Back in February, I created the human reproductive system made entirely of candy and I got a lot of feedback. I think this is a perfect time to show the photos again.
For your viewing pleasure, I give you:
Male
And Female
Here's a link to the original post if anyone is interested in checking it out, learning why I would do such a thing or reading about the various candies I used.





I think we need a teeny-tiny candy embryo now!

Okay, seriously? I wasn't expecting this post. And so I laughed and I laughed and I laughed and.. now I'm in a much better mood. Thanks for kicking the day off for me. Heee!

Yes yes! What Arabella said.
Also, I think I'm getting hungry for a little glans right about now...

I was actually thinking about it. But recreating that would be virtually impossible. Wouldn't it look great with a sour patch kid in the uterus?

I still love those pictures. Don't worry - pretty soon you'll be interested in purchasing lots and lots of candy and recreating the anatomies (and gobbling them up).

Okay. I'm going to go back and read the first post, but that is messed up stuff.

Seriously. Twisted.
I love it.

I loved that post the first time....and imagining a baby sour patch kid now? Bee-you-tiful

Alright, now you gotta make one with a baby in it. :)

Oh my god, you are hilarious. I never saw that.
Can't you just add one of those little Sugar Babies to the uterus now?
Posted by: Mom101 | August 23, 2006 at 04:06 PM
LMAO at Mom101's comment! Hee hee. So, will you be keeping us up to date on your pregnancy by expanding the candy uterus??

Oh. My. Gosh. HAHAHHAHAH!!! Tammie, you've done LOST it! ROFL!
Can't wait til your child is old enough to see this one....LOL!

"Instead of using a knife or scissors to shape the various organs, I just bit them off and ate them. Jeff found this disturbing."
lolololol...men are funny like that :)
Posted by: Izzy | August 23, 2006 at 05:43 PM
MMM. Candy testicles.
BUt yes! Make one with a baby!
Posted by: Amy | August 23, 2006 at 06:03 PM
Oh my god, I've been away too long!!!! I'm so happy for you. :-)
And I love the diagrams. Especially the Mentos Ovaries. I'll never eat another Mentos without thinking of the beauty of human reproduction again.

Mignon wrote "hungry for a little glans", which made me laugh so hard I choked on my Diet Coke!
This post was one of the first ones I read, and I knew I was gonna like you when I saw it. It's still wicked awesome-and yes, it needs a little candy baby!
Posted by: Elizabeth | August 23, 2006 at 11:34 PM
Mmm - these made me hungry for sugar. And I'm waiting for the candy baby too.

Here's what occurred to me at 6 am: if you can somehow manage to encase a Sour Patch Kid in a bubblegum bubble, you'll have an embryo and placenta.

Your womb... is better than chocolate...
Posted by: roo | August 24, 2006 at 10:25 PM
Wow. That's all I can say, I think. Wow.
Posted by: Kristen | August 28, 2006 at 12:50 PM
Way to get me all hot and bothered!
Posted by: Mary Tsao | August 28, 2006 at 05:32 PM
Creative...and now I'm hungry. And how often do you hear that when you've just checked out diagrams of reproductive systems?
