Glass Food Sculptures Look Good Enough to Eat

Miwa Ito is a glassblowing artist in Japan. She's made sculptures of many animals and characters, but much of her recent work focuses on remarkably realistic depictions of food. She calls them itadakimasu, which is the phrase that Japanese people traditionally speak before beginning their meals.

By carefully manipulating the molten glass of different colors, she's able to shape and layer the material into delicious creations.
