The picture you speak of Stefan, is the marzipan pizza Hans and I did for
the Crown Tourney event when, after the 'light lunch' that was offered to
the Crown was over, "just making sure they had enough", Hans dressed in the
uniform and delivered the "pizza".  They *loved* it!!  And they ate it and
shared it all around.  They were hit with one after another soltie and loved
every one and ate them all!  After they were through playing with them
anyway.
As for the pizza's I made for cooks guild, here are the three that I have
pictures of.  I never got a picture of the hashbrown crust pizza.  Look here
and hit the next button for the other two.  Oh.  If you press pervious you
will see a great picture of Master Chirhart and his ladywife Mistress Jeanne
