Xfce Custom Menuelement / Menueditor

So i’ve installed xubuntu (my first linux system 😉 ) and i want to add a custom menu to the taskbar. I know that i can add a menu, and change the file that this menu is using, but how do i create such a file? It would be possible to write one per hand, but i prefer a graphical method, since it’s nicer to use.
Alacarte was installed, but it was not working properly (meaning i couldn’t edit anything or edit another menufile).
I’ve been searching for a couple hours now, and the fix here is not working for me. 🙁
I hope anyone could help me.

Launching Alacarte after fresh install (starting, editing works, but cannot add stuff):

(alacarte:2614): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_accel_label_set_accel_closure: assertion 'gtk_accel_group_from_accel_closure (accel_closure) != NULL' failed

(alacarte:2614): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_accel_label_set_accel_closure: assertion 'gtk_accel_group_from_accel_closure (accel_closure) != NULL' failed

Using this patch, i get this (alacarte doesn’t start):

 Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/usr/bin/alacarte", line 23, in <module>
        from Alacarte.MainWindow import main
    ImportError: cannot import name main

Answer

Finally!
I used MenuLibre and it works perfectly!
The debian can be found here.
