Designer Mario Trimarchi's geometric-shaped food moulds can be used to produce edible pieces of furniture. The miniature bites are delectable with jello and custard fillings, ingredients that can be tapered with depending on how one wishes to enjoy the tiny tables.
Trimarchi released his moulds with the Alessi brand, an Italian label that specializes in design. This genre of edible architecture has yet to be fully explored by illustrators and cooks.
The intriguing merger between these two fields has only continued to grow despite their differences in focus and scope. These particular products have made for a delectable collaboration, now available in black, white, peace, kiwi and mango tones under the 'Il Tempo della Festa' (Holiday Time) title.
