Will gluing it fix it, or will it end up looking crummy? (Sorry for the pun)

>>7620311
>>7620309
just email/message her on FB and ask. Yes I am pretty sure it's a real biscuit thing. Innocent World has done the same thing in the past, though obviously better where they don't crack.

So, here's the crack.

For one thing, for all my searching I can't find a mold for a Marie biscuit.

I can find the biscuits themselves for as low as 2.99.


Well, this is a just a tiny disturbing.

>>7620309
>I began to wonder if I paid 10$ for an acrylic glazed cookie with a bow glued to it
I have some bad news for you.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_biscuit

>>7620317
I saw that.
This is pretty silly. I have to buy some and replace my broken cookie.

This is terribly silly.

>>7620315
Oh man, you totally got $10 for a glazed biscuit.

I've seen food items like sprinkles set in resin, but who thought this was a good idea?

>>7620322
I don't even think this is even glazed in resin. It stood no chance.

Maybe because it's 5 am and I still haven't gone to sleep yet, but this thread is funny as hell.

Thanks OP, sorry about your cookie.

>>7620327
The fact that it went stale and soft horrifies me.

I'm laughing so hard anon, but to be fair it's absolutely adorable. Good luck fixing it.

>>7620327
Yeah, it looks like maybe they coated in a few layers of a spray dealer and called it a day. Welp, that $10probably paid for a few boxes of those biscuits.

>>7620328
That's why I had to share this.

Who would have thought that the accessory that looked like a tasty cookie... was actually a tasty cookie?

>>7620327
these other ones on her shop look glazed a lot better

...i really want some biscuits now

Here OP, for when you need you get you cookies >http://www.ehow.com/how_5727709_preserve-bread-decoration.html
It's a cute idea, but perhaps it's better for personal use as opposed to selling.

>>7620314
>Innocent World has done the same thing in the past
Is this really normal and acceptable? I find it pretty gross and unhealthy.

>>7620315
Taste it.

>>7620339
Same, not to mention unprofessional
wtf

>>7620339
Even tutorials on how to preserve things say it only lasts a few months.

I feel like the seller should at least give people some kind of heads up.

>>7620342

>>7620342
For science.

I licked the edge. Tastes sweet?

If I die bury me in Stained Glass Seraphim

>>7620339
yeah it's not like a normal thing, but at least you can tell IW sealed theirs really well

>>7620339
>>7620346

A shop near me was selling actual sweets encased in acrylic resin a few years ago. As I understood it, because the food is entirely encased in the resin (you could see a thick layer covering it, nothing like OP's where there's just a glaze), there's no air for bacterial growth, and therefore to way for the food to spoil.

I didn't buy any though (they weren't all that cute), so I can't tell you if the food not spoiling really holds up.

Well thank you OP, I was going to get one but now I won't!

>>7620354
Looks like its encased in resin. That's acceptable, but just painting it with glaze? That's poor.

>>7620358
Hey, you could probably make your own and eat the extra biscuits ;D

>>7620315
Well...that's the way the cookie crumbles.

>>7620366
those pancake tights are killin' me

>>7620371
Me too anon, does anyone actually know where they are from? The girl who has these just says they are "offbrand" i'm pretty sure but i think it's bullshit.

>>7620353
Hahaha I'm pissing myself. It actually was a biscuit.

>>7620373

http://unus.ocnk.net/product/792

sold out.

>>7620373
Google led me here http://unus.ocnk.net/product-group/24
They're sold out though.

>>7620373
to be fair though, they're not the most flattering

This is my favourite thread on /cgl/ right now.

>>7620375
Hahah fuck i read the text as "anus" and i was like what.
Thanks anon, at least i know where they are from now, looks like they have some other pretty cute tights too!

>>7620354
IW did this shit properly but the biscuit is fug.

>>7620332
>Welp, that $10probably paid for a few boxes of those biscuits.
I laughed so hard.

>>7620366

>>7620354
that cookie is so unkawaii.

