Cake shaped USB drive
Stylish USB drive are no longer for tech-savvy. They can be gifted from your boyfriend to your granny. There were ponies, bags, shoes and now cakes to affix on your computer to transfer some data. Targeted at budding geeks - age 14 upwards - the USB 2.0 series has some gorgeous-looking cakes. Black Forest, Strawberry Torte, Fruit Plate Cake and the French Mille-Feuille. In case you're wondering where the USB tip is (I was too), the flash drive is actually the knob-like structure with the crown stamped upon it, and lodges itself completely into the body of the cake.

Now here is a product that really does not do anything spectacular.
