Freddie and the Chocolate Factory
Freddie was born in 1966 in Adam Island. He first worked as a cook before becoming food stylist and finally photographer. He has always embraced very tasty activities, enjoying aesthetic as well as technical stuff. This time, the gourmet-photographer tranformed his studio into a culinary experimental lab to achieve his new series.
The Chocolate factory is using a very old technique in the confection of chocolate-coat cakes. Freddie froze during several days objects picked from his own world, then he sprayed hot chocolate on them using an airbrush. Turned away from their function through this very personal little cuisine, these entirely chocolate coated objects thus took slick design profile with a delicate velvet finish.

let me guess, judging by the photos it’s dark chocolate.

[...] 31 Aug These choctastic photographs created using a very old technique more commonly used in the confection of chocolate-coat cakes; objects were deep frozen then sprayed with hot melted chocolate using an airbrush. The combination of distinguishable classic technology designs, and a smooth chocolate finish, is such a winner. Now I’d LOVE to see if you could create the ultimate christmas chocolate tree like this too (makes mental note to mention to Sam Bompas for some playtime), read more here. [...]
