Placing heavy emphasis on the presentation of food, Caitlin Freeman demonstrates how to create artistic delights in her recipe book Modern Art Desserts.
Basing her work on iconic works of art from the modern art era, Freeman incorporates bold lines and graphic shapes into the assembly of her dishes. The Mondrian Cake for example, a delicious creation of white velvet cake and a chocolate ganache, becomes a visual experience as well as a taste experience when it is designed to look like one of Piet Mondrian's artistic canvasses. A simply scrumptious cup of hot cocoa looks more fancy when embellished with a pyramid of homemade marshmallow.
From simple inspirations to complex-looking concoctions, Caitlin Freeman's book of Modern Art Desserts is sure to impress all modern art ingenues and any style-savvy crowd.
