Food Porn: City of biscuits

In February, a team of artists spent six days creating rendition of a city out of an unusual building material: biscuits. The biscuit city was hardly cookie-cutter, though. It used approximately 72,000 biscuits of different kinds and had little repetition. Buildings included a city hall, sports stadium and suspension bridges, as well as interpretations of famous buildings and architecture from around the world, like a traditional Asian village and New York's Empire State Building. At nearly 40-feet (12-meters) in length, it was surely one of the largest displays of its kind. The biscuit city was on display at the Selfridges in Oxford Street in London where, after the display period, it was eaten by hungry patrons on February 22nd, washed down with gallons of free tea. For more photos of the city, a nice cup of tea and a sit down checked out the display in person.