I'm so sorry op but that's hilarious, thank you for posting.

This is definitely the best topic on /cgl/ right now. Sorry for the loss of your kawaii cookie, anon.

>mfw I want one just to wear and show off

this cookie shit is weak age play crap

where's my resin encrusted baby back ribs for my gothic coord?!

>"A large, delicious honey biscuit perfectly paired with gingham bow and dangling utensil charms! "

Yeah a real honey biscuit.

>>7620460
Imagine this with real meat and dripping bright red BBQ sauce. Truly the most hardcore of gothic coords.

Oh my god, i'm dying over here.
That's a real cookie. She didn't even put it in resin. I don't know weather to laugh more or go inspect all my cookie themed jewelry.
Sorry that happened OP, but thanks for posting it. Maybe you can email her and she can send you another cookie hahaha.

>>7620477
It'd ruin my moite!

>>7620309
Well Lauren is a cheap ass

>>7620487
True, but you'd be the envy of everyone before it does.

>>7620414
Can you imagine, the girl who made them now has a stock pile of Marie biscuits.

>>7620477
Quick, somebody put resin on a buttermilk biscuit and glue it to a hairband!

>>7620494
I need to see art of this where the lolita is being swarmed by pigeons and she's trying to fight them off with her parasol while shouting about her burando.

>>7620496
"Stay away from my co-ord and my cornbread, you stupid slut birds!"

>>7620499
Oh god.

Now I'm totally imagining a loli coording these with honey cake.

>>7620504

Has anyone confronted her about it?

>>7620366
>>7620377
At first I saw them as being printed all around

making you look like your legs are made entirely out of stacked pancakes

Dunno if that's better or worse, but still shame about the best part being at crotch level and therefore always obscured. It's like nobody ever considers that when designing printed thights and it annoys me endlessly.

perfect post

>>7620529
Omg anon this is great

>>7620529
Personally I would have bolded 'real cookie' instead of 'was' in the first frame. But that's just me and it's still amazing no matter what.

So does this mean this is real chocolate LOL

>>7620545
Anon pls don't scare me like that

>>7620529
Brilliant, anon!

>>7620510
lol how would that go down exactly?

>the jig is up! Hand over the biscuits and no one gets hurt!

>>7620309
I just came here to browse but I didn't expect to find this.

Fucking grade A post

At least you know how to make a quick buck with a package of Oreo's

>>7620315
I feel like some chemistry nerds here should be able to give some helpful advice. Maybe google to see if there's a way you can test for sugar?

>>7620610
OP could just apply some water on a q-tip along the crack and see what happens. If it's clay or resin it wouldn't do much but if it's actual food, it would get soggy and mushy. Wouldn't it?

>>7620460
>greasy white trash food
>for gothic
anon pls

I'm still waiting for the day someone pours clear dark red resin in a wine glass and sticks it on their head, honestly.

>>7620618
Don't give them ideas.

>>7620315
>>7620610
I've studied a lot of cookies in my day, tracked their behavior and customs, and by jove, I can say with 96% accuracy that this is indeed an authentic, edible Maria cookie.

>>7620618
Oh come on it was a joke. I wouldn't seriously sling a rack of bloody ribs on a necklace for my MMM!

It's obviously a more lacquered rack of lamb elegance, duh

This is the best post.

I'm sorry for the loss of your cookie anon. That is is concerning but I too have heard about resin coated food items being sold as craft items. It is true that if sealed correctly with resin, there shouldn't be any moisture or air or really much environment for growth. Especially if it is an already dry item like those Marie biscuits.

I praise you for tasting it in the name of science.

>>7620628
Kobe steak laminated eyepatch even

>>7620618

Necklaces are for casuals, though. Go harness or go home.

>>7620309

This is the best post ever

>>7620655
... Now I imagine some chest strap contraption with wine glasses upside down over the tits

>>7620513
If your outfit involves like... booty shorts or maybe it's for a breakfast themed burlesque and you wear ruffled underwear on top that might be pretty cute

>>7620610
Chemistry nerd here: starch...blahblahblah...iodine...blahblahblah
Tl;dr:
Take some iodine, take a bit of the cookie, use really half a drop the most, spit in the probe/at ghe bit of cookie. If it loses iodine color, congrats, it's a real cookie.

