# Handmade Food-Decorated Jewelry Etsy User 'SouZouCreations' Makes Appetizing Rings By Sarah Nazim | Published 2012-05-14 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sou-zou-creations References: [etsy](http://www.etsy.com/shop/SouZouCreations) These adorable rings by SouZouCreations look good enough to eat. The [handmade jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baked-in-gold) is inspired by a Japanese technique called kawaii, which is the method of taking a non-edible object and turning it into an appetizing one. Plastic food is a popular trend in Japan; hence the artist behind these rings, named Sofia, decided it would be a great product to offer. Her pieces are beautifully designed and very realistic; and there is a wide variety of food creations to choose from. You can cater to your sweet tooth with [ice cream sundaes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iconic-ice-cream) and cupcakes. Or you can go with something salty like a cold cut sandwich or a bagel. The collection also has beverage designs of pop cans, coffee cups and wine glasses. The SouZouCreations [kawaii ring collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wanderlust-co-x-rubirosa) offers mouthwatering pieces that are sure to add a distinctive look to your attire. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 74% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Handmade Food-decorated Jewelry:** Opportunity for creating unique and eye-catching jewelry pieces inspired by food. - **Kawaii Trend:** Opportunity to incorporate the Japanese kawaii trend into different industries, such as fashion, accessories, and home decor. - **Plastic Food:** Opportunity to create and market realistic plastic food products as decorative or functional items. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Jewelry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity in the jewelry industry by offering food-inspired and unique designs. - **Fashion:** Opportunity for fashion brands to incorporate food-inspired designs and kawaii aesthetics into their collections. - **Home Decor:** Disruptive innovation opportunity in the home decor industry by introducing food-inspired decorative items with a kawaii twist. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Confectionery-Inspired Ring Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brilliant-earth.md) - [Jewelry-Inspired Ice Pop Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zoku-ring-pop-mold.md) - [Chic AAPI Jewelry Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kin-studio-x-sua-suprette.md) - [Handcrafted Jewelry Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pretty-weird.md) - [Beverage-Aesthetic Playful Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slush-ring.md) - [Brick Toy-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-gogo.md) - [Bakery-Inspired Jewelry Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/greggs-1.md) - [Jewelry-Revealing Rock Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mschf-4.md) - [Crystal Seaweed Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/misaky-tokyo.md)
