Fresh out of high school, he has been working on various portfolio items to take into him when he starts his course at the [University of North Texas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-confectionery-store). Garret Steider's latest work combines [typography design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pumpui) with a little bit of [culinary experience](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mothers-day-artist-collection). Taking all food and condiment items, Steider uses his hands and a few utensils to carve and mold these confectionery items into typographic displays. Garret Steider creates each letter with a variety of items from Nutella to Zucchinis and the carving uses some stellar typography. If he is able to create this work before even entering university, he's going to definitely excel in the future. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 34% | Activity: 18% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Food Typography:** Combining design with food to create edible typography offers opportunities for new ways of displaying texts and messages. - **Edible Design:** Exploring the possibilities of edible design expands the range of products that can blend functionality with taste. - **Culinary Artistry:** Exploring the intersection between cooking and art offers opportunities for creative expression and innovation. ### Where This Applies - **Food Industry:** The food industry could take advantage of this trend by creating new products that appeal to consumers looking for aesthetically pleasing and tasty food. - **Advertising Industry:** Advertising professionals can use edible typography to create memorable and effective campaigns that engage multiple senses. - **Art and Design Industry:** This trend offers opportunities for artists and designers to experiment with new materials and methods, and create new forms of expression that blur the boundaries between art, design, and food. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Toddler-Focused Typography Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/my-first-book-of-fancy-letters.md) - [Typography-Inspired Lifestyle Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-industries.md) - [Modular Typography Stamp Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-typography-stamp-set.md) - [Modular Typography Stamp Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blockface.md) - [Instant Noodle-Crafted Fonts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/times-new-ramen.md) - [Edible QR Codes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interiqr.md) - [Fruit-Inspired Design Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-grounds.md) - [Design-Centric Dynamic Artful Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artful-cake.md) - [Typographic-Inspired Intricate Textiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glyph-collection.md)
