Jack Frost is leaving his chilly mark on Las Vegas this week and no wonder, since he showed up at Neiman Marcus at the Fashion Show Mall with the missus, Jewel Frost.

The Jack and Jewel at NM are entirely edible, created of more than 300 pounds of chocolate, 275 pounds of sugar, 50 pounds of cake, icing, sugar "glass" and sugar-cookie jewelry such as Jewel's tiara.

The characters and the flowers, presents and jewelry — everything in the display except the Christmas tree and table — were created by Robert Teddy, owner of M. Antoinette Cakes and a pastry instructor at Le Cordon Blue College of Culinary Arts, and Travis Martinez, a pastry chef at Caesars Palace, both of whom recently competed on the Food Network's "Cake Wars: Christmas."

Jack and Jill and all the rest will be on display through Christmas.
