The holiday season is all about giving and one of the perfect focal points for this act of kindness is the stomach; enter the edible snow globe. As much a treat for the eyes as it is for taste buds, the edible snow globes look like a scene straight out of a winter storybook. Yet instead of being made out of glass and plastic, the objects inside are made out of gingerbread and coconut flakes so it can be eaten.
Conceived by Sandeea Cocina for the food blog La Receta de la Felicidad, the edible snow globe also boasts a chocolate pudding that acts as the ground, making it the perfect cap to any festive meal. If people are careful enough, they can even bring it to a party as a thought gift for hosts.
