Maybe my head's still spinning from eating too many Valentine's chocolates, or my vision is getting blurry from all the sugar in the technicolour anatomical heart cake that our designer Mark brought in, but I'm seeing a lot of mash-ups in the dessert world recently...

Macarons + Cake Pops = Macaron Pops!

Get the scoop on these sweeties from both Bakerella and Tartelette.
 

Another sweet mash-up...

Whoopie Pies + Macarons = Whoopie Pies disguised as Macarons!

Project Wedding posted a great recipe for these sneaky treats.

And of course the new trend...

Cupcakes + Cakes = Cupcake Cakes!

Gibbs Smith just published a new cute book on Cupcake Cakes.

I wonder what other desserts could (or should) be combined? Mmmm, the possibilities are endless...

Russell, who directed and wrote Three Kings and the existential comedy I ♥ Huckabees is writing the script and directing!  

Last month at the San Diego Comic-Con, Portman updated MTV on where things are at with the movie:

And if literary mash-ups are your thing, don't forget about Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dawn of the Dreadfuls, Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters, and the latest Quirk Classic Android Karenina!
