14 December Mega-Cracker Lives!

Everything is better mega. We created the Mega-Cracker in collaboration with Xou Creative, a bunch of designers who help me with all sorts of things technical and interesting. We got a die made to cut the design, then had it printed on the outside with brown paper and the inside with a retro geometric pattern. The thing is huge, and is terribly complicated to fold. But when it is made it is truly beautiful. We then stuff it with Christmassy things: a plum pudding, ginger ninjas in santa gear, cinnamon nuts, and macaroons. I couldn’t get an explosive pop to work  like in a usual cracker so we added  some rum balls rolled in popping candy. Sometimes a metaphor is better than nothing.

We were lucky enough to get the Mega Cracker featured in the Sun Herald’s Christmas Shopping Guide this year. It feeds four and makes an interesting gift.  $40
