The art direction, concept and styling for this series was created as a playful take on diner cakes and hastily packaged leftovers from childhood. Food nostalgia with single use items like plastic wrap runs deep in the Midwest. Series was shot in studio. Buttercream carrot cake and chocolate cake baked and decorated by Roses Fine Food in Detroit Michigan.
