Take a bloody bite out of these gruesome Game of Thrones Cake Pops. Created by blogger Jennifer from the new blog 'Not Your Momma's Cookie,' these gory treats immortalized the shocking end of Ned Stark, a character from the wildly popular show Game of Thrones. Jennifer got the idea when she saw teaser ads for season two, which featured Ned Stark's head on a pike. Being a true and slightly twisted foodie, Jennifer instantly thought of a cake pop.
Comprised of blood-red velvet cake covered in an artfully applied candy coating, these Game of Thrones Cake Pops are sure to make your jawdrop. If you're at all squeamish about gore, you may want to indulge in these decadent numbers with your eyes firmly shut. Fans of the show will get a kick out of these violent sweets, and even if you've never seen an episode, you have to admit these beauties are pretty nifty.
Brutal, bloody and perfectly delicious, these curious cake pops are strangely irresistible.