>>7620692
someone tell creepyyeha

>>7620618
Ribs aren't greasy and they aren't white trash food. They're dry and tough and they're southern black people food. Are you stupid?

Yes, it's a glazed cookie, they do this all the time for Christmas ornaments. OP you just got a shitty one. Usually it's fine and lasts pretty much forever.

Threads like this are why I go on cgl.

>>7620800
How...how do you treat it? Besides resin, of course. I kind of want to try this.

Omg I'm fucking saving this thread.

Looks like it's hit tumblr. Feel bad for artist anon since their art is going uncredited.

>>7620950
If she gives me her tumblr or DA I can add it :3

Omfg op I just got here but lmfao cookie

>>7620968
You're the best. I know anything you post here is basically anonymous but it's always nice to be able to put a name to an artwork, especially when they worked so hard on it.

>>7620545
Holy shit, motif overkill. The rillakuma and the star don't go at all too.

Holy crap I have this exact brooch... I suppose I'll just have to... be extra careful with it...?

>>7621036
Or wear it whenever you go to a meet when there might not be food.
Just. In case.

Also, you guys do all know that some fake cookies can be made out of non-edible dough that eventually goes soggy too?
Just so that we don't start claiming all fake biscuits are real biscuits.
(I can't believe that was just a real sentence.)

>>7621062
>just in case

this thread has me in stitches i love you ladies.

>>7620309

Awwwww helllll naaaaah I'd get a refund. Passing off real cookies as those fake ones made of clay, that shit ain't cute.

>>7621110
Did she claim they were made of clay?

>>7621124
she doesn't claim it's made of clay. I should have taken her word for it when she said it was a hney biscuit I guess.

'A large, delicious honey biscuit perfectly paired with gingham bow and dangling utensil charms! This brooch doubles as a clip and can be pinned to clothing or a bag.'

>>7621140
Does she have any sort of guarantee on her items though? Cause I honestly wouldn't buy something if I knew it wasn't going to last a year.

>>7621140
"or u can eat it wtv"

>>7621166
Her customer service has been excellent the couple of times I've ordered from her and the items I have, rosettes and crown pins, are well made and sturdy. I'm sure the seller would try to help the OP and fix the problem.

Edible Lolita Accessories: Wear first, Snack later.

I should start wearing Lu Biscuits in my hair. Those are good for classic lolita, right? And then, bam, dessert.

>>7621445
No one in the thread is screaming scammer or anything. We're all just laughing that it's a real cookie.

If someone knows how to do it the proper way then please do tell how to.
It's a cheap way to create cute accessories.

>>7621616
It just has to be coated and well sealed in a clear acrylic resin.

The OPs pictures looks like the seller just bought some of that sculpy glaze that seals clay and brushed it on thinking it would have the same effect.

>>7621616
1. Get Mold making putty
2. Make mold of a cookie
3. Insert sculpey or resin into mold
4. ???
5. Profit

Oh god she messaged me D:

I hope she's not upset or anything, this just seemed too silly not to share.

>>7621697

Keep us informed, anon. This thread is precious.

>>7621697
She posted on Dearie that she wants to collect as many unsatisfied brooches as she can and replace them.

>>7621718
she basically apologized, said she had no problems with the brooch she wears herself and said she was going to try another kind of glaze and offered me a replacement brooch.

Hello!

Not at all upset, but I do want to direct you to the FaceBook page where I hope to make it up to you (and in fact, anyone else who has purchased a Honey Biscuit brooch in the past): fb.com/dearielove

To the OP - Per the messages I sent you through your Tumblr, please disregard having to send your original brooch back -- I see your photos already. If you prefer, I can send you a new one when I have used a better sealing medium and am settled post-relocation.

