Conventional wisdom tells us not to play with our food. Well, that wisdom can now take a hike because we’ve seen artist Carl Warner’s foodscapes. The process starts with the artist drawing a sketch of the desired landscape/ foodscape, creating the model comes next, and the last step is taking the photographs and retouching them …
A double barreled crossbow that can shoot marshmallows to a distance of 30 feet. How’s that for a fight? Each of its barrels have room for 25 mini marshmallows so you can fire rapidly without running out of ammo too quick. And the harmless marshmallows aren’t quite likely to hurt someone in the domestic warfare. …
I have no idea what I’m going to do with the Gingerbread Playhouse, but considering it is 381 pounds of gourmet gingerbread and 517 pounds of royal icing, I’d just eat it. It has Giant cookies, lollipops, gummies, mints, gumdrops, candy-encrusted roof and a lolipop tree inside the house. Playing with food is going to …
Miniature items have an inherent “cute” factor embedded into them and the work of Stéphanie Kilgast certainly does prove the point. She creates miniature food for dollhouses in 1:12 scale. Considering her degree in architecture, you can expect the dollhouses look as delicious as the food. You can get yourself a serving of the tiny …
A shop in Santa Cruz, California is selling marijuana-flavored ice cream for medicinal purpose, of course. Makers of the ice cream “Crème De Canna” say each bite is equivalent to four or five puffs of a really good cigarette. This ice cream has more calories than the conventional ice cream, but I don’t think that is going to deter patrons. All that is needed to get the ice cream is 15 bucks and a medical marijuana card.

Everyone like chocolates, Armenians probably like it more, enough to create the world’s largest chocolate bar and get a place in Guinness World Records. The chocolate bar was made by Grand Candy Factory in Yerevan, Armenia and is 18.7 feet long, 9.2 feet wide, and 10 inches thick. Next month, the 9702 pound chocolate bar will be served to the public.

Created for a Steampunk cake contest, this cake looks like it is covered in brass and wood. Well, it isn’t, all that is just sugar and fondant put to good use. Wheels were placed so that they appeared to support the Steampunk structure, with the metallic cake-octopus on the top. The best part is that the cake is completely edible, I have no idea how those “gems” were made, but the cake from Flickr user Artisan Cake Company somehow nails it all down, complete with ornate detailing.

Texas State Fair seems to be in deep fry mode because a lot of culinary delights it has to offer have the words “deep fried” in them. And then there’s beer, fried. We’ve always loved our beer chilled but Mark Zamble apparently appreciates it fried. Weird as it may initially sound, it’s got beer; also, …
Audrey Wells, a student at the University of Quebec at Montreal, has come up with the idea of using profile information and photographs of your Facebook as chocolate wrappers. The concept chocolate is apparently called Facebouffe, and as a concept, it is cool. As a product though, we won’t really love it.
For a gazillion uses that people could think of for the iPad, no one at Apple probably thought about it being used as a dish. A dish to eat food from. Leave that part to an iPad enthusiast “shiinaneko” who probably loves the device so much, he’d eat from it. Or hates it badly, depends …
