Creepy confections
Fancy a lick of an eyeball? A bite of a scabbing wound?


And here I thought Brits didn't even like Halloween! Sarah King shows off her realistic eyeball cakes at a pop-up bakery in London on October 24. The Halloween-inspired edible art show is open from Oct. 25 - 27. And if eyeballs aren't really your thing, some twisted British bakers have all sorts of ghastly treats available — from the absolutely nauseating "mango fly larvae removal" cupcakes to the disturbingly realistic "stitched" rocky road fudge (below).
