*stunned* that zombie was awsome

I'd love to see one of Re's paintings reprinted on a brownie. I'd try really hard not to eat it.

I have to say, you're a great brownie painter, to se another painter at work check out www.valsartdiary.com

oh my is that spam

Nice Job, Re! I'm surprised the paint colors came out so bright, from the looks of the kit, I was expecting washed-out pastels. I especially like the Frankenpire but wonder if he has trouble fitting in.

captain516 on 10/16/2008 9:34 am

yeah the designs came out really great, especially the zombie one. But not dusting the pan with flour? Madam, I admire your bravery.(especially since I follow all cooking instructions exactly because I'm too afraid something will go wrong)

Jigby Huggletinks on 10/16/2008 9:41 am

You are a hardcore rebel with wreckless disregard for rules. Not dusting the pan? Doing BOTH the kid and adult parts? Damn. Don't run into Re in a back alley.

Also, my favorite is either the flesh wound or Pickleman.

Kudos to the chef. Very nice work Re. I think Pac-Man gets my vote.

McFly on 10/16/2008 10:16 am

I'm surprised that you went for the "Bucktoothed Frankenpire" over "Count Pop". Still, many of these creations are awesome and definitely shows that you are creative. I would probably be lost for ideas outside of a smiley-face brownie.

matty (Guest) on 10/16/2008 10:41 am

Wow that Zombie is excellent!

Here's a baking tip for all you would be brownie bakers: I'm amazed that Re's brownies didn't come out really overcooked and dry because the 15-20 minute baking time is correct, but the toothpick will not come out clean at that point! Brownies, much like cookies, have such a high sugar content that when the brownies are done, the sugar is melted and a toothpick will not come out clean. Once the brownies are cool they will be perfect: fudgy and gooey but definately cooked and brownielike. If you bake them too much you run the risk of having dry brownies.

Loved that zombie. I'm also glad to see a kid's cooking kit that actually gave you enough ingredients to use, unlike easy bake ovens and other stuff I've experienced in the past.

Kyle Harkes (Guest) on 10/16/2008 10:57 am

Bucktoothed Frankenpire! Hahahahaha. I love it! Makes my life. A flesh wound indeed.... Good job Re.

Tetsu Deinonychus on 10/16/2008 11:06 am

Impressive painting skills, Re. They look pretty detailed and clear for being painted on brownie icing.

BTW I just want to point out that brownie instructions always forget to mention a certain other ingredient that always makes brownies better.

(Sorry, someone had to make the required "stoner-brownie" joke).

fat rodman (Guest) on 10/16/2008 11:13 am

zombie was amazing

i want the ghost one though...but you ate it already :(

SPINAL on 10/16/2008 11:36 am

Are there no crayons included? Might make an interesting additive.

stonewar on 10/16/2008 11:50 am

awesome. you should submit them to crayola.

Hey rog, no candy review this year?

Silver on 10/16/2008 3:51 pm

Nice effort, Re. I have to compliment you for creating such an amazing zombie. It is about time you start uploading articles on a more regular basis, eh? We, Graphical Designers, can learn a lot from you.

On a side-note, this article reminds me of that one from long ago about the McDonald's McFlurry Maker Machine, as those food-making toys always have easy instructions on their boxes but real thing is always more complicated. I remember that situation in which both -RoG- and Proto had to go though hell in order to create some tasty treat that hardly resembled a true McFlurry. Hope you didn't have such a hard time.

MissEvie on 10/16/2008 4:34 pm

If you can paint that good w/foodcolor and icing, I would love to see your actual paintings!

I am always trying these type of food "projects" and they may taste great but always look as if a 2 yr old did them!

And yes and something "special" always make browines better. :-)

s0n1c m0nk3y on 10/16/2008 5:15 pm

Effing great.
I would like to see more brownie artwork, that zombie was killer!

Joi (Guest) on 10/16/2008 8:07 pm

In my grocery store, they have these cool food coloring brush-pen things. They work really well! I was able to draw a pirate treasure map on the top of my friend's birthday cake with them. Pretty good detailing capability, once you get used to how they work.

And that zombie brownie is the most awesome Halloween thing I've seen this year. The flesh wound is a close second!

Silver on 10/16/2008 10:28 pm

MissEvie: You can actually look at some of Re's work at her website, which is http://www.strangepuppets.com.

I have to say that her work is awesome and it comes as no surprise for me as how she can can come with such an amazing array of edible goodies. Way to go Re!

bountyhunterseven on 10/17/2008 12:36 am

RE, why not get real fancy and use some of that spray on food coloring from the last piece! (i LOVE the Pac-Man)

mobo85 on 10/17/2008 11:46 am

Re's paintings kick ass, and so do these brownies! I love the zombie and the Pac-Man, and the ghost with a black eye would make an awesome corporate logo or symbol or something.

Madface on 10/17/2008 6:55 pm

Coolest...brownies...EVER!

Re (Guest) on 10/18/2008 2:30 am

Thanks everybody!!!

matty (Guest) - wow that info about the toothpick and cooking time thing is good to know! You are like mr. wizard. I will remember that next time so they might taste even better!

Jesse S. on 10/20/2008 12:13 am

It's seeing things like this that remind me why I keep coming back to this site. Cool stuff!

Ferrit on 10/20/2008 11:28 pm

I would like to hang that zombie brownie on my bathroom wall. It matches our color scheme and would look fantastic next to our Night Of The Living Dead Air Freshener.

Here's hoping our local Target is as well stocked with brownie kits as yours :)

Capt.Confederacy on 10/29/2008 12:40 pm

The Zombie one turned out pretty cool. Good job.
