Spooky Skeletal Sweets

The Gingerdead Men Cookie Cutter Re-Animates Baked Goods

— November 14, 2011 — Lifestyle
You don't need to give me any added incentive to enjoy a cookie, but the Gingerdead Men Cookie Cutter somehow manages to make something that was already ludicrously awesome even better.

A cookie cutter on one side and a skeleton imprinter on the other, the Gingerdead Men Cookie Cutter allows users to bake their scrumptious goodies with a zombie-esque theme to them. It wouldn't even matter if it wasn't Halloween, I'd demand anyone who owned this glorious unearthly tool to bake all their cookies using it.

As the image implies, you can even pour edible fillings into the skeletal imprints to elevate your cookies' deliciousness to dangerous, and dare I say lethal, extremes.

Bakers better beware. You want your fans snacking on skeletons, not becoming them.
Trend Themes
1. Zombie-themed Baked Goods - Opportunity for companies to create more intricate and unique baking tools and accessories for consumers looking to make baked goods with a spooky twist.
2. Edible Fillings - Opportunity for companies to develop more edible filling options to add to baked goods like cookies and cakes.
3. Halloween-inspired Baking - Opportunity for businesses to create products and recipes that cater to consumers looking to make Halloween-inspired baked goods.
Industry Implications
1. Baking Supplies Industry - With the rise in popularity of baking at home during COVID-19 lockdowns, there is a growing opportunity to create unique and innovative baking tools and accessories.
2. Food Industry - There is a potential market for creating and selling pre-made Halloween-inspired baked goods, especially for those who don't have the time or resources to bake from scratch.
3. Kitchen Appliance Industry - There is a growing demand for specialized kitchen appliances that provide unique and creative baking opportunities, such as the Gingerdead Men Cookie Cutter.
