Chocolate Cherry Death Star Explodes in Your Mouth

Posted on by

This chocolate cherry filled Death Star is the ultimate power in the universe. It will shatter your taste buds into a million gooey pieces as it fires at the pleasure centers of your brain like Alderaan. Get this in my mouth now!

Don’t worry. No single X-Wing can possibly destroy this amazingly geeky treat. If they fly into it’s trenches, they will just get stuck in the gooey center. The tractor beam on this Death Star actually works in reverse. It doesn’t pull you into it’s hangar bay, you can’t help but pull it toward your waiting mouth.

If only I could order about two dozen of these things, I would be happy.

Chocolate Gaming Dice Set Scores a Critical Hit on Your Taste Buds

Posted on by

D&D and RPG gamers know all about many-sided dice. But how often have you wished that you could roll the dice, score a critical hit and then eat them up? I know I have dreamed about it more than once. Well, with this awesome set of chocolate gaming dice, you can play and eat. Although if you are really hungry, it’s going to be a short game.

Chocolate Gaming Dice Set
This is a full set of chocolate gaming dice (d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20) made of Ghirardelli chocolate poured by hand from custom molds. Forget the game, just eat ‘em up.

The set is only $7.99(USD) from ThinkGeek. They melt in your mouth, not on your game table.


Chocolate Vinyl Record: Eat to the Beat

Posted on by

One of the disadvantages of vinyl records is that they degrade each time they’re used. Breakbot’s record exacerbates that, but it’s also better in one aspect: you can eat it after you’re sick of listening to it, because it’s made entirely out of chocolate.

The yummy storage device contains songs from the French DJ’s latest album By Your Side.

Here’s one of the tracks that comes out of the chocolate:

The chocolate record is limited to 120 copies and is available from Colette for about $22 (USD). You can get the non-edible but longer lasting record on Amazon.

Man Eats Own (Chocolate) Brain

Posted on by

If you ate your own brain, what does that make you? A zombie cannibal? A short-lived Hannibal? An attraction at a goth carnival? Or just dead? Fortunately Andy Millns will not be burdened with any of those associations, because he only ate a piece of chocolate cast from a mold made from a 3D print made from an MRI of his own brain. Which makes him a geek.

The cranial confectionery was the brainchild of 3D tech company Inition. I’ve already outlined the steps above, but in case you need something that makes more sense, watch the video below:

They would’ve skipped a couple of steps if they just used this 3D printer instead, although I guess it would take way longer. Inition also put up an Instructable for those interested in eating chocolate brain, including an MRI file containing a scan of Millns’ brain. I can’t decide which is weirder: eating a chocolate brain based on another person’s brain or one that’s based on your own brain. Or that Chocolate Rain song.

Chocolate Printer Now Available For Willy Wonka Wannabes

Posted on by

The 3D printer that uses chocolate as its “ink” now has a name – Choc Creator – and a price. As far as I’m concerned it’s a machine that dispenses chocolate, and that’s good enough for me. I don’t need chocolate to come in fancy shapes. Just print it directly onto my mouth.

Although it sounds like a delightful device made of pure imagination, come with me… and you’ll be… in a world of pure disappointment…ation. Unfortunately, Choc Creator is painfully slow:

Compounding its impracticality is its price: the Choc Creator costs £2,488 (~$4,000 USD). That’s without Oompa Loompas. Ridiculous! Ridiculous I say! But if you really want to be on the cutting edge of confectionery, head to Choc Edge’s website to reserve your own Choc Creator.

Too late for Easter: Chocolate printer to hit eBay in April, cost $4,000

Posted on by

Confection connoisseurs hoping to skip the whole "molded chocolate" routine for something more constructive won't have to wait long: Choc Edge's delectable 3D dessert printer is almost ready. The Choc Creator is the brainchild of Liang Hao and a kitchen of assistant cooks -- additional research at the University of Brunel, software by developer Delcam, oversight from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council and funding from the Research Councils UK's Digital Economy program. Hao founded Choc Edge to distribute the completed machines, the first of which will be available from eBay on April 10th. Of course, pre-orders are also available for £2,488, or just under $4,000. Yes, the price of printing your own sweets is steep, but when you take that first bite into your custom Engadget logo -- won't it be worth it?
