Cupcake Kebab

“Nora explains how she made her Neopolitan cupcake kebabs.”

Pumpkin-Apple-Pecan Pie

“Three pies in one? I’d expect worlds to collide and the end of space and time as we know it. There can only be one… pie!” w/ photos

Edible Bacon Lamp

“Long gone are the days bacon was just something that made you go ‘om nom nom’ as you shoved it down your throat, now it’s used to create virtually anything, even a night lamp… I wonder if the lightbulb actually cooks the bacon as you use the nightlamp to read a book or something. After you finish, you can just eat the bacon as a late snack and go to sleep a happy man. How awesome is that?!” w/ photos

Unpleasant Candy Discovery

“A guy wanted some chocolate so he bought a box of chocolate candies. And there he found… The most horrible thing is that he discovered it only in a penultimate candy, imagine how he felt bad after that.” w/ photos

Cancer-Fighting Curry

“Planning on eating healthily tonight? Ditch the salad and cook up a curry. An Indian chef claims to have created the ‘world’s healthiest meal’ – a chicken and blueberry curry with goji berry pilau rice. It blends traditional ingredients feted for their health benefits with contemporary ’superfoods’ said to help stave off everything from cancer to Alzheimer’s disease. A single plate is said to contain as many health-boosting antioxidants as 49 bowls of spinach, 23 bunches of grapes or nine helpings of broccoli. If that weren’t enough, it tastes pretty good and costs no more than $2.50 per portion. Gurpareet Bains, who devised the dish, said: ‘Combining these two genres of foodstuffs seemed logical in any quest to find the world’s healthiest meal.” w/ photos

Italian Invents Edible Plates

“An Italian catering boss is planning to clean up with an amazing range of edible plates for schools – that never need washing. Tiziano Vicentini made the plates out of a kind of bread dough – tough enough to last a lunchtime but tasty enough to eat afterwards. Tiziano, 50, of Milan, says he had the brainwave after years of watching schools waste money on plastic plates and dishes and expensive dishwashers.” w/ photo

2,296ft Salami Sandwich

“This is what they mean by ’super-sizing’ your sub.”

Red & Green Apple

“When Ken Morrish picked this apple off a tree in his garden, he thought a prankster had painted half of it red. But after inspecting it closely he realised that the remarkable split colours on the fruit were a natural phenomenon. And the bizarre apple turned Mr Morrish into something of a celebrity in his village with scores of neighbours queuing up to take a photograph of it. Experts say that the odds of finding an apple with such a perfect line between the green and the red are more than 1 million to one.” w/ photos

12ft Chocolate Eiffel Tower

“A 12ft-high model of the Eiffel Tower made entirely out of chocolate gave busy commuters a glimpse but not a taste of Paris today. The mouthwatering version of the famous landmark attracted hungry-looking glances when it appeared at St Pancras railway station, from which the Eurostar departs for the French capital. But passers-by hoping for a taste were out of luck as the tower was constructed to mark the launch of a new range of Thorntons European city-chic inspired chocolates and will be touring stores throughout the country over the coming weeks.” w/ photos

Happy Jalepeno Peppers

“Gardener Nigel Hollingworth had never tried growing peppers before – and wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Jalepeno peppers named after the Xalapa town in Veracruz, Mexico, are not really meant to grow in the cool British climes, so he assumed it would be an interesting experiment but not much of a success. However, in the end there were smiles all-round. The father-of-two couldn’t believe his eyes when he cut one open and saw a pair of eyes – complete with eyebrows – a nose and a big grinning mouth looking up at him.” w/ photo
