Photograph from nicisme on Flickr Food blogger Nicisme of Cherrapeño teaches you how to make melted snowmen cupcakes with cranberry cake as the base and carefully shaped fondant and icing for the malformed snowman. Or if the "snowman" part is too much trouble, just make "melted snow cupcakes."

Photograph from abbietabbie on Flickr It's hard to believe that Christine Hamilton, abbietabbie on Flickr, only makes cakes as a hobby considering how beautiful her cake designs are. Her intricately detailed Jack and Jill cupcake as part of her nursery rhymes series is particularly eye-catching.

Anna The Red's most excellent bento of Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Yoshi, Kirby, Pikachu, and Mr. Game & Watch. A typical bento box might already be the cutest way to eat lunch, but what if it contained food shaped to look like your favorite cartoon or video game characters? Blogger Anna The Red decided it was more fun to eat this way and created a slew of meals themed from Super Mario Brothers to My Neighbor Totoro to Wall-E. One of our favorite posts is her instructions on how to make Yoshi out of lettuce, potato salad, cheese, blueberries, and carrots. What tasty character would you want to see when opening your bento box? Related Cute Cuddle-Worthy Bento Boxes...

Serious eater Cybercita forwarded this photo to me last night. At first I thought we had blogged about this lil' dog in a hot dog bun, but a quick search of the SE archives shows that, nope, we haven't. And that's sort of surprising, considering the panoply of weird-animal-food photos we've got on the site. So, in the interest of being completist—and because it's been a bit of a hot dog day today, here you go....

Photograph from Ama in Ohio on Flickr Cupcake Takes the Cake rounds up awesome Thanksgiving cupcakes and cakes, most of which resemble turkeys. I like the one above in particular for combining many cupcakes into one giant cake, besides that, it's adorable. Related Baskin-Robbins Turkey Cake Thanksgiving on a Cupcake...

To Jack Donaghy's declaration that New York is "off cupcakes and onto donuts", I say: holiday ceasefire! Lay down your weapons and coo over Wild Cakes' Lilliputian turkey dinner, crafted entirely from fondant. Yes, potatoes are perhaps over-represented (mashed and boiled?) on this Thanksgiving table, but who's counting? Not I. [via Yes But No But Yes]...

I thought this edamame popping keychain was cute, but it's got nothing on Mameshiba, a Japanese character of a bean that looks like a dog; "mame" means bean and "shiba" is a dog breed. The first time I watched this compilation of Mameshiba animations I flipped out, hardly able to contain the cuteness that is a fat, little green bean dog head popping out of an edamame pod. Even natto—fermented soybeans—look cute. Your reaction might be different, especially if you can understand what the bean dogs are saying. Commenters at Cute Overload point out that each bean spurts out a random fact, or "mame-chishiki" (trivia, or bean knowledge), right before its supposed to be eaten. This video in particular...

Feel the soothing sensation of edamame beans popping out of their pods, over and over and over again, with this Japanese Mugen Puni Puni Edamame Beans Popping Key Chain from Bandai. These aren't your normal edamame beans; there are 12 different faces, ranging from "Old Man" to Panda." Unfortunately, it's currently sold out, but when Strapya World gets its next shipment, I'm going to buy five of them for hours of non-stop entertainment. Watch the edamame beans in action, after the jump....

Want a way to serve pie to your cat without getting a stomach ache? Etsy seller CatzillaCrafts offers an organic catnip pumpkin pie toy for $6.99 a slice, guaranteed to keep the kitty away from the kitchen when you're baking for the holidays. The hand-sewn pie features a realistic "flaky pie crust" and a "dollop of whipped cream." CatzkillaCrafts also offers carrot cake, cherry pie, doughnuts, eclairs, banana pancakes, and red velvet cake toys. Though I don't think your cat will really care what shape the catnip comes in, at least you can convince yourself he or she is as food-obsessed as you are....
