A Quick Question,

how long do you think it would take a untrained person,

to learn how to make pies as good as this? bearing in mind that during those years the chef has worked with some of the world’s most iconic brands, including Amazon Studios, Christian Louboutin and Forbes, all photographs © Inspired to Taste/Instagram,

the answer,

it took Liz Joy-Murray just 3 years! ex-Hollywood art director turned food artist creates sugary masterpieces that look way too good to eat,

it all started when she had to take a break from her Hollywood career for health-related reasons. She had to fill her time somehow, and baking just stood out to her, only, being an artist at heart, Liz didn’t just settle for baking delicious treats, she decided to use her baked goods as canvases for her creative and vividly coloured designs,

“I’m always interested in learning new techniques and materials, and the trial-and-error process can tend to be a bit time consuming and chaotic. I generally learn the most through trial-and-error and sheer stubbornness,” Joy-Murray told Mail Online a couple of years ago,

 

“Pies generally take me at least a couple of days from concept to completion. That’s assuming I don’t destroy anything in the process.”

Joy starts with a sketch, and the ingredients required to make them, all the elements are baked and hand-decorated separately, and then juxtaposed over the pie to create this glorious, colorful masterpiece,

you may think that these are way too good to eat, but Joy enjoys eating them as well! “As long as I have photos of my dessert designs, I’m generally A-okay cutting into them, and more than happy to partake in the consumption,” Liz said. “I create my treats to taste good as well as look cool and I really want for them to be enjoyed.” we have featured cake bakers before here, and here, for more of Liz’s stunning pies, check out her official website and Instagram, where she routinely posts photos of her most recent projects,
