Edible Art

I am always happiest when I am making things, but there is only so much artwork you can give to friends and family or display in your own home, so I have been creating more & more edible artwork in recent years. As long as they are well-documented for posterity in photos and video, why not make delicious & fun creations that are meant to be consumed by an appreciative audience?

Cakes and cupcakes are obvious categories, but there are some like the Edible iPhone, cookies or gingerbread sculptures that don’t quite fit, hence the general category Edible Art

I’ve been making fun decorated cakes ever since I’ve learned how to bake! More recent cakes are here by tag Cakes, but there are also more here: Cakes up to 2001

Sculpted chocolate, fondant and frosting can melt in the heat, but cookies last longer, especially in summer, plus they are easy portions!
