# Cereal Scultpures Rice Krispies Edible Art By Bianca | Published 2008-05-31 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rice-krispies-recipe-art References: [ricekrispies](http://ricekrispies.ca/cgi-bin/rk_ca_2007/recipe.pl?id=9) If you've ever lived in North America, chances are, you've had Rice Krispies . The puffed rice is equally well known for its gooey dessert counterpart, [Rice Crispy Squares](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rice-krispies-square), as it is for its snap, crack and popping effects when eaten as traditional cereal. While the treat has been popular for decades, [Kellogg's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rice-krispies-milk-chocolate-eggs) continues to promote the [easy DIY desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unicorn-crispy-bar), from printing the traditional recipe on their boxes to seriously revamping them online. The gallery shows some of the really creative edible art ideas from the Rice Krispies site. Among them are ultra-nerdy remote controls, manicured fingers, fall leaves and a creepy caterpillar. My favourite is the pizza, which only takes 10 minutes to work! Strawberry jam simulates the tomato paste base, yellow frosting looks like cheese and the salami rounds are made of Fruit Roll Up fruit snacks. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 67% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/toys) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Edible Art:** With the popularity of viral food art, there is an increasing demand for edible sculptures and designs, creating opportunities for artists and bakers alike. - **DIY Desserts:** With an emphasis on convenient and simple recipes, there is an opportunity for companies to develop products that cater to the growing trend of DIY desserts. - **Revamped Recipes:** As companies look to innovate and refresh old recipes for a modern audience, there is an opportunity to explore new flavor profiles and incorporate unusual ingredients. ### Where This Applies - **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry can capitalize on the trend of edible art and DIY desserts by offering innovative products and services that cater to this growing market. - **Hospitality and Events:** The hospitality and events industry can provide unique and memorable experiences by featuring edible art and DIY dessert stations in their offerings. - **Creative Design:** The creative design industry can collaborate with the food industry to create visually appealing edible art that satisfies both aesthetic and gastronomic cravings. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cereal-Studded Easter Eggs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rice-krispies-milk-chocolate-eggs.md) - [Rice Cereal-Studded Chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rice-krispies-milk-chocolate-n-cereal-bunny.md) - [Frozen Marshmallow Square Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rice-krispies-treats-ice-cream.md) - [Spooky Marshmallow Square Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rice-krispies-scares.md) - [Sundae-Flavored Breakfast Cereals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crispy-rice-cereals.md) - [Festive Prepackaged Cereal Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rice-krispies-squares-yule-log-style.md) - [Cinnamon Sugar Lunch Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rice-krispies-treats-homestyle-cinnamon-sugar.md) - [Chromatic Halloween-Themed Cereals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rice-krispies-shocking-orange-colored-cereal.md) - [Cereal Bar Game Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/treat-eat-compete.md)
