Kristina Lechner creates fake food with everyday household objects at her site, Food Not Food. More lovely photos at her Instagram account for the project.
I'm not sure that one of those is the best treat to leave out for Santa...

It is so worth looking at these on instragram where she explains what objects she uses to create them.

I think the cinnamon toothpaste + match-head cherry pie filling is my favourite.

I'm getting so hungry looking at the instagram account.

Now that I know shower gel looks so much like maple syrup, I'm not sure I can ever do Sunday brunch again.

These are fun and clever! I was expecting them to make me feel the angry sadness I feel when I'm at an arts fair and see somebody selling exquisitely crafted cupcakes out of a bakery style display, only to realize they're made of soap.

McDonald's and KFC strangely absent. I suppose Kristina can't afford a lawyer.
I once discovered my tabasco in the bathroom vanity next to the emergency toilet roll. Not everyone is a fan.
The Japanese have an entire artform of miniature fake food.

I love that she reveals what she uses for everything, it makes it even more fun. Washclothes make convincing burgers AND ice cream.
