Archive guides

Compare real builds through their contributors’ original accounts and photographs.

Chocolate bars remembered and remade

Cabana, Terry’s Pyramint, Coconut Boost and Trio inspired four very different giant builds. These original accounts record what their makers remembered, how they approached the filling and mould, and what actually happened.

Giant biscuits: compare the builds

A chocolate digestive, an Empire biscuit, a Hobnob, a Jammie Dodger and a Wagon Wheel offer different ways into the biscuit archive. Compare the baking, assembly and finishing in their makers’ own accounts.

Giant cakes: shape, structure and finishing

Compare a French Fancy, a Battenberg, a caterpillar cake and two different Giant Jaffa Cakes. Each contributor’s account preserves a distinct approach, with its own photographs and choices.

Twenty years of snacks at an absurd scale

Pimp That Snack began in 2006. Twenty years later, its community’s giant creations remain an archive of experiments: chocolate shells, improvised moulds, ambitious baking and the occasional glorious failure.
