They look disgusting, but they taste amazing.
In Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom chilled monkey brains are served as a dessert.
These ones are made of chocolate cake with chocolate ganache, cheesecake brains, white chocolate skull and fresh raspberry jelly for blood.
Paramount pictures held a public event to launch the release of the blu ray DVD set of Indiana Jones. Copies were signed by John Rhys-Davies who acted as Sellah, a friend of Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

Brain Cheesecakes Recipe: The Brains themselves are cheesecake tinted pinkish so they look flesh toned. Reusable food grade casting gel can be purchased worldwide here.
Raspberry Blood Recipe: for the raspberry blood I used my raspberry sauce recipe that I make with frozen raspberries, I thickened it up using a little gelatin so that they would not spill during transit and would hold the brains in position. Follow the directions of the packet of gelatin as to the amount to use per volume of ‘blood’.
Chocolate Cake Recipe I used my favourite chocolate cake recipe of course.
Chocolate Ganache Recipe Chocolate ganache was used between the layers of cake and to cover the whole head before applying the fondant

Hi Joanna the silicon gel sets firm but flexible so you can bend it without it breaking.
OMG, I can’t eat it even though it’s a cake. It looks so real. You are so creative and awesome Ann.
Hi jessica, if you want something simple this cake is cute: http://www.flickr.com/photos/cakeoclock/6291078968/ it uses toy figures on top which makes it easier, for the pictures on the sides print out what you want from the computer and use that as a template to cut out your fondant.
