A few food things

Just in passing:

Hand-painted truffle bars

The tea stick (such a clever thing, I'm just in love with it)

Chocolate deities (including the Galactic Butterfly, Our Lady of Willendorf, and Hotei the Immortal)

The 100% ChocoCafe

...And for those of you who've noticed that the EU is celebrating the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Rome this weekend:

The 54 European Union Cakes for the 50th Birthday (we're going to start collecting the recipes: the list proper is here.) Two cakes from each country in the Union. First up, from Germany and England:  Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte and Eccles Cakes.
