This is an old one, but I don’t believe I’ve ever posted it on here before and it’s definitely a page that will go into the Infographics Bible some day.
Killer Chemistry Cupcakes of the Day: Katherine @ Foodie Friday helped her sister whip up a batch of ultra-nerdy Periodic Table Cupcakes for what was surely the best birthday party this side of Bohrium (named in honor of Niels Bohr, noted party animal).
Kartherine says:
She’s a chemistry nerd, so everything had to be exactly correct. Astute chem majors will notice the color-coded icing for solids, liquids, and gases, as well as the empty cupcake liner for as-yet-undiscovered element ununseptium. […]
Shoutouts to Ellie and Marissa for helping with the other metals, metalloids, and nonmetals, as well as to the best four elements on the table: Berkelium, Californium, Lawrencium, and Seaborgium. Oh, what? Stanfurdium? What? Oh, sorry, there isn’t one. Boom.
Nice.
