Magpie Monday on Wednesday: Someone’s in the Kitchen…

Some tasty tidbits for you.

KIT KAT CAKE!

I have a real weakness for Kit Kats, but I’m convinced that the plentiful strawberries on top of this Kit Kate cake make it a healthy option. So it’s okay to just throw my face into it, right? Right?

Right.

PBJ 2.0.

DRINK UP!

From How Sweet It Is: Boozy Watermelon Granitas with Coconut Whipped Cream (it’s really the coconut whipped cream I want to try).

From That’s Nerdalicious: Zelda’s Lullaby cocktail (with video).

Well, this is different (from That’s Nerdalicious):

Next month Châteaux en Bordeaux’s Hausmann Famille will debut Coca-Cola flavored wine called “Rouge Sucette” (‘Red Lollipop’) across France. The new booze will be 9% ABV and will consist of 75% wine and 25% sugar, water, and soda flavoring. Apparently the move is part of an effort by France’s wine industry, who is struggling to capture a younger generation who is “more attracted to beer and spirits”.

If you love Harry Potter, puns, and beer, artist Anita Brown created some labels just for you. My favorite is below, but click Brown’s name to see the whole Harry Potter & The Beer series. Via.

THE KITCHEN WITCH.

Dana Staves examines the archetype of the Kitchen Witch in a number of films, including Waitress, Practical Magic, Like Water for ChocolateSimply Irresistible, Chocolat, and Stranger than Fiction.

BREAKFAST TACO.

I think I need more breakfast tacos in my life.

LET THEM EAT CAKE!

Charm City Cakes‘ children’s books cake is pretty special. Can you name all of these characters?

Whovians, this TARDIS could be yours…. If you asked Sugar Chef to make you one. Via.

AND LET THEM EAT CUPCAKES, TOO!

These Lady and the Tramp cupcakes by Cakes with Character are wonderfully detailed. Close-up photos of the cupcakes can be seen at Between the Pages.

Have a look at Slice of Cake‘s Alice in Wonderland cupcakes—love the variety! Via.

THAT’S THE WAY THE COOKIE CRUMBLES.

I’m impressed with the detail on these Avengers cookies by Honeycat Cookies—and, even though he’s not shown in this picture, Hawkeye got his own cookie, too. But where’s Black Widow? More photos at Between the Pages.
