This entire village has been made out of cake! Imagine taking a bite into a shop wall or the roof of a house. The buildings are all mini versions of real ones in the village of Eyam in Derbyshire. It took around three months to make and was done to raise money for charity.
Eating your wedding bouquet is not usually something a bride would want to do. But check out this one - made of pizza! It's the idea of an Italian restaurant chain in the US. The dough, tomatoes, cheese and pepperoni are all rolled up to look like flowers... well, sort of!
A company in Switzerland has made a watch using cheese! It was sold by the world famous auction house Christies for over £73,000 pounds along with another watch, also made from cheese!
