Keepin' it real fake, part XCVIV: the edible Sony Ericsson K850i edition

by Sean Cooper posted Nov 30th 2007 @ 8:34AM

We love when people appreciate a mobile enough to immortalize it via sugary sculpture and this seems to be the case for this Sony Ericsson K850i created by Michelle Wibowo of Michellecakes for Carphone Warehouse. We've seen keepin' it real fake cake before, but this is far "sweeter" and definitely "takes the cake" -- all puns intended and double quoted for those that missed them, and yeah, we know -- for attention to detail. We're not sure about the back story here, but suffice it to say we really don't care as we're more interested in how we can get a slice of K850i and find something cool to have sculpted for us. Any ideas friends?

[Thanks, Michael]

Nokia creates mooncakes disguised as phones

by Sean Cooper posted Sep 15th 2007 @ 12:20PM

To celebrate China's Mid-Autumn festival, the Finnish ~~baking~~ behemoth handset maker has created mooncakes in four delicious flavors. While nothing like a traditional mooncake (think round, more moon-like) we're pretty sure that anybody lucky enough to be on the receiving end of this gift from Nokia will appreciate the effort. We're working on some pretty important Twinkie-as-mobile carvings over here at Engadget and as soon as they're ready, you can be dang sure we'll be eating them up.

Keepin' it real fake, part LXVIII: the edible iPhone edition

by Sean Cooper posted Aug 2nd 2007 @ 4:12AM

We've seen knit iPhones, iPhone clones, but this takes the cake, an edible iPhone. Will the iPhone madness ever end? How tasty must that luscious dark chocolate frosting be? Sadly no hint was given about the creator(s) of this bit of mobile confection, but if any of you do, please have them get in touch. We've decided Engadget Mobile needs an HTC Kaiser with working hinge and sliding action -- white cake would be fine, though, we prefer angel food cake around here. Top shelf bit of work on that phone and they even got the AT&T bit right.
