Matteo Stucchi is a pastry chef from Monza, Italy, who builds playful tasty-looking miniature worlds using only desserts and fills them with little figurines. “A dessert’s looks is just as important as its taste,” says Matteo, and we couldn’t agree more. Baked brownies become mining sites, cake pops turn into a Ferris wheel – there’s no limit to his wild imagination.
Italians have strong traditions of making unique foods, and pastry chef Matteo Stucchi is playing his part in keeping the Italian kitchen on top. He’s creating intricate desserts that look just like miniature worlds frozen in time.
The only thing that comes close to his creativity is his patience. The attention he gives to every detail is just exceptional. His efforts in creating miniature worlds with desserts didn’t go unnoticed. In just a couple of months, he reached 35,000 followers, and the number of sweet tooths is constantly growing.
