We all know how lovely cakes, cupcakes, and cookies can be, especially when you add the icing complex details and sculptures melting the mixture. But when it comes to eating the cakes - which can reach almost architectural heights - things can get a little overwhelming. (And if there is a ton of Fondant involved, you're pretty much the right sugar consumption.)
But if you could have a cake that was made from fresh ingredients and was yet quite beautiful? Well, you can. These vegan cakes are created by Stephen McCarty, who founded Sukhavati Raw Desserts. "Sukhavati" means "happy" in Hindi, and see why this makes sense when you take a look at these cakes.
Fruit, fruit and vegetable purees and other natural foods help the baker to create bright, cosmic designs. Nothing artificial here!

Your first thought might be, "No way, those who are too pretty to eat!" But it is good, really! McCarty wants them to be eaten. For him, these cakes are a perfect representation of the Buddhist philosophy. The concept of impermanence dictates that all things must change shape at some point.
This compares to Tibetan sand mandalas of which are large, colorful, and labor ... and they are destroyed at the end. Each cake, with its colors, symmetrical designs, is created to be eaten.
Thanks to Instagram, their images can live forever.