Please take a look at the FB page when you get the chance and I apologize for the inconvenience. Thanks!

Just saw her post on the Dearie facebook page, she's being so chill and mature about this. I hope other shop owners (coughcoughkyandicough) are taking note, this is how you handle a product malfunction and an unsatisfied customer.

>>7621734
hey, I have one thing I think you need to add...

You still don't say anywhere in both the notice you put up, or on the brooch listings on your site that they are REAL biscuits/cookies. You just say it's a 'delicious honey biscuit' but no disclaimer whatsoever that it's actually a real food item sealed with a glaze. You really need to stop being vague about that and blatantly spell that out for people. In your newest FB post you still are really vague and don't point out in any way that it's an actual food item.

>>7621743
Right? People will still buy actual food items that are properly sealed. You see those sprinkle rings and shit get sold all the time.

>>7621734

I think you should put a warning it contains real food in order to avoid future problems. In my country it's not allowed import food products, for example.

>>7621794
Is it still considered food if it is in resin? I mean it's not like its edible anymore after that point.

Hello,

Thanks for bringing the import/shipping regulation and potential health issues to my attention as well.

In future iterations of the accessory, I will definitely make it clear on the product page that the accessory has been made of a food product. As I mentioned, I will be using another glazing medium for replacement brooches so that its snack-related origins hopefully aren't an issue for anyone at that time. :)

Thanks!

>>7621806
well what about if it breaks apart and the inside is still technically perishable?

I'm >>7621743 and I'm coming more from a place where people should be upfront about 'material content' of their handmade items, even if it's literally a real biscuit. Especially considering weird food allergies and what not... who knows? rather cover your ass I think than be vague!

>>7621813
>its snack-related origins hopefully aren't an issue for anyone at that time. :)
Ok, as long as you are very up front that it's a real biscuit, that's fine. I still don't see why you can't edit your FB post with that information, it's so weird and almost like you're trying to avoid mentioning it directly to people.

I mean, there were two other anons in this thread who owned your brooch who didn't know it was a biscuit, if someone reads 'biscuit brooch' they are going to assume it's not a real biscuit, but a cast of something else... not sure why you're avoiding mentioning it.

>>7621823
Probably because people don't want to buy glazed biscuits for $10. If it was sealed in resin, yeah, but she's mentioning using a different type of glaze. Obviously she read the thread and knows it's the only way to ensure it lasts, but for some reason is still insisting on selling a sub-par product.

>>7621813
...Okay, this is really weird, but can I like request a specific cookie? Like can I send you the cookie and you make a brooch out of it? I'm 100% serious.

>>7621951
holy shit i'm dying

>>7621958
This is a legit question, anon. There's a cookie place by me that sells the prettiest cookies ever, and I would so wear them. Dammit, I WILL wear them.

>>7621951
Suddenly I just got the most painful urge to start selling resin-coated Oreos, Chips Ahoy, and Nutter Butters.

Also resin-dipped Saltine crackers for the salty-ass classic lolitas who wanna ride the bandwagon without compromising their more ~mature~ style.

...and it's only a matter of time before someone dips an actual donut in resin and tries to sell it.

>>7621970
The tutes I've read online say it's best to do it with really dry breads/pastries. The creaminess of Oreos and othe filled cookies will not cute well. The saltines would probably work well.

>>7620377
>lumpy legs with unidentifiable golden liquid running down the thighs.

NOPE.jpg

>>7621970
There's so much potential.. pocky for the weebs, pretzels, bread for bread-chans
Real melted chocolate for melty chocolate

>>7621986
I'm getting scared that people are going to take this literally and it's going to become a thing. Before you know it Baby is going to start selling strawberries encased in resin and Jap Lolitas will bitch that IW did it first with the cookie.

>>7622005
Too late.
This is the future.

