This Lego mold, err, Building Blocks Chocolate Candy Mold, would make for a fun activity with the kids. It might not promote healthy eating, but at least they’ll be learning something while they’re at it. (As long as they don’t try to stack the blocks–these appear to be one-sided molds!)

These Spider-Man Comic Book Cookie Cutters do more than just cut cookies into rectangles. Included in the set–along with the necessary rectangle-cutter–are stamps to be used to press designs directly into the cookies. Follow along with icing, and you got yourself a comic book cookie–no drawing skills necessary.

Hot cocoa is a relatively benign drink. Warm, chocolately and sweet, it’s a nice occasional treat, but it doesn’t provide much of a kick. No surprise then, that people like to dress it up with marshmallows. Evil marshmallows.

The physical manifestation of Gozer aside, these are no normal marshmallows. Blessed Cursed Possessed with 100-mg of caffeine each, the marshmallows supply about the same kick as a cup of coffee. Delivered in a collectible rubbery box, Stay Puft Caffeinated Gourmet Marshmallows make it easy to stay alert through a long night of ghostbusting.
