Looking at the reflections in the shiny bits, looks like something made in a kitchen or something that is placed in the home by a window.

Well done Babs, I thought without clues this one would take a while.

You certainly can not eat it, would make you very sick.

Hydnellum Peckii
Despite the fact this mushroom appears to leak strawberry jam, it is not edible. You can find this unique mushroom in Europe, North America, Iran, and most recently in Korea as of 2010.  Due to its appearance it has earned names like strawberries and cream, and the bleeding tooth fungus. It’s the young and moist mushrooms that secrete these unique pigments known for their anticoagulant properties.

Edit: These would be a death trap for kids I would think.
