Food as art Article 1
The first website that I search for is one were they assumed that food is art because that is their business, let me explain this. This website is a site where you can buy real pieces of art made with food. Almost all of the products that you can buy in these place are made with chocolate. They say in the website that they can do everything that you want with chocolate and some of the things are unbelievable art works such as paintings, sculptures, etc. They do much more things like shoes, chess, jewellery…
In my opinion this relates to our discussion because in this website they are assuming that food is art and that you can do so many things with food and consider them as art. For them there are not discussion in if we consider food as art or no because they demonstrate that food could be art easily.
I found this website very interesting because I thought that you could do art with food, but the things that they show in this website are amazing. They can do almost everything that you ask for with chocolate. There is one sentence in the main page of the website that say: “Food is art can create anything in any food substance from chocolate to gravy!” and I think that if we do not consider this as art what art is going to be then?

I was surprised when I came upon the website as well. At first I only thought they created sculptures and other things with chocolate until later when I was looking closely at the website did I read that they were making things using gravy as well! It is amazing at how good those chocolate made sculptures and objects are. The best example would be the stove. It not only took the shape of the stove extremely well, but it also was crafted to look like an old and used stove similar to those back in the old days. I did not think they could do such amazing job with just chocolate.
