Generally speaking, it’s a good idea to avoid eating raw poultry. But this particular bird is actually a delicious orange and rum spice cake in disguise. The deceptive dessert that really does look exactly like a raw turkey was created for Christmas by London-based Sarah Hardy Cakes. No need to baste it. Just dig right in. Yum!

Holy smokes, it’s a bright pink Christmas tree monster. Christmas Kaiju! This is a “Pink” holiday Garamon Tree created by Atom Gray and Kiera Harrison (aka Miss Magpie) of Maneki Nekro studios. The sculpture stands “approximately 30” tall on a turntable base, comes pre-wired with bright pink lights, includes the ultra-ornaments as well as the gift-wrapped city buildings, and can be purchased HERE right now…” [via Spanky Stokes]

Christmas is over, but we had to share this: Julie Coulter brought her delightfully nerdy Christmas tree to life using a pair of our Giant Googly Eyes and then enhanced the scene with a creepy Horse Head Mask. We hope Santa Claus filled her Bacon and Krampus stockings full of awesome goodies.

Ben Jacobs and Adam Goodall photographed a group of people dressed in Power Rangers morphsuits ambushing the SantaCon in central London in order to “save elves from bad Santas.” “Morphsuits, the all-in-one Lycra bodysuit company, crowd-sourced 150 volunteers to disrupt a huge gathering of people dressed in Santa suits at Trafalgar Square.” [via Telegraph.co.uk]

Jeff Farinosi sent us these great (and thoroughly unsettling) photos of a visit with Horsey Claus. It looks like it was a pretty magical experience.

Santa Claus + our creepy Horse Head Mask = Awesome

Thanks Jeff! We hope Horsey Claus brings you every thing you asked for.

(If you have something you’d like to see on the Geyser of Awesome please submit it here.)

Christmas + Science = Aweome

These awesome little Christmas trees are made of colourful fungi grown in petri dishes by scientists at the J. Craig Venter Institute in Rockville, Maryland:

“In a relatively unknown place, on the 3rd floor of JCVI in Rockville, MD, is a small fungal room where art meets science (and of course where all our fungal research takes place). Fungus often gets such a bad reputation for being gross and somewhat ‘standard’. We fungal folks know better and I am hoping to educate others with the underlying beauty that fungi possess, in a funky way. I recognize that beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I felt this might convince some that fungus can be fun and not just something that grows in the back of your fridge or a nuisance that contaminates your plates. Please enjoy these funky fungal holiday art forms.”
