These amazing works of art are not only surreal but apparently very delicious too. Louise Caola began posting her cakes on [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/what-cake-r-u) and [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/notifier) and after receiving much praise, recently quit her job to pursue this hobby-turned-job opportunity. Some of her works of art include roast beef and potatoes, french fries, chicken tenders and peas, and mashed potatoes and sausages. Caola says a lot of her work is trial and error, and her most difficult venture was [burger, fries and sweetcorn](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/choco-burger) because she had to hand roll each piece of corn individually. Without knowing, these would simply appear to be regular delicious meals, but rest assured, they are indeed made of cake batter and other sugary ingredients. You can check out Louise Caola’s new start-up cake brand called Poppy&Lulu online. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.9/10 - Popularity: 99% | Activity: 100% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Food Disguise Cakes:** The trend towards realistic food disguise cakes could create new opportunities for cake makers and event companies. - **Social Media Showcasing:** Social media can be a powerful tool for showcasing creative and unique cake designs, giving rise to potential influencers in the market. - **Artisan Cake Business:** The rise of artisan cake businesses, with uniquely designed cakes made with high-quality organic ingredients, could disrupt the traditional cake market. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Bakery and Confectionery Industry:** The baking industry could benefit from the trend towards unique cake designs and flavors, with new startups and established players creating innovative cakes. - **Event Planning Industry:** The event planning industry may benefit from the popularity of realistic cake designs, with event planners and coordinators collaborating with cake designers to create unique event experiences. - **Social Media Industry:** Social media platforms could become hubs for showcasing and promoting unique cake designs and flavors, with sponsored content and influencers playing a significant role in the market. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cardboard-Resembling Illusion Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cardboard-cake.md) - [Balloon Dog Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balloon-dog-cake.md) - [Game-Themed Cake Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/among-us-impostor-cake.md) - [Multilayer Canned Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canned-cake.md) - [Food-Inspired Novelty Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-of-savage.md) - [Hyperrealistic Food Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/looks-delicious.md) - [Cake-Themed Commercials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kfc-thailands-birthday-ad.md) - [Celebrity-Crafted Baked Goods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yolanda-gampp.md) - [Flagship-Celebrating Burger Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burger-cake-1.md)
