Have you ever seen such pretty petals? The best part is that they’re edible. No fondant (the maker is very strict on this point) or plastic, just pure, rich and creamy buttercream icing.

The creator of these majestic blooms is Sori Jeong, a Le Cordon Bleu graduate based in Sydney, who runs her own company aptly named called IncrEdible Flower Cakes. She prides herself, quite rightly, on her exceptional piping skills and the fact that everything is made from scratch with much love, using free-range eggs, home-made fruit purée and Belgian Callebaut chocolate.

Let’s take moment to appreciate the beauty of her artwork.
