Kim Kardashian, 'Twilight' star Taylor Lautner immortalized with licorice

We have seen a bunch of unusual tributes to celebrities over the years, from rock songs to love letters to even the occasional painting. However, how many people can say that someone made their likeness out of Red Vines licorice?

Kim: getting the wax treatment.

E! Online has photos of reality TV Kim Kardashian and "Twilight" actor Taylor Lautner both getting the licorice treatment in new works of art that actually look fairly identical to their real likeness. This only comes a matter of weeks after a wax figure was created at Madame Tussauds in Kim's honor. (Lautner, meanwhile, is in wax museums around the country as Jacob Black.)
While it may be one of the stranger ideas thrown out there, credit has to be given to the artist for actually taking the time to put together something like this.
Who would you like to immortalize in random candy pieces?
