Have your parents ever scolded you for playing with your food? Well, next time, show them one of Amaury Guichon’s videos. The French-Swiss chocolatier and pastry chef molds cakes and chocolate into edible sculptures—telescopes, little drummer boys, lions, and even full-sized violins. He posts videos of these creations online and ends many of them with the same sign-off: taking a big bite out of his masterpiece.

Born in Switzerland, Guichon always loved food and art. At age 14 he moved to France and started his culinary training. Next, he was back in Switzerland to study chocolate and pastry.
