Fortune Feimster: ‘The stage was a crate, the sound system was a karaoke machine. No one enjoyed the show’

Three cartoon franchises, three food recreations, with the Bluey duck cake as the centerpiece that takes the most work and delivers the most satisfying result. The snow cone from Lilo and Stitch is the quickest build — shaved ice, packed tight in a cone, flavored syrup — and requires a snow cone machine plus the specific packing technique that TikTok has been demonstrating as the correct way to build one. The Lilo and Stitch connection comes from the beach scene that anyone who grew up with the film remembers immediately.
