Yum, Jupiter!

Jupiter Structural Layer Cake from Cakecrumbs

Behold the Jupiter Structural Layer Cake from Cakecrumbs! The spherical cake was constructed using two hemispheres complete with delicious representations of rock, ice and liquid metallic hydrogen that are thought to inhabit the planet’s core.

In cake speak, this translates to a core made of mudcake, surrounded by almond butter cake, surrounded by a tinted vanilla Madeira sponge. There’s a crumb coat of vanilla buttercream underneath the fondant.

Mmm, The Great Red Spot never tasted so goo.

Pizzaghetti In A Cup

A sloche is like a slushy. The frozen drink is available at Couche-Tard convenience marts. They have announced a new flavor just in time for summer. Pizzaghetti. Pizza. Spaghetti. Together at last in a cup.

Voici la publicité de la Sloche Pizzaghetti, disponible dans tous les dépanneurs Couche-Tard du Québec.
Cet été, vivez d’amour et d’eau frette avec Pizzaghetti !
Om nom nom nom !

Translated:
Here advertise the Sloche Pizzaghetti available in all Couche-Tard of Quebec.
This summer, experience love and shrink with water Pizzaghetti!
Om nom nom nom!

However, a little more digging uncovered this sad bit of info from Wikipedia:

Actual flavor of the “Pizza” half is strawberry, and the “Ghetti” half is kiwi.

Darn it.

Twinkies Return!

Hostess Twinkies Box

Twinkies are coming back. After falling apart in bankruptcy, Hostess Brands Inc. has emerged as a new company, Hostess Brands LLC. Buried in this news is an interesting tidbit.

From the WSJ:

But Mr. Metropoulos and his son, Daren, the co-CEO of Pabst Brewing Co. who is also heading up the reborn Hostess’s marketing strategy, expressed confidence they would be able to find skilled, nonunion workers near the four plants, which are in areas with high unemployment.

That’s right, Beer Twinkies! Finally, we can stop trying to make our own.

Oh, and there’s that whole union debate thing too: Teamsters vs. Hostess.
