There’s a new superheroic foodery in town, and it’s got puns and some truly, amazingly gross…noodle-tongues. io9’s got a first look inside Marvel: Eat the Universe Cookbook, a cavalcade of comic book culinary concoctions from Justin Warner, who hosted a video series of the same name for Marvel’s…

The Frosting on This Dessert Is Almost Too Beautiful to Eat

The decoration on these desserts are so perfect that it almost, almost makes you not want to eat them. But then you realize that the art is just delicious frosting and that both will eventually be destroyed so you make a sacrifice and begin to stuff your mouth with as many intricately designed pieces as…

This Delicious Chocolate Sphere Melts Away to Reveal Ice Cream Inside

Desserts don’t need to be particularly fancy because even the simplest ones are delicious. But I do love it when desserts play some sort of trick or hide something from plain sight. Take this chocolate ball by Byron Talbott. When you pour warm caramel over the ball, the chocolate melts away and reveals that there’s…

Video: The brown sludge that is mass producing brownies

Brownies are absolutely delicious and probably one of my favorite things in the whole world. It’s a wonderful little treat. What’s not wonderful? When you mass produce them and have to pour buckets of ingredients to mix them up to create a oozy brown sludge that can be baked. Oh well, at least they’ll still…

Ben and Jerry’s new ice cream burrito is happiness in a waffle wrap

I’d actually consider Ben And Jerry’s BRRR-ito more of a wrap but what’s truly important is that this cross between an ice cream sandwich and your normal waffle coned ice cream exists in the first place. Think of it like a giant cannoli with ice cream. Or a Choco Taco in burrito form. And then…

Watching this video of a chef cooking massaged my senses with pleasure

Here’s an entire series of ASMR videos featuring baking and cooking and prepping and opening packages and so forth. The chef makes vegan goods, which depending on your world view may shade what you think of the cooking, but there is no doubt: it is so very pleasurable to watch the food get made. It’s…

How ridiculously giant chocolate Easter eggs are made

I don’t see anything excessive about this at all. Instead, I see a chocolate fountain I’d like to install at my house. I now crave a giant chocolate Easter egg I could spend 40 days and 40 nights eating. And I want every meal I eat to be put together by these joy givers who…

Chocolate dessert blooms like a flower right before you eat it

I like food that’s as close to being alive (or fresh, depending on your perspective) as possible. That’s partly because it tastes better but also because it’s tingly to see food move when you don’t expect it too. This blooming chocolate dessert is a mover, all right. As you pour the cream onto the dish,…

Vintage Menu Recalls A Time When Pineapple Fruitcake Was Served In Space

Also, Cheese Cracker Cubes, Bacon Squares, “Frankfurters,” Banana Pudding, and PEACH AMBROSIA. Wonder how that tasted in spaced-out form? From the archives of the San Diego Air and Space Museum.

My taste buds melted after watching this dessert get made

I don’t especially love pistachio. I don’t go crazy over tiramisu. Heck, I don’t always have the sweet tooth hankering normal humans have for dessert and yet after watching this pistachio tiramisu get made, I can’t help but feel as if my taste buds have all banded together demanding that I eat this right now.…

Watching dessert get made is totally pornographic

I don’t know if I’m hungry or turned on right now and it’s such a weird mix of feelings to experience at the same time. The close up shots of this Chocolate Framboise Mille-Feuille is borderline explicit and yet it’s just food being whisked and dolloped, whipped and dripped around. It’s artful pornography you can…

All you need is some juice, a popsicle stick, and a pile of dry ice. Because who doesn’t have that hanging around? YouTube’s “The King of Random” brings us…

Kickball Ice Cream Maker Ensures You Earned That Tasty Dessert

Making ice cream is pretty easy: Basically, all you do is churn some milk and sugar in an ice-cold container. Usually, that container is a tub-shaped thing with a crank, but it could take any shape. Even, say, a kickball. Now you’ll really make sure the kids got enough exercise before dessert. From Hammacher Schlemmer…

How come some ice cream sandwiches don’t melt in the blazing sun?

After hearing the news story about how a mother was concerned that her son’s ice cream sandwich from Wal-Mart didn’t melt after 12 hours in the sun, Dan Collins of KIKN 100.5 in Sioux Falls tested it out himself and recorded the process for video proof. Indeed, these things don’t melt. But why? How is…

Here’s how to cut a cake perfectly, according to science

The way we cut cakes is wrong. That old traditional style of slicing a wedge and leaving the rest? It ruins the cake and creates imperfect slices. How can we cut it better? How can we eat more delicious cake? Numberphile says the most scientific way to cut a cake is to slice an entire…

This giant drop of water is actually a cake

If sorcery exists in this world, I’m pretty sure Japan has already discovered it. They can’t quite turn water into wine but they can turn it into dessert. That water droplet you see above? It’s actually a rice cake dessert, or shingen mochi, that melts in your mouth as you eat it. It’s like eating…

A waffle made from ice cream means you get to eat dessert for breakfast

Dominique Ansel, the Willy Wonka of desserts and creator of the Cronut, has announced his latest imagination busting, tastebud oozing creation: The Waffogato. It takes the delicious affogato, which is basically ice cream topped with espresso, but remixes it by making the ice cream a waffle made from ice cream and mixed with Belgium waffle…

This McDonald’s burger and fries combo is actually made from cookies

Few things are better than eating a burger and fries, even if it comes from McDonald’s. This might qualify though: a full McDonald’s meal—burger, fries, coke—made completely out of cookies. Everything is somehow a cookie! Made by a Twitter user’s sister who’s presumably a master baker, it’s pretty incredible work. I mean, those fries? That…

I Did the World’s First Ice Cream Cleanse: Yes, Really

Back during the no-carb diet craze of the early 2000s, I joked that I wanted to try a diet consisting of nothing but carbs and lipids. I would call it the Fatkins Diet. Guess what? I just did exactly that. I ate ice cream, and only ice cream, for four days straight. Yes, it’s the…
