Does the sight of a luscious slice of chocolate cake immediately make your mouth water?

Then take a gander at this!


Yes, it is a slice of chocolate cake... but a very very tiny view of that slice.

It's artist Caren Alpert's series of food, photographed with microscopes usually reserved for scientific research... now used to make art. Food is an art form, from many different angles and viewpoints!

See the rest of her images (including shrimp tails and oreos) at Caren Alpert's gallery.
