Creating giant sized snacks
My new favorite web site is Pimp My Snack, where people recreate typical snacks but make them bigger and better. I'm keeping this one in mind for next Easter: Giant Creme Egg! This guy combined 22 Cadbury creme eggs into one giant egg, and I have to say it looks delicious. Then he sold the monster on eBay for &164;17.03.
I don't know what it is about changing the size of something, but I'm smitten with mini items (like baby chocolate bread puddings I made recently and have been meaning to write up) and maxi items. There's something about creating a homemade Reeses Mothership that I just adore.
