Body Bakery; mouth-watering for a certain clientele

Who did the business plan for this one, Jeffrey Dahmer?

“Of course, people were shocked and thought that I was mad when they saw the works. But once they knew the idea behind it, they understood and became interested in the work itself, instead of thinking that I am crazy.”

Thai artist Kittiwat Unarrom has a bakery in Ratchaburi, Thailand, where he sells these lovingly-made, home-baked loaves of bread. The ShapeAndColour blog has some video of him at work, plus more mouth-watering shots of the finished product. I don’t know how expensive these things are, but I’m already wondering if he takes requests. Just the thing for a party, don’t you think? You could really surprise the guest of honour (with, say, an ex? Hilarity, especially if you invite Claus von Bulow).

    They’re a bit too realistic, don’t you think? But a great way to celebrate a breakup; just get the head of your ex!

    that would be totally cool for hallowe’en night. would that make an absolutely rocking window display?

    That would be awesome! At Christmas the European butcher shops put flensed sheep heads in the window, so this is more or less the same kind of thing, only without the big, stary eyeballs.

    I wonder what Wandering Coyote will say when she sees this? A goth baker could really go to town with this idea.

    I can see big business in this. In the states, Halloween haunted houses are a big thing. imagine selling these pastries there.
    As long as you could knock them off at a cheap price.

    Yeah, IHOP could get into the act too – “Stack of Pancreas Breakfast Special”

    Oh yes, big with a certain crowd. I’m thinking Goth lunchbox tie-ins, all kinds of things.

    I thought it was real, too. Do you think they do horse heads? I’m thinking it’d make a great prank.

    “Yeah, IHOP could get into the act too – “Stack of Pancreas Breakfast Specia”

    The IHOP around the corner from me was showcased as part of a “TOP TWENTY CHAIN RESTAURANTS WITH FREQUENT VIOLATIONS. So don’t give ‘em any ideas. Seriously. I saw this right on the tele. Imagine when they zoomed in on my hood and did a close up of the restroom and kitchen. Barf o rific.

    Come to think of it, it was the very last place I ate before I entered the hospital and lost half my stomach. Oh! Why didn’t I make the connection then? I could be a millionaire!

    PS. My friend came over and saw this post up on the screen. He said, “What the hell you looking at? You are one sick bitch!”

    I said, “No – Raincoaster is the sick bitch. Go to her blog.”

    See? I gave you a glowing endorsement!

    Don’t tell me, lemme guess. You lost half your stomach when you leaned over the table at IHOP, adhered to the patina of world syrups and tried to pull loose.

    Unlike my men, I am faithful to my syrups. Butter pecan all the way.

    Breaking bread becomes metaphorical on so many levels!
