Death in Chocolate<\/strong><\/a>
\nThese chocolates are works of art. I don’t think I could ever bring myself to eat them, not only because they look like skulls and diseased jaws, but because of all the work that was put into making them beautiful.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“What had begun as a fascination with horror, alternative art, the culinary arts, taxidermy and all things odd, has grown multiple heads — and they’re all made of chocolate!<\/p>\n

I began working on small, specially cast and hand-painted chocolate bird skulls. Before I knew it, I had branched out into other animal and human skulls. Most recently, I’ve been producing antique anatomical teaching models in chocolate. Each one is hand painted and individually finished and packaged.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Where’s Cthulhu?<\/strong><\/a>
\nI wasted a lot of time as a kid on the I Spy and Where’s Waldo books. This one has Cthulhu and other Old Ones hiding out waiting for you to roll a high enough Spot Hidden to find them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h4>\n

“We are building Arkham in retro style, pixel by pixel: everybody is around the Miskanotic river and the University campus to join the Arkham Parade, while the cultists cross the river with the big balloons: the Elder Thing, Cthulhu, Dagon\u2026 they are proud of their gods and entities and everybody is coming to join the party!\u00a0The poster size is 19×27″ – 50x70cm.”<\/p>\n

BattleBards<\/strong><\/a>
\nI did an interview with the BattleBards crew<\/a> to find out more about how they allow you to integrate sound and music into your game to give it the right type of atmosphere.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Spotify meets Tabletop RPGs — Battlebards is the most expansive Tabletop Audio Library<\/b>and Tools<\/b> ever assembled to make your campaigns simply epic. And, everything is accessible straight through your browser.<\/p>\n

Tailor-made background music inspired by fantasy races, voiceover scripts written to bring life to everyday NPC interactions, and a colossal array of bone crushing, spell fire blasting sound effects… this is immersive gaming at its best for the Player and the GM. ”<\/p>\n

NerdAche Cakes<\/strong><\/a>
\nI’ve been following NerdAche Cakes on Tumblr for forever and I don’t think I’ve ever seen more gorgeous geeky sweets. She’s looking to open her own bakery and get more people working with her to release these delicacies to the masses, and I hope she can manage it!<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0 \u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

“Ever since we started Nerdache Cakes, a tumblr blog running on cake requests in 2011, we’ve been asked where our store is located. Now we are ready to provide our fellow geeks a place of their own.<\/p>\n

Nerdache Cakes Bakery + Caf\u00e9, where you can get awesome, level-up inducing treats that are decadent, fun, and a nod to your favorite icons in pop culture nerd-ery!<\/p>\n

After 3 years of building Nerdache Cakes- from piping cupcakes in a corner in my kitchen to making 6 tier cakes for geek weddings, I’ve outgrown my tiny space. This bakery would be built from years of work done just by myself, to a team of people ready to make your geekiest sweets come true!”<\/p>\n

Still active!<\/h4>\n
