# Dismembered Chocolate Treats Magicians Fingers by David Bradley is the Answer to Ladyfingers By Matt Ho | Published 2011-04-26 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magicians-fingers References: [cakeheadlovesevil.wordpress](http://cakeheadlovesevil.wordpress.com/2010/11/03/magicians-fingers/) & [flickr](http://www.flickr.com/photos/ldn_chancers/5126974808/in/photostream) I've always been disturbed by the name "Ladyfingers" because I don't understand how something so delicious can have such a strangely grotesque name. Magicians Fingers by David Bradley (aka Curious Confectioner) is at least more straightforward. Magicians Fingers is pretty much the opposite of Ladyfingers, and is a lot more literal visually. Bradley modeled this treat after his own hands and molded the dessert from his model. In case you're wondering, it's [chocolate-flavored](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2024-halloween-collection) so while it may look unappealing, at least you know it'll taste good. But it's not something you want to present at a dinner party; I'd save it for [Halloween](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keebler-spookie-fudge-stripes-cookies) should this ever come into your possession. Unfortunately, Magicians Fingers was sold at EYHO by Bradley. But perhaps more delectable dismembered treats may come from him soon. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.7/10 - Popularity: 4% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Dismembered Chocolate Treats:** The trend of creating unconventional and visually shocking chocolate treats opens up opportunities for innovative dessert experiences. - **Literal Food Replicas:** The trend of creating food replicas that resemble body parts or objects presents unique opportunities for artistic and novelty food products. - **Alternative Dessert Presentation:** The trend of unconventional dessert presentation challenges traditional norms and allows for creative and memorable dining experiences. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Confectionery:** The confectionery industry can explore the production of dismembered chocolate treats and cater to consumers seeking unique and visually intriguing dessert options. - **Artisanal Food:** The artisanal food industry can leverage the trend of creating literal food replicas to offer distinctive and unconventional products that appeal to adventurous food enthusiasts. - **Event and Catering:** The event and catering industry can embrace the trend of alternative dessert presentation to provide memorable and Instagram-worthy culinary experiences for clients and guests. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Macabre Chocolate Shops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-shops.md) - [Whimsical Movie-Themed Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keebler-wicked.md) - [Seasonally Spooky Shortbread Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcghees-halloween-empire-biscuits.md) - [Half-Dipped Ice Cream Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/figo-half-dipped-chocolate-vanilla-sandwich-bars.md) - [Spooky Comedic Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dark-chocolate-vanilla-fudge-stripes.md) - [Chocolate-Filled Shortbread Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magic-middles.md) - [Movie-Themed Cookie Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wuthering-heights.md) - [Halloween-Themed Cake Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creepy-caramel-ding-dongs.md) - [Bite-Sized Halloween Biscuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/party-rings-trick-or-treat-minis.md)
