Moby Picks. Moby Dick? No, Moby Picks!

I had to laugh when I saw the name of these little appetizer picks! Something for the literary foodie?

Literary teas

  • Tuesday, January 21, 2014



Not sure whether these taste any different but Steep Show Teas sure know the way to a bibliophile's heart! Which literary tea suits your taste?

I scream for Sweeter than Fiction ice-cream!

  • Saturday, July 20, 2013

I'm of the opinion that ice cream is a separate food group. And for a bibliophile slash ice cream lover to  stumble upon Sweeter than Fiction ice cream ... can anyone agree with what's at the bottom of tub of Romeo and Juliet ice cream? {Megan Redish}
 
Check out the flavours and more awesome packaging after the jump!



Novel Teas - read and drink!

  • Friday, April 05, 2013


I love tea. But this is even better -- tea and literary quotes! How cute is that?

Roald Dahl's food goodies ... for real!

  • Saturday, October 20, 2012

All that fictional food in Roald Dahl's books are actually real. I just want to feast my eyes on the Quentin Blake artwork of the packaging; I have no idea whether they taste as good as they seem in the books ... but we can always imagine whizzpopping or having a cake with Matilda, right? :)

{You can buy them at Tesco, if you're in the UK.}
 









Books and Balls!

Bakerella just made me laugh out loud! I adore these cake balls topped with mini books. Oh the detail! Check out the full post here.

Bakerella has baked up some creepy goodness with these button cookies ... beware the Mother, Coraline, my dear.

More bookish cupcakes!

Victoria's Kitchen was featured with their cupcakes before. I had to repost because now they have The Book Thief among the titles!

A round of tea and cookies in (Alice in) Wonderland!

  • Saturday, July 07, 2012

You must be mad to turn these down ... especially if you're an Alice in Wonderland fan. If you don't like cookies, I threw in some cupcakes for you!

Eat your books!

  • Sunday, June 10, 2012


I seem to be having a bit of a foodie binge on this book blog! Here's another ...
if you fancy a bite ... out of a book, literally? You'll love these fruit leather and white chocolate sweets. They're surprisingly easy to make. Go check out how to make these over at Hungry Happenings!

Hope you're having a wonderful Sunday!

It's an edible cookbook!

  • Saturday, June 09, 2012

This is really cool - the first cookbook that you can read, cook, then eat! You start by opening up your book - lasagna sheets of course ... Click on to see how this book becomes lunch!






Love that that it's still readable even when it's cooked!


The Hunger Games ... more from Fictional Food!

I'm a bit of Fictionalfoodie. What's not to love about the creativity of the creator of these yummy bookish creations. Here's the entire The Hunger Games trilogy in a three-tiered cake!

Two more amazing edible Hunger Games goodies after the jump!

The Hunger Games made me hungry!

  • Friday, March 23, 2012

Did you watch it yet? Did you brave those crazy lines during the premiere?

In celebration of The Hunger Games movie, won't you take a bite out of one of these ....

The cake err book that started it all!
Or a bite out of each cupcake book, maybe?

Or maybe nibble on some of these sugar cookies?
If you think that those look amazing, Fictional Food (... is genius) ... is also cooking up its Hunger Games Fictional Food Hit List where the food mentioned in the book is recreated. So you can check out Perfectly Prim Goat Cheese, Katniss-style Roasted Rabbit, Mr. Mellark's Cookies ... the list goes on!

Yummy Harry Potter cakes

I realized that like me, many have made Harry Potter very much a part of their lives. You can check out all my Harry Potter related posts here.

Over at Cake Wrecks, I was blown away by the creativity and love put into each edible Harry Potter themed cake (or cupcake!). I'd prefer any of these over Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans!

Check out some of my favourites below, and after the jump. (Thanks Kathy, for the lead! It made my day!)
A magical object? Your house colours? Take your pick!

Hagrid fan? Im betting this cute version of him will make you love him even more.
{Via.}

But wait, can't have Hagrid without his hut can we?
{Mollie.}

Incredible detail of the Hogwarts Express!

I am waiting for the sorting hat to say something. 
And check out the Hogwarts Express art on the cake itself!

Quidditch more your style? Looky here!

... don't forget your golden snitch, or three, as yummy chocolate truffles!
