Life-sized Dalek Wedding Cakes: Doctor Chew

When you have (almost) life-sized Dalek wedding cakes, it must feel like you are being married at gunpoint. Plunger-point? MARRY HER OR BE EXTERMINATED! Okay, okay, I’m walking down the aisle already!

These cool Dalek wedding cakes were made by Dinkydoodle Designs and are probably the largest Dalek cakes we have ever seen. Each of these edible Daleks stood five feet-tall, but they weren’t the only Daleks at the wedding. The couple also had a Dalek ice sculpture and a sculpture with a Dalek and TARDIS on top of it. I’m sure the Dalek cakes were the main attraction at the event though. Aside from the bridal party that is.

They look deadly and delicious at the same time. Congrats to the couple on a great wedding and some amazing huge and intimidating cakes.

World’s Largest Gingerbread Village Looks Delicious

Forget the world’s largest gingerbread house. We have all heard the phrase “It takes a village” and a gingerbread village is exactly what we have here. It is on display at Texas A&M University. Let’s all crash the party. Gingerbread houses for everyone.

worlds largest gingerbread house 620x459magnify

The world’s largest gingerbread village was created by New York Chef Jon Lovitch. This village consists of 152 houses and 65 trees and weighs over 1.5 tons. It is made up of 500 pounds of gingerbread, 400 pounds of candy and 2,240 pounds of icing. That’s enough to give everyone who even looks at it a stomach ache.

It cost a few thousand dollars to complete, but it is now in the Guinness Book of World Records, so it was well worth it. It is too neat to eat, and anyway where would you start?

Christmas Tinner Puts an Entire Christmas Dinner into a Single Can

If Willy Wonka suddenly decided to move out of the candy making business into the canned foods business, Christmas Tinner would be a product he would make. Perhaps inspired by Christopher Godfrey’s 12-course meal in a can, Christmas Tinner is a complete canned meal made by UK gaming firm GAME. Inside the can you will find an entire layered Christmas dinner.

The layers include scrambled eggs and bacon in the first, followed by a pair of minced pies in the second layer. The third layer is turkey and potatoes with gravy in the next layer. The fifth layer has bread sauce and layer six is cranberry sauce. Layer seven is brussel sprouts with stuffing or broccoli with stuffing. I assume this is what we would have as cornbread stuffing in the US. Layer eight is roast carrots and parsnips, with the final layer, number nine, being Christmas pudding.

While I’m sure it would all be quite tasty served in the traditional method, it all sounds pretty disgusting in canned form.

Merry Christ-meth: Breaking Bad Gingerbread House

This time of year everybody is cooking. Well, sure, some of us are cooking in the kitchen and others are cooking in RVs, but one thing we can all cook up are cool gingerbread treats. Like this one. This is an awesome gingerbread homage to Breaking Bad.

This creation looks adorable and it comes from the Sugar Plum Cake Shop.  There’s Walt and Jesse with their Winnebago meth lab, a bag of blue meth and even a snowman DEA agent that is roughly the same shape as Hank. It’s pretty sweet. I mean literally.

It even has cotton candy fumes coming from the RV. Nice touch. It is too neat to eat.

Beef Jerky Business Cards for a Taste of Success

When it comes to business cards, it is all about making an impression. Sometimes that means a flashy card with great graphics. Sometimes it means a clever card that lights up or turns into a pop-up book or something. But nothing leaves a good impression like a tasty treat.

Meat Cards is doing things right. They’re laser-etching your contact information onto strips of beef jerky. Now you can make an impression by feeding their hunger. The cards are edible for up to a year. The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach after all.

Even if they eat it, they are bound to remember you.

Plate Cooker Heats Meals for Lone Diners

As the old saying goes, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” At the rate people are skipping meals these days, I think you can tweak that to, “Three square meals a day keeps the doctor away.” Skipping meals is unhealthy and basically messes with your digestive system. But with people so busy these days, who has the time to cook and eat three (or more) proper meals a day?

Working with that in mind, designer Ranhee Chung came up with the Plate Cooker concept.

Personalized PlateIt basically looks like a sandwich maker, except it doesn’t have grills on the inside. Instead, it has a plate with compartments to hold meat, soup, and veggies that’s just perfect to hold a balanced meal.

It’s essentially designed as a food heater, so it could individually heat frozen foods that you prepared earlier. A lot of people actually do this, and by this, we mean cook a big batch of good over the weekend and freeze it to be eaten in the succeeding week.

Pixelated Zelda Cookies: 8-Bit Bites

It’s dangerous to go alone on an empty stomach. Take these. Doesn’t Link look delicious? Legend of Zelda, meet the legend of my hunger. These adorable and beautiful looking cookies were made Trinh Phan aka TheCookieCrave and they really are a geek work of art.

And you have to give their maker credit, she could have just posted the photo online, basked in all of our adoration and kept the recipe for herself while she sold them, raking in the Rupees. But no. She has given the world the recipe on her blog so that we can all make them and enjoy.

Bacon Power Deodorant Proves Not Everything is Better with Bacon

Bacon deodorant changes your body odor into bacon odor, making everyone around you hungry for a good breakfast. Hey, when you are sweating like a pig, you might as well smell like one.
bacon deodorantmagnify

Bacon Power stick deodorant is made with bits of real bacon, so you know it works. Fat men and dogs will follow you like the Pied Piper, but it’s worth it to smell good. However, cannibalism may be a problem. If you find yourself shipwrecked on an island with others or among other survivors of a plane crash, throw it as far away from you as possible if you want to live.

It is only $9.99(USD) from J & D’s. Don’t just smell good, smell delicious!

Doctor Who 11th Doctor Cupcake: The Regeneration That Could Have Been

Check out this Doctor Who cupcake that looks just like the 11th Doctor. It shows us that that Steven Moffat really missed the boat with the latest regeneration. Why couldn’t he have regenerated into a delicious cupcake? Cupcakes are cool! Right?

Don’t tell me that a show full of cupcake people wouldn’t work. Give cupcake Doctor Who a sonic screwdriver and an edible companion and you have a show. And a TARDIS of course. When it is time to regenerate, he just melts and turns into batter, goes into the oven and turns into a new version. Yes, that is the weird way my mind works.

This geeky delight comes from Nerdache Cakes, who clearly know their way around sugar, flour, butter and a pastry bag.
