The Gemma Correll New Desserts drawings provide proof of the problems that arise from the consumption of these delicious confections. The likelihood of [death by chocolate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frutta-bowls-dubai-chocolate-menu) may not be high, but it definitely puts a damper on devouring a favorite snack. Gemma Correll, a UK-based freelance illustrator and comic book artist, has provided a cute and funny approach to staying weary of [decadent cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artful-cake).

This poster is a fresh revamping of indulgent favourites. No need to distress over potential pigging out; these [dark desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnaholic-cemetery-box) are a diet-friendly reminder of what to stay away from. Though the drawings are minimalistic in nature, they are straight to the point. Whether it is a STD by vanilla or a tummy ache by lemon, these drawings are a prevented measure. The cute critique allows Correll to give some literal food for thought.
