Food historians say sugar art dates as far back as 4000 B.C. In the 17th century, Catholic friars taught Mexicans how to use sugar to create ornaments and decorations used in Day of the Dead celebrations.
♦ From 4000 B.C. ... Fast Forward to the 20th Century
Michelle Wibowo, took the technique of sugar art to an entirely new level by creating and/or recreating incredible edible sugar sculptures. She recreated Michaelangelo's famous painting, 'The Creation of Adam', using marshmallows and sprinkles.
Food Ways thinks she should be called the "Sugar Artist of the Century".
