Food or Fashion? – Macaron Mask!

macaron-mask-1

This is my first baking project of the year and I wanted it to be something creative and conceptual. I didn’t want to pump out a dozen plain old macarons because I think macarons are one of the most beautiful foods to ever exist and I love the opportunity to showcase them in an artistic way.

macaron-art

mask-macaron-food-artThe idea behind this macaron mask was to blur the lines between food and fashion. Food can be so beautiful. Throughout time, we’ve been using it as art-like show pieces. Think chocolate fondue fountains, macaron towers, sculpted wedding cakes etc… We already know we can use food as art but can we say that between food and fashion? So macaron mask, “Is it food or is it fashion?”

Happy Baking to You

XoXo,

Mimi
