Lick Your Own Likeness with a Face Licker Lollipop

Want someone to lick your face? Besides your dog, I mean. Well, now you can make your face completely lickable by anyone. I’m talking about a life-size, lickable, lollipop version of your face. This is made possible by Firebox’s new “Face Licker” service.

Want someone else’s face? No problem. It doesn’t have to be your own face. Firebox will make a delicious lollipop version of a friend or a celebrity if you want. Maybe you want Ben Affleck or Gal Gadot. Maybe you want Woody Allen. They don’t care. They will make it and deliver it, ten it’s up to you to either display it forever or get licking on that face. Speaking of Batman and Wonder Woman, I wonder if they would do superheroes.

All you have to do is submit a photo and a short description of the person you want to be immortalized in lollipop form, and then pony up $55. Obviously, there are no returns if you’re disappointed. Also, you don’t get to choose the flavors that go into your custom lollipop. It’s tutti-frutti for every face.
