Big Custard Cream

I don't know why I decided to make this, other than I picked a Custard Cream out of its packet and decided to model and print the design. It was a fun one and printed really nicely. My daughter likes to play cooking with it.

The dimensions are exactly double life-size, as I wasn't convinced the details would turn out as clear as I wanted at 1:1. Plus a big one looks funnier.

This version could be used for a number of things such as:

• Drinks coaster (Probably not for hot drinks if PLA)
• Hair slide (Maybe try heating the print in the oven over a cylindrical metal surface)
• Fridge magnet
• Novelty medallion

Additionally, it could be remixed, inverse, as an actual biscuit stamp to make your own.

This is not based on the "GIANTS Custard Cream" product, but a normal size original. It is really only intended as a sort of 2.5D design exercise; the top pattern is quite authentic but the lines on the real biscuit in general are a lot softer and curved.

Making this, I learned that there are small variations in the biscuit design - fancy eating these things for years and not noticing. Although in fairness, I can say they were going in my mouth and not my eyes.

There are two .gcode variations included - one authentic “mono” and a two-colour “iced” variety that is pictured (use any amazing combo of colours.) These are both sliced with the Arachne perimeter generator in PrusaSlicer 2.5.0-alpha3, while the one pictured was sliced in 2.4.2+ and probably doesn't look as good on the top details.
