LEVEL ONE — What do you do when you've got sweet, sweet baking skills and a love for video games?

The n00b might just bake some cookies and eat them while gaming — a perfectly acceptable solution, but not entirely elegant or creative.

So what do the truly skilled and dedicated of the kitchen do? If you're like this man, you make this stop-motion video of Super Mario Bros. level 1-1, using a fluffy, fruit-filled cake. Yes, it is as delicious and delightful as it sounds.

YouTube user gamerboymedia said in the behind-the-scenes video that he wanted to make a Mario tribute for a while before landing on this idea. Since his sister is a professional cake decorator, he recruited her to make cupcake goombas, cake-pop mushrooms, a gingerbread castle, brownie steps and — perhaps most importantly — several different Mario sugar cookies to create all the gameplay action.

The video was first posted in 2014, but the Internet has only recently caught on to how scrumptious a cake version of Super Mario Bros. is. So, dig in to satisfy your gaming sweettooth.
