I imagine chocolate fingers would provide a solid structure, whilst sponge layers would be perfect for the walls. you could then use icing to polish off the decorations and fine touches such as fire escape signs etc. and there you have it; a building. you'd have to hope it didn't get too warm in the summer, sparking another 'financial meltdown' LOL.#ArchitecturallyUnsoundnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4034221957109736311.post-79465122151832865822012-05-09T04:45:02.515-07:002012-05-09T04:45:02.515-07:00I’m frankly relishing the prospect of sinking my t...I’m frankly relishing the prospect of sinking my teeth into the nation’s corrupted financial institutions.