>>7620815
Honestly and without sarcasm, Google it. There's so many goddamn ways to do this, from making fake cookies with saltdough and spices to dipping a whole real edible cookie in resin and completely coating it. I know there was a quick tutorial on resin-coating candies for a bracelet on Epbot but you'd likely find more cookie/pastry based ones by searching "real cookie ornament" or "preserved cookie ornament"

>>7621978
You could take apart the Oreos or Nutter Butters, seal the cookie part, and then replace the centers with whipple or similar.

I don't get why anyone is freaking out.

When I was in the second grade, we did art projects around the holidays to take home as trinkets for family. Around Christmas it was usually ornaments.
That year we had made fake 'gingerbread' cookies. I made mine in the shape of a star, and left a hole to thread ribbon through. You couldn't eat the 'dough' we had made--it was inedible and disgusting. But years later (in fact I think that ornament may be around somewhere) it was still in perfect shape without any mold. Last I saw it, I could still smell the gingery nutmeg.

I don't see how a fake cookie, or even a real cookie, in resin is a huge issue. Those resin jewelry have always been prone to breakage though and it doesn't surprise me that one of those would.

>>7622038
I don't think anyone is ACTUALLY freaking out, but it's just a hilarious situation. We're so used to ye olde polymer clay edibles that for something to actually be a cookie is pretty hilarious.

Also this >>7620353 is great.

>>7622038
I think it's the fact that they paid so much for an item without being made aware of what it was made out of. (Materials which didn't justify the price.)

>>7621737
The way she's handling this issue makes me want to buy one once she corrects the glazing. I knew they were actual cookies to begin with but never bought one because it's humid where I live.

>>7622046
>so much
10 fucking dollars anon. Come on.

>>7622005
>>7622012

Already done. Seems like the fruit needs to be dried first because water hinders resin curing.

http://thatslikewhoa.com/cool-jewelry-made-from-real-preserved-fruit/

Is burgerloli still a thing? Now with real veggies.

>>7622067
10 dollars for a biscuit that cost like 10c inidivudally and took no real effort to carve/mold/cast whatever.

>>7622080
$10 is not a lot of money. If it is, you need to reconsider your ability to participate in the fashion.

>>7622085
it's ten dollars for a damn cookie coated in the equivalent of clear nail polish

>>7622069
Have you anons seen that 10 year old mcdonalds burger thing that hasn't aged or molded? Everything is fitting perfectly into place now.

>>7622085
I think you're missing the point. The item itself is not worth ten dollars at all. One can put a price on both labor and items, and this does not merit ten dollars. That is the primary contention.

>>7622096
See the bright side anon. You can do it yourself.

>>7622098
People sell awful perler bead shit that takes zero effort for more. $10 is an okay price for this. $10 isn't much.

>>7622096
>>7622098
If it was coated properly, $10 is fairly cheap. There are other materials apart of it other than just the cookie. Since you've seen it all broken up you're talking shit but if it was sealed and coated properly you wouldn't think twice.

>>7622109
>If it was coated properly
That's the fucking problem you twat, this person >>7622046 is getting shit on for saying that the brooch cost "so much", when the materials clearly "didn't justify the price". Yeah, if the thing actually held up nobody would bat an eye but that's not what we're fucking talking about, now is it?
If it was coated properly, the cost of materials would probably be a bit higher but I'd be willing to bet Dearie still wouldn't be out that much and that the $10 would still be sustainable for her (which would also be more reasonable for the customer with a higher quality item).
Get out of my face if you're not even going to pay attention to the conversation.

>>7622097
I haven't been there in years and this still made me kinda squeamy.

>>7622108
That fad is dying out though and some cons are even banning perler bead products from artist alleys. At least when people buy perler shit they (should) know they're buying a low-quality and delicate item, I don't think OP was anticipating her brooch actually decomposing.

>>7622097
have you ever seen the separate parts of a burger rot if left out? Bread gets stale and dried when left in open air, so does cheese, and so does meat. Especially with all the salt added (its supposed to be a preservative after all..)

Nothing molds unless it's kept in a wrapper or in a place where moisture can form. This is why your old bagged lunches or your unsealed food molds.

