Heston's Fantastical Food is a television cookery program starring chef Heston Blumenthal which broadcast on Channel 4 in the UK during late 2012. The programme follows Blumenthal as he supersizes a variety of food for presentation to members of the public.
Instead of serving up historical feasts to celebrities, Heston produces colossal versions of childhood food favourites such as a 99 ice cream cone and a Christmas pudding (the remainder of which went to homeless shelters) to serve to members of the public, usually in places that had a rich history of sweets or ice cream.
