8-Bit Link Is A Real Treat

We've see a lot of gaming cakes, but here are some gaming cupcakes!

Little Gia is a new Zelda fan, apparently having reached a gaming epiphany with Twilight Princess. She wanted a Link cake fro her birthday, so instead of going the traditional route, mom, dad, grandma and her "crazy gaming uncles" came up with this 8-bit Link made from 143 delicious cupcakes.

At 36" by 44", this might be the biggest game related dessert treat we've seen. I have to say it was a pretty clever idea to use the cupcakes in place of the pixels. Maybe this will spawn a whole new generation of gamer cakes. Anyone want to try for a Samus?
