Delectable Chocolate Shoe Designs

These Chocolate Nike Designs are Sure to Make Your Mouth Water

— May 17, 2013 — Lifestyle
There are two things in the world that are going to be popular no matter what: chocolate and Nike designs. Artist and sneaker enthusiast Joost Goudriaan mashed together those two items to make the ‘Chocolate Air Max 1.’

The chocolate shoes are designed just like the iconic Nike Air Max 1. The delectable sneakers were made using size 10 shoes for its design concepts. Each pair of chocolate Nike shoes were made in white and milk chocolate. The intricate designing of the shoes almost makes it too hard to eat, but definitely not impossible.

No detail is spared from the construction of these sweet sneakers. It would’ve been fun to see what the shoes would’ve been like, if a person was able to wear them. But sneakers probably would’ve melted within a few minutes.
Trend Themes
1. Edible Sneaker Designs - Opportunity for creating edible versions of iconic sneaker designs for novelty and gift purposes.
2. Crossover Food Design - Innovative collaborations that combine different industries, such as fashion and food, to create unique and attention-grabbing products.
3. Aesthetic Food Art - Exploration of food as an artistic medium, blurring the lines between food and visual art.
Industry Implications
1. Gourmet Food and Confections - Opportunity for confectionary businesses to create high-end, specialty chocolate products that cater to the fashion and sneaker enthusiast market.
2. Fashion and Apparel - Potential for brands to collaborate with food artists to create limited-edition food-inspired fashion items, merging the worlds of fashion and food.
3. Art and Design - Emerging market for food artists and designers who specialize in creating visually appealing and edible art pieces, like the chocolate Nike designs.
