Just when you thought the internet was fed up with game-themed food...
Here we are again at that funky time of the afternoon when you've already had lunch, but dinner is still a bit off. You've got to eat something in that 3pm time slot. Too bad we can't put the chomp on one of these delicious-looking Pac-Man cupcakes.
These lovingly crafted cakes come from the oven of hello naomi, the baker of the equally awesome Mario cupcakes that have been making the rounds lately. Check it out: the cherries even have shine marks! All I know is that if someone put that much work into how they look, they must taste great as well. Maybe not, though -- the tops are black color.
Sure, they're no Destructoid cookies (see gallery below), but these do look pretty good, right? If these don't do it for you, I'm sure you'll find something yummy here.

Those are awesome.
They're going to be win. And yummy.
Great icing skills are great.
Just like me and Photoshop.
That's the thing. It's fondant, which is a solid dough substance that tastes like frosting. It's pliable like play-doh. It's not a matter of frosting anything, it's layering a bunch of cookie cutter shapes into a bunch of recognizable patterns.
Just like Photoshop.
Making good looking stuff with fondant is a matter of how skilled you are at cutting stuff out into shapes. If you have a decent set of cookie cutting tools, you can make stuff VERY easily and you're limited to your ability to cut shapes properly.
A Dtoid sugar cookie is kinda weak, sugar cookie is just a sweetened edible plate. You have to draw on it to give it integrity. The very name is dubious, as all cookies should contain sugar.
Cupcake, on the other hand, can stand alone. The word cake alone is too strong, people get excited, it has to be prefixed so that you know that there will only be a cup-full of cake.
Ahh I gotcha, I used to work with fondant at Tim Hortons, horrible times!
You know that gaming is getting proper recognition when we have the gaming equivalent of seeing Elvis's face in a corn chip being reported on ;)
yummy cupcakes are yummy....
