resort Boutique.  You will see a note to the effect that the current Max Resort Level is 11 and your current accumulated Resort Points will be Points you earned after reaching Level 8 but PRIOR to the update.

These old Points can be used only to purchase Boutique Decorations in this shop.  In other words, if you do not have the update yet, the Sea Resort points you are earning can be used only to buy Decorations.

New Boutique Requirement
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If you had reached Level 8 BEFORE the update, you will have the use of all 'Accumulated Points' after the Level 8 total was reached.  If, however, you did not reach Level 8 before the update, you now must attain the new maximum Level 11 before you will begin to accumulate any points that can be used for the Sea Resort Boutique.

New Seaside Farm Expansion

You now can expand your farm to 32 x 32.

Requirements are:

Have 60 House Points in Darryl's House

Produce 500 bundles of Angora Velvet to buy the expansion
  Angora Velvet is produced by the Angora Rabbit using the Level 5 Angora Velvet Gadget but the Rabbit must be fed Fruit Platter, not Carrots.  You can use Goldfinger to produce Angora Velvet even if you not have the Fruit Platter Gadget. You do NOT need to produce any new Angora Velvet if you have stored 500 bundles in your Barn previously.

New Economy Seats on Sea Plane
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Note that you now can have a total of 16 Seats on the Sea Plane, but if you have not progressed beyond Level 8, the maximum number you can use is 12 and that only if you have purchased all Attractions and upgraded all of them, including the Sea Volcano,.  So for many players, there is no reason to rush to unlock all the new Seats.

50 Watermelon Juice
20 Wrench
700000 Coins

For the 10th Economy Seat:

New Paradise Restaurant and Parasailing Boat
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

After reaching the levels beyond Level 8, you will find a new business in the Sea Resort in the form of the Paradise Restaurant and a new Attraction in the form of the Parasailing Boat.

When you complete the Level 10 Expansion, you unlock the Paradise.

For the first upgrade, you will need:

50 Lemon Cakes
10 Wooden Cylinders
50 Tofu Vegetable Soup
50 Wine

For the 2nd upgrade to the Paradise Restaurant, you will need:

30 Turkey Sausage (27 TC each if you do not wish to make them)

50 White Wine Crab (no option to skip)
50 Macadamia Salad (no option to skip)

(Thanks to one of our administrators, Elizabeth Puglisi, for sharing her White Wine Crabs and Macadamia Salads with me so I could log this quickly!)

For the 3rd upgrade to the Paradise Restaurant, you will need:

10 Showcase Design (1 RC each)
10 Wooden Panels (no option to pay instead of crafting)
20 Vegetable Rolls (no option to pay instead)
20 Salsa Verde (no option to pay instead)

This is the final upgrade.  The same rules apply here as to the other shops in the Sea Resort.  With all three upgrades, you will have four slots for a single item in your initial Showcase.  Unlock the 2nd Showcase when you sell a total of 3 items.  The third by selling 297 and the fourth by selling 500.
