1. Alejandra De La Cruz (@jellobyalejandra)

Alejandra De La Cruz (@jellobyalejandra) is a Houston-based food artist specializing in gelatin desserts with elaborate floral designs. De La Cruz uses a food syringe to painstakingly inject colored gelatin into a clear base to form each flower petal by petal. As beautiful as the finished products are, watching De La Cruz make them is just as interesting. From a red chrysanthemum to a rainbow rose, De La Cruz can create an entire garden out of gelatin.

TikToker Mia (@mialovefoods117) has garnered a sizable following for her delicately detailed dishes. Her pastel-hued step-by-step tutorials for recipes such as strawberry sugar cookies or a breakfast bagel are like watching ordinary food transform into an extraordinary masterpiece.

3. Macaron Barbie (@macaronbarbie)

Food artist Jules (@macaronbarbie) is a macaron queen. Using assorted fondant, icing colors and intricate baking tools, Jules takes your average disc-shaped macarons a step further by turning them into fun characters such as Buzz Lightyear and adorable lounging potatoes.

4. Nikk Alcaraz (@nikkalcaraz)

Food artist Nikk Alcaraz (@nikkalcaraz) creates dishes with a dark side. Each spooky serving features ordinary ingredients painstakingly altered to look like a scary movie on a plate. Alcaraz’s quiet and eerie narration that accompanies his recipes for menacing meals like a Hocus Pocus pot pie and an edible eye bouquet adds another layer of creativity, making his videos especially entertaining. Here, he takes on Stranger Things.

5. Ruby Perman (@rubyperman)

TikToker Ruby Perman’s (@rubyperman) work is a clever combination of fashion, food and entertainment. Her process involves pasting a celebrity’s face on a plate, then using whatever food and ingredients are needed to style a fashionable look. Some examples include Kylie Jenner looking fresh to death in a kale ball gown and Billie Eilish pushing sartorial boundaries with this Froot Loop couture look. Here, Sia is outfitted in fondant bows and lollipops.
