Up close, we see donuts… and that’s a good thing. However, if we take a step back, and/or squint real hard, portraits of famous people start to appear… and, that’s even better.
Created by artist, Candice CMC, the large-scale works are created with photos of thousands of donuts, using a pointillist-type technique to help the images come together.
Have some wall space and like donuts? Prints of the donut portraits are on sale here.

Disney [perhaps you’ve heard of them] now own almost every entertainment franchise out there. However, it’s their original characters that we still relate to the most, and the ones that still give us the warm and fuzzies.
Artist Erin Jang knows this, and has created a fun series of Disney character portraits made out of food. Mickey’s pet, Pluto, stares back at us through olive and provolone eyes, while Olaf vies for warm hugs with a nori smile.
Check them out below, and more of Jang’s work at @theindigobunting.
Stop trying to make fancy-shaped pancakes, or the ones that look nothing like Spongebob. Facial recognition, 3D-printing, and pancake art have finally joined forces, and breakfast just became even more important.
UK design firm, Kinneir Dufort, has created a machine that will help step up your pancake game. Combining CNC (Computer Numerical Control) technology with face recognition software — the printer dispenses batter systematically to help cook for different times, creating highlights and shadows.
Unfortunately, the pancake printer is not yet available for mass consumption. You’ll just have to tolerate “That doesn’t look like Spongebob, I’m not eating!!” every morning for a bit longer.
