Tentacular, right down to the frosting

Giant Octopus Cake

The ultimate bioephemera: art you eat! This cephalopod by specialty cake artist Karen Portoleo is definitely NOT a cake wreck (although if there were a little cake(ship)wreck under those tentacles, it might not be a bad addition). Karen previously made a "gingerbread" house with an octopus icing and tiling the roof. For serious.

Thanks to Patricia for the link! (Check out Patricia's art blog, too).