I mean try it. Get a slice of cheese and throw it on the counter and leave it. It's going to dry out, not mold up.

>>7622142
No I was saying it wouldn't fall apart or go bad and we could make this accessory happen for burger lolita. It was a joke.

OP bought this item on sale at that, I looked up the shop and they usually go for $14.

I agree with others in this thread that the seller should be a lot more clear on what these are made out of, especially now when she's addressing this issue in such deliberately vague terms.

>>7622127
I don't know, in most European countries McDonalds burgers get moldy. I know because I often forget to put them in the fridge and forget they exist.

>>7622169
Your food is regulated, though. In America, plastic is acceptable.

>>7622157
Throw a Krystal burger into resin and turn it into a necklace or stick it on a headband.

I saw a tumblr that was full of women that are technically considered obese by their BMI, and their sizes were not at all what you would think. They looked like girls that just crossed the line into the technical obese category.
There were girls with bodies like these.

>is she going to eat them

>>7622381
Waste not want not. As a frugal, anorexic lolita, those biscuits could feed me for a whole week, leaving me enough money to buy precious burando.

>>7622381

It's so that girls don't take this opportunity to claim theirs was broken in order to get a freebie. Kind of standard that you can't keep the defective goods if you're getting a refund or a replacement for it (on that note, why would her customers want to keep the unsatisfactory ones?)

>>7621951
Anon you're killing me

>>7622140
Different anon here.
You're backtracking, we've said $10 is a totally acceptable amount in this fashion for something that at least looks nice. People can charge what they want for what they make.

You can't winge about $10 being super expensive but then turn around and say 'Oh but perler stuff is different because people know it's a risk of low quality'.
Everything you buy online is a risk, $10 is alright for a risk.

>>7622164
I don't think it's really that required.
Most people that make deco charms don't state what sort of clay was used.
Why are you do focused on 'justice' for someone that hasn't done anything wrong, vague phrasing is normal in commerce and it's just a funny situation and she's replacing the things. Are you from tumblr?

Now I'm also looking forward to that resin burger being made

>>7621951
You know, it's not that hard to put resin on something like a cookie. Heck it would even be fun to do it yourself, you can throw whatever you want on it then afterwards.

>>7622410
why are we sticking on 10 bucks? 10 bucks was the discount price OP got with a coupon. The actual brooch is 14 usd plus shipping

>>7622416
>Why are you do focused on 'justice' for someone that hasn't done anything wrong,
diff anon, but I would have liked to know what the thing was made of because you know.. it broke because it was made out of a real cookie... maybe I would have kept it in another area, maybe she could put up different care instructions specifically because it was a cookie and not clay? I think it's a valid request that she put that it's a real cookie... I think every etsy/handmade/whatever thing I've bought from a shop has listed what the thing is made from.

>>7622451
>>7622416
and possible allergen information as well. I don't get why you think that something a little out of the ordinary shouldn't be listed. In fact, I think it could be spun around as a selling point for the item, not a fact that needs to be hidden away. Because it's slightly uncommon thing to use, the fact she doesn't point it out makes it seem like she's deliberately trying to hide it. just my opinion of course. I don't see why pointing any of that information out logically would make you point at someone and ask them if they're from tumblr lol. Tumblr would probably actually be more on your side/the crafter's side in retrospect.

>>7622447
$14 is still not a lot of money doofus.

>>7622358
Blog may be empty but I'm still following you. Hope you do more art soon!

>>7622447
You sound like you're just trying to stir up shit. Please stop. The seller apologised and is doing what she can to make it up to OP and other buyers.

>>7622462
I never said it was. I just am pointing out everyone is talking about 10 bucks but that was the discounted price...

>>7622468
What in my statement sounds like stirring shit up? I'm correcting the price that anons seem to be stuck on, that is all. If the real price is shit stirring to you then I'm not sure what to tell you.

>>7620739
>implying the way ribs are prepared doesn't change depending on the region

>>7622539
Probably some fatty-chan upset that someone insulted their favorite snack.

