The distinctive aspect of this dessert is its presentation, and on top of that it's fun to eat. The combination of flavors is also important to note; Roussel is a master when it comes to creating mouth-watering desserts, and his ability to think outside the box is what has led him to be highly recognized in his field. Roussel's [edible makeup palette](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edible-makeup-palettes) is another example of his ability to not only understand his target market, but offer products that are not found anywhere else. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.7/10 - Popularity: 11% | Activity: 2% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Gourmet Cones:** Innovative, eye-catching and delightful dessert creations are a huge trend in the food and beverage industry. - **Unconventional Flavor Combinations:** Trendy foods with unexpected flavor combinations are becoming increasingly popular and present an opportunity for manufacturers to create unique twists on classic products. - **Edible Art:** Food can be art, and the trend of creating visually-stunning desserts and confections continues to grow in the culinary world. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** Restaurants, bakeries, and confectionery shops can leverage these trends to create unique and Instagram-worthy desserts that will draw in customers. - **Event Planning:** These unique and visually stunning dessert creations can be utilized in weddings and other events as they're not just delicious, but also serve as fun and interactive centerpieces. - **Manufacturing:** These trends present an opportunity for manufacturing companies to create innovative dessert products that cater to the growing demand of consumers for unique and distinct flavors and presentations. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Luxe Cotton Candy Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/art-of-sucre.md) - [Lollipop-Inspired Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-menorquina-chupa-chups.md) - [Macaron Ice Cream Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loriginal-macaron-ice-cream.md) - [Gourmet Festive Creations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourmet-festive-creations.md) - [Novelty Gelato Pops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelato-pop.md) - [Macaron-Inspired Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flavours-of-love.md) - [Soft Serve Croissants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/evana-patisserie-cafe.md) - [Filled-Center Cheese Lollipops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheese-lollipop.md) - [Craft Cocktail Lollipops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourmet-cocktail-lollipop.md)
