Ladies… You might have some awesome shoes in your collection, but the one thing that your shoe closet is probably lacking, is some cake.

Check out some sweet footwear below…

Let’s face it… a fortune cookie is the least fortunate part of any Chinese meal. Unless, of course, you get some bad Moo Goo Gai Pan.
However, the Japanese know a good food gimmick opportunity when they see one — so Felissimo stuffs their cookies with tiny cats. Although the little felines aren’t edible, they are hand-painted and very collectible.
Unfortunately, the cats do not provide Chinese lessons, or lottery numbers that don’t work.

It’s cereal monster season and, let’s face it, our current mascot trio is getting a bit long in the tooth. So, what if these outdated cereals were rebooted with a few modern-day monsters?
HalloweenCostumes.com is here to provide that visual with Cereal Killers. Imagine strolling the cereal aisle and not being able to decide between Friday The 13th-inspired ‘Machete Mateys,’ ‘Fruity Kruegers,’ or ‘Xenomorph Mallows.’
So, how about it, General Mills? Time for an update? Please keep Fruit Brute though.
Confectionary artist Sarah Hardy, who once brought us an awesome Raw Turkey Cake, is offering these realistic Chocolate Dinosaur Teeth. Currently, an edible version of a Megalodon Tooth (72% dark chocolate) and a T-Rex Tooth (single origin, milk chocolate) are available.
Dig some up today… Get it? Dig? Never mind… check these out.
Step away from the Pumpkin Spice Latte… there’s a new fleeting drink offering from Starbucks. The Frappula, a vampire-inspired beverage, is a white chocolate frapp with mocha sauce, whipped cream, and raspberry sauce as the blood part.
Hurry though… The Frappula is only around until Nov. 1. Coincidentally, this also marks the official end of our national pumpkin spice nightmare.