>>7622038
The dough you're talking about is called salt dough and is specifically for making craft projects. It's not the same as just using biscuit dough or whatever because the salt acts as a preservative and deters mould.

so kawaii!

>>7622392
It's not so much wanting to keep it imo as it's awfully inconvenient to make your customers waste their time/money going to the post office to mail back a crumbled cookie.

>>7622456

This. I'm actually allergic to wheat, and I've had skin reactions to body products that used wheat protein. It's not quite anaphylactic shock, but I will break out into hives and itching.

There are also the anons that pointed out that some countries have strict policies about importing food items. If it's not properly preserved, like in this case, then it could be a problem. It's better to just be up front.

>>7620739
>White people food
Man, white people steal everything >:u

Oh man I am so going to the grocery store and buying the cutest biscuits I can find to dip in resin and make jewelry with.

That's it, I'm done

>>7623370
Right???

>>7622098
It probably took her an hour to coat it in resin and add the details. Are you seriously saying that $10/hr is a ripoff? Who gives a fuck if the coating chemical turned out to be shit; you still have to pay for labor. She could've spent an hour coating a cookie in frosting and a $10 price tag would be warranted.

>>7623384
If I can find where the tiny silverwear charms come from I will be golden.

>>7623400
I bought some off ebay for a good price a while back

>>7623391
That's like saying a shit artist charging $70+ is okay because even though they suck, they spent over 7 hours painting. Or that beginners are allowed to charge more for whatever they're making because time and money per hour, but as they get better, are they supposed to charge less because something that took them 2 hours before now only takes 30 minutes?

This entire thread is the best thing I've seen on /cgl/ in weeks.

>>7623391

It is a ripoff if it breaks, as hers did. The problem here isn't the price it's that the product wasn't properly made. No one would bat an eye at spending 14 dollars on something that would last. But 14 dollars on a cookie brooch that gets soggy and breaks barely a year later? That would just suck.

I could buy a box of cookies and some glaze and make my own every few months for less than that. Calm down dude. There shouldn't be a problem with the price as long as she solves the cookie malfunction.

>>7623427

70$ for shitty art is different than $10-$15 for a cute accessory. Also, people spend 70$ for crap brand jewelry made of plastic. When something you pay under 20$ for breaks it's easier to shrug off.

apart from the durability issue the design is really charming and it's hand made and about the same price as something from Claires.

The cost of materials is probably about $3-$5 depending on what you pay buying ribbon, charms, pin/clip backings, and lace in bulk. With the addition of assemblage time it's a really reasonable price.

>>7623400
Doll store maybe?

>>7623502
I'm not saying the price is unreasonable, if it were quality, I'd be willing to pay up to $20 for a cute, durable biscuit. What I'm saying is that charging per hour isn't always a good reason for pricing when the product isn't quality.
And when you factor in material cost, because it's in bulk, it's really only a couple of cents per product. She's also probably not working on one at a time and likely does it assembly line style of getting one thing done, moving on the next, and so one and probably makes several in that hour's time.

>>7622097
Yeah, a scientist duplicated the experiment; basically the whole thing dried out before it can mold. It would probably kill you if you ate it, but it's not moldy because there is no moisture for the mold to grow.

>>7623427
Artists can charge whatever they want if there's a customer willing to pay it. There's plenty of people in this thread willing to pay $14 for a cute biscuit. It's not like the seller can go back in time and mark the price down months in the past because she somehow knew one of her products would break because of a defect. Everyone bitching about the price needs to take a chill pill.

>>7622038
I'd be pretty annoyed to get a real cookie because it'd give me an allergic reaction.

>>7624304
If it's coated in resin you wouldn't have a reaction.

>>7623619
I think the point was that the buyer would have liked to know it was a real biscuit coated only in a thin layer of something and likely to break/soften/mold within a year or two.

>>7624323
The store doesn't use resin if you had bothered to read the thread. They uses a glaze which then cracked open which would expose the actual inside of the cookie.

