Just eat it: Edible shark, spider, grasshopper, lizard, hummingbird, and pirate cupcake toppers on Etsy

Etsy seller incrEDIBLE Toppers makes, yes, edible cupcake toppers. There are lots of butterflies in various colors, and then these are these more unusual, attention-getting toppers. I can totally see the shark toppers for a Jaws viewing party. I like that these give new meaning to "grasshopper" and "hummingbird" cupcakes.

Most are $9.95 for a set of 12. From the shark topper listing:

Edible Sharks are made from rice paper (potato starch, water and vegetable oil) printed with FDA approved 100% edible ink on a printer that is used exclusively for edible items.
