The snow landscape ice cake is a four-port USB hub that is ideal for office usage with its removable 1GB USB strawberries.

This horrific [Christmas cake](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holiday-wishes-collection) USB hub should set the office decoration competition off. I’m not sure what could possibly top this, and I’m also a little frightened about where this fad could go.

How random are the battered king prawns in the third image? I suppose when you get tired of using the [strawberry memory sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strawberries-cream-tarts), you can swap them for shrimp.
