This chocolate cake embroidered with lace and beads looks good enough to eat - the trick is you cannot! 

These hand-sewn confections made by Zhenne Wood, a Bay-Area artisan based in Emeryville, are one-of-a-kind creations made of yummy fabrics and embellished with handsewn glassbeads, sequins, carnelians and signed and dated on the bottom.  The tops of the cakes and chocolates are reversible and lavishly embellished as well.

Many of her artworks in this category of "Faux Gateaux Patisserie" are no longer available for purchase.  A collector's piece of cake!
