Post your ideas of an edible frozen jello cube

 

[Cubed Cuber]

make a block of jello and carve it into edges and corners
next, gently submerge them into liquid nitrogen and take them out after a few minutes
then rebuild the cube

No offense, m8...but WHY?

but WHY?

just for fun

 

[Dr_Detonation]

Okay. Ill have to get some jello and try it.

I don't think jello and liquid nitrogen is your best bet. Potatoes or some other root vegetable might be a good medium, and you could carve a lot of things out of hard candy/sugar.

I've seen versions where people use cold chocolate.
You can probably find those examples pretty easily.

But root vegetables sound the best

Where are we going to get the liquid nitrogen though?

I have a couple gallons, but none I can spare. That's a good argument for a naturally firmer food, like potatoes or carrots. If you're not worried about any functionality then ice cream or even cake would work ok. It's not generally considered edible, but I've been wanting to make a solid wood cube, including a wooden mechanism.

Wasn't the first rubiks cube ever created have wooden edges and corners?

I buy at least $1,000 worth of products from Select Sires every year, so they give it to me.

So, you can just use a potato for carving?

Sure. Maybe not exceptionally durable, but you ought to be able to make it work. People carve soap all the time, and a potato would be at least as good in the short term. I expect it would degrade a little faster than soap.

 

[Cubed Cuber]

Can you try to do it?

Can you try to do it?

If I'm going to take the time to carve a cube I'll use something like red oak or ironwood, or maybe even an ebony or mahogany. I'm not interested enough in making a cube I can eat, sorry.

Are you trying to make a cube with parts or something that just looks like a cube.

I'm going to try something with cake in the next few weeks and I'll post it here.
