If you've ever wanted to eat cake for lunch, you can disguise your indulgence with this peanut butter and jelly sandwich cake. ThinkGeek is selling a sandwich cake mold shaped like an extra-thick slice of bread.
Simply fill it with your favorite pound cake recipe, then slice the finished product in half. Then "frost" once side of sandwich cake bread with peanut butter, the other with jelly and slap them together. Leave it intact or cut your sandwich cake in half. I prefer mine with the crust cut off. Each sandwich cake mold is 8 inches by 6.5 inches by 3.75 inches and costs $24 at ThinkGeek.
