Criteria:
Make, bake,
fry, carve, cut, cook or otherwise present any food at all in some literary
manner. All edible books must be "bookish" through the integration of text,
literary inspiration or, quite simply, the form. Puns are welcome, but they
aren't necessary! See pictures from past years

What's this all about?
The Edible Books Festival is an International Event, with participation from venues in countries from Australia to Luxembourg to the United States, and almost everywhere in between. The festival was created by Judith A. Hoffberg and Beatrice Coron in 1999, and has grown ever since. Click here for the official site.
Myrin's first Edible Books Festival was held in 2005, led by
student assistant Jessica Gallagher. Take a look
at more pictures from
the past, too. Any questions or comments, please e-mail
