Steps:
- Make the crepes: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and sugar. Add the eggs and whisk to incorporate. Gradually whisk in the warm milk and melted butter, alternating between additions.
- Divide the batter evenly between 3 medium bowls. Add the red food coloring to a bowl and whisk until fully incorporated and the batter is evenly colored. Repeat with the orange and green food coloring and remaining bowls of batter.
- Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in ¼ cup (40 G) of the green crepe batter and tilt the pan to cover evenly. Cook until the surface begins to gently bubble, 2-3 minutes, then flip and continue cooking for another minute, until cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking each color crepe separately on a wire rack. Let the crepes cool for 15-20 minutes.
- Make the whipped cream fillings: Add 2 cups (480 ml) of whipped cream to each of 3 medium bowls. Add the strawberry purée and 2 tablespoons crushed freeze-dried strawberries to a bowl of whipped cream and mix until well combined. Add the passion fruit juice to another bowl and mix until well combined. Add the lime juice and 2 tablespoons lime zest to the last bowl and mix until well combined.
- To assemble, place a green crepe on a serving platter. Spread with 2 tablespoons of the lime filling. Continue stacking the green crepes and lime filling, then repeat with the orange crepes and passion fruit filling, then the red crepes and strawberry filling. Spread the remaining cup of whipped cream evenly over the top and sides of the cake.
- Top the cake with the halved strawberries, then sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of lime zest and remaining teaspoon of crushed freeze-dried strawberries. Drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of passion fruit juice.
- Slice and serve.
- Enjoy!

CREPES WITH ORANGE ZEST AND CHOCOLATE
Steps:
- In a medium-size mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, egg, and salt. Heat a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot add a teaspoon of butter and swirl the pan to coat the surface of the pan with the melted butter. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan and tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface in a smooth and even layer. After 2 minutes, lift up an edge of the crepe with a spatula to see if it is browning. When the underside has begun to brown, flip the crepe and cook the other side until it is also brown; about 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Repeat with the remaining 2 teaspoons butter and remaining batter.
- In large 10-inch saute pan, melt 1/2 cup butter, granulated sugar, and orange zest together. Add 1 crepe at time and cover it with the orange butter. Fold each crepe in half, and then in half again, to make a triangle and place it on a warm plate. Repeat these steps to cook the remaining crepes. Pour the melted chocolate over the crepe and dust it with powdered sugar. Drizzle the Grand Marnier over it and light it at the table in front of the guest. Always use caution. Serve hot.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine flour, eggs, butter, and sugar, stirring until ingredients are slightly mixed.
- Add the milk ½ cup (120 ml) at a time, stirring vigorously, making sure the milk is completely incorporated into the batter and that the batter is smooth before adding more milk.

- Spread half of the chocolate hazelnut spread on half of the crepe.
- Lay half of the strawberries on the chocolate spread.
