meaghan mountford — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 15:32:00 +0000

I have to admit, I’m fascinated by and very much appreciate when clever people find ways to take sweets and goodies to a deeper level of dark. Check out Sweetly Demented, a “confectionary line ranging from, the morbid, shabby chic, woodzie, tastefully disgusting & sometimes just plain rude.” These handmade chocolates, marshmallows, caramels and toffee are exquisitely crafted. Shown are the “Grandma,” the “Large Silver Buck’s Antler,” and the “Wood Grain Toffee.” Find the shop HERE.

What a wonderful place this Happy Lab must be for the science-minded sweet tooths, what with the jars and beakers filled with colorful candies. The shop is found at various locations in Australia, but I anxiously await its arrival elsewhere. Spotted on Eat Drink Chic.

Hungry as a Horse Spaghetti Measure

meaghan mountford — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 22:17:12 +0000

Despite the fact that I’ve been boiling spaghetti for over twenty years now, I still misjudge the amount almost every time. Guess I need this spaghetti measuring tool: one person, two people, hungry enough to eat a horse. Very clever. Spotted at Foodiggity, find it here at the Reykjavik Corner Store.

Hamburger Wrapping Paper

I suppose this means that you’ll have to give everybody six presents… two buns, the burger, cheese, lettuce and tomato. The hamburger wrapping paper is from Gift Couture, spotted on Incredible Things. Find more information about the paper and creators at Kickstarter: “Gift Couture will offer high-quality wrapping paper sets that feature original photography and design. Our main goal is to produce unique papers that coordinate together into conceptualized themes and sets.” They need a minimum number of orders to print the paper, and looks like they’ve reached their goal.

meaghan mountford — Fri, 02 Dec 2011 01:07:01 +0000

This could be my perfect cake, seeing as the Peanut Butter cup is one of my favorites to dig out of the trick or treat bag. Have you seen this? Find it HERE from Williams-Sonoma. Out of my price range for an afternoon snack, but pretty impressive.

Chocolate Space Invaders

meaghan mountford — Sun, 27 Nov 2011 13:50:02 +0000

Perfect for the video geek chocolate lover in your life, yes? Primarily those with an appreciation and respect for both fine chocolate and the brilliance of those great video game-making minds of the ’80s (maybe the ’70s?). The chocolate is “homemade from bean to bar” in New York. Check out how it’s made at the Chocolate Invader site. The chocolate comes in a laser-engraved wood box and with an Invader mini-poster, sticker and postcard.

Find the Chocolate Invader HERE.

Camera Cookie Cutters

meaghan mountford — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 19:44:14 +0000

I hereby declare another trend (I do a lot of trend-declaring, though I’m pretty sure there’s someone out there more qualified declaring trends way before I declare trends)… edible cameras. Like these or these. And since I’m a cookie gal myself and always on the hunt for new and clever cutters, I’m especially curious about these camera cookie cutters from the DIY Photography store. Luckily I have a set to review on its way to me, so be on the lookout for more news on the camera cookie cutter front soon!
