new age food

For my final project for Time Arts we have to come up with 5 different recipes of new aged food. New aged food is food that either critiques the way society eats now, or a recipe that puts a spin on how to eat food.

My first recipe is called edible lincoln logs. When I was a child I was always taught not to play with my food. Every kid loves doing it, so I thought of a way to make food where not only can you play with your food, but actually you are supposed to. I created a cylindrical mold which I pt melted chocolate in. Next I put it in the freezer and let it harden. Chocolate freezes fast, so only about 30 minutes later I take the chocolate out of the molds and have multiple cylindrical chocolate logs. These logs are flat on one side which makes them very easy for stacking and playing with. The logs must be kept in the freezer until served because if the aren't then they will melt fast and make a mess.
