Castle made of Starburst

DeviantArt's Ashleyisthebomb shows off a Starburst chewies castle whose individual bricks were melted together with a glue-less hot glue gun: "because there was no glue or anything, it was completely edible. My family and I had fun eating it until we got sick of starbursts, then i threw it out. It took FOREVER and ended up weighing about 60 pounds."

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

I’d like to think I’d never get tired of pink Starbursts

A lovely dwelling for the King, Queen, and loyal servants of the Kingdom of Diabetia.

It’s a bit of a massive waste. Decadent.

  High-fructose corn syrup is a waste from the moment it’s created. At least here it looks cool.

In what particular thought to work I know not;

But in the gross and scope of my opinion,

This bodes some strange eruption to our state.

    Quoting Hamlet, from the opening discussion among the guards on the castle battlements.
    
    So a joke, yes, but it seemed to fit making a candy castle and then eating it until you get sick.

Had I built it, all the orange blocks would be missing. So good.

  And only the yellow ones would remain – because even if it took a week to eat, those yellow ones are hard as any building material the second they come out of that rapper.

just don’t go to the beach with it because everybody knows castles made of starburst melt into the sea, eventually

  Funny, I was thinking of that song when I saw this too… that’s weird.
