Oreo Cookie Clone: (Note how the icing is distinctly piped to ensure the curvature on the side-view. Jus a tad too OCD for me, Pastry Chef Sebastien Rouxel.)

Second coup: I was also the first person to check out Alan Bradley's newest Flavia de Luce book: Speaking From Among the Bones. I just love 11-year old Flavia and her methodical way with poisons.