I don't get why people are arguing against the seller taking five seconds to type 'this is made from a real cookie!'

Just found this on Taobao and thought it was extremely relevant.

>>7625527
I concur, this is extremely relevant

so we're flooding secrets with food this week?

>>7624331
Because >>7624304 said they would be annoyed if they got a real cookie. You can STILL get a real cookie if it were properly coated and sealed in resin. It would NOT give you a reaction, but it would still be real food items.

The whole argument is that if it were properly sealed that shipping and allergies would not even come into play. This is beyond the OPs post. Just general speaking.

>>7625628
>The whole argument is that if it were properly sealed that shipping and allergies would not even come into play
I don't think you can honestly say that with 100% conviction. So why even take the risk and just, like I said, take 5 seconds and say 'this is made from a real food item!' on the listing. Solved, everyone is happy.

>>7623348
>>7622456
Yeah allergy info is kind of important. My friend is allergic to anything bee related and has had very bad reactions to things that were polished with beeswax products, which most people don't even think about. And when I say react, I mean like swollen airways, hospital trip, etc.

>>7623400
>silverwear
you might wanna try searching for silverware instead, it might help.

>>7625628
Hello, >>7624304 here. tbh I wouldn't buy it if I knew it was a real cookie because there could be issues with the seal plus hands on the outside could have left particles that would affect me. Like >>7625688 says, if it was written in listings that would be great because then I'd know what to avoid. This thread has shown me to ask before buying, which is fine but it would be nice and convenient if sellers could just put in a line about it being real food.

>>7625527
I like that dumpling necklace.

Burger anon better deliver

>inb4 crazy cat lady gets a new bag for her Cat Tea Party JSK

>>7633924
Are you suggesting someone is going to coat a cat in resin.

>>7633928
This thread keeps getting better

>>7620315
Wow, what a scam...

Did >>7622224 ever come back?

I seriously want to see the results

>>7633924
What a fantastic idea. I work at a pet shelter and this sounds like an awesome way to make sure the animals we put down go to loving homes, even if they're dead.

Not really cgl related, but Orange Caramel's whole attire are just food outfits.

>>7634127
Clearly this is a sign. Food is the new thing in fashion.

Hold your horses it's been humid lately and I have a lot to work on this week.
French fries are for a madonna crown.

>>7639901

>>7639901
God bless you

>>7637946
Fuck this pitch.

>>7639901

Oh my god anon I love you

>>7639901
You are a god amongst men

>>7639985

>>7639901
why is there a single crinkle fry in the sea of smooth-ones

>>7640723
It's fashion.

>>7640723
That sir, is an artistic representation of the tumblr breed of lolita. Surrounded by others who adhere to constricting rules, the crinkle fry shows it's own unique display of what it is like to be a lolita. #unique #sweet crinkle fry #brandwhorebitches

But LADIES PLEASE. You're sooo behind on the trend.
You forget our kawaii ambassador who has been doing this shit since 2010.
Step it up.

>>7641598
I was trying to forget about this mess.
Has it really been four years? Damn.

>>7641598
Didn't she dress in Lolita too?

>>7640723
I don't know what's up with the crinkle fry. Does burger king serve crinkle cuts? I'm actually vegetarian and (until recently) haven't been there in probably 4 years.
Also it's so humid I'm going to buy one of those dehumidifier boxes and dump the silica gel beads into a container and seal the burger inside. I feel like everything has hit a level dryness that still isn't dry enough to handle getting sealed.

>>7642657
Yes they do, I got a stray in my bag the other day and it was pretty good. I fucking love french fries though.
I'm in love with your dedication burger anon, bless your soul

>>7620377

The tight creates an impression that you have an orange liquid dripping from your vagina ew

>>7620377
It looks like someone cut chunks into this girls legs, and found out shes orange on the inside.

Just look closely. I think that's what >>7621980 was on about.

>>7620377

I didn't see the first image so when I saw this I thought they were bacon... Either way they look terrible

>>7643104

Anon, I don't think that's what they were on about.
