The World’s Top 10 Best Octopus Shaped Foods

Sea food is something that I enjoy eating as much as I can. From all sorts of fish, crabs, mussels and prawns I have tried them all. But one sea creature that I have not tried yet is an Octopus, but I have not tried it, because I don’t like the thought of eating it! But there are some alternative kinds of octopus I would love to try, and here are the very best of them…

The World’s Top 10 Best Octopus Shaped Foods

Octopus-shaped fruit snack

10 – Applepus with grapetacles

What batter way to make a healthy fruit snack a little more appealing than to shape it into an octopus! With an apple for a head and grapes used for tentacles it is a joy to see. There is a full recipe and making guide to go with this in the image link, so get clicking!

Octopus-shaped cup cakes

Having an under sea themed party? Or just fancy making some fun cupcakes? Well these will cover both of those situations and then some. Not only fun to make, but also rather cool to look at as well! There is a full making guide to be read by clicking on the image link.

Octopus-shaped bento box

8 – Octomeal Bento Box

The best bit about this tasty looking octopus Bento box meal isn’t the tasty looking octopus made from an egg, or the heart-shaped strawberries, but rather the fish’N'chips fish-shaped crisps being used to great effect for the first time in a lunch box!!!

Octopus-shaped ice-cubes

7 – Ice, ice Coolamari (£7.95)

What better way to eat an octopus than with a nice cold glass of coke? And now with these Coolamari ice-cube trays that dream is a reality! But seriously it does make for a cool looking icecube, but could also be used to make some chocolate ones as well!

Octopus-shaped pie

6 – Octopie

This octopus is in fact a pie crust that is sat over a chicken pie! But lets face it, it could be sat over the top of anything and still be cool. Soup, hot-pot, stew, you name it it would look great. And with a nice making guide in the image link they are well worth a go indeed.

Octopus-shaped cake

5 – The Best Octopus cake ever?!?

Made by Karen Portaleo of Highland Bakery this is very, very impressive cake work indeed, and weighing in at over 200 pound it is definitely the worlds largest octopus shaped food. But I have not made it number 1 because it is just too much, most of us could only dream of having cake making skills this good, but that still doesn’t stop it be jaw dropping good.

Octopus-shaped pepper in hummus

4 – The Pepperpus!

With a simple half of a coloured pepper and then some spare parts cut into shape and placed in a dip (French onion dip used above) this is not only great to look at but also healthy, fun and simple to make with a nice making guide to be found in the image link.

Octopus-shaped soup bowls

3 – Octopus blood tastes of soup!?!

These are just darn right impressive! With a nice bit of soup in a tasty bread bun these are sure to make most people smile, myself included! And the best bit is that there is a nice making guide to be found by clicking on the image. But the filling of soup is up to you.

Octopus-shaped pizza

2 – Octopizza meats mega cheese!

Octopus on pizza might not be a good idea, but pizza shaped like one is a very good idea indeed! There isn’t a recipe or making guide because it is open to artistic interpretation.

Octopus-shaped boiled hot-dog sausages

1 – Under the sea, the Hot-dogs and me!

Using simple hot-dog sausages that have been cooked and then cut into shape, these fun party/BBQ snacks are a joy to see. There is no making guide or recipe in the image link, but that is because you don’t need it. You just a tin of hot-dogs and a knife to make 4 cuts.
