If you're serious about your pastries, you've probably already heard of the French chef Cédric Grolet, who's according to the Relais Desserts association, was the best pastry chef in 2016. If you haven't heard of him, though, there's no better way to get introduced to Cédric's work than through his tribute to the famous Rubik's Cube puzzle in the form of Rubik's Cake!

As you're about to see below, the impressive array of geometrical shapes is a running theme in Cédric's edible art pieces. From Rubik's cakes to millimeter-perfect flower muffins, this French food artist proves again and again why he's considered to be the very best in the business.

Sometimes a visual feast is more fulfilling than actually biting into it.

Why solve a Rubik's Cube when you can eat it?

A petit four by any other name.... is still a petit four.

It's like individual squares, served on small stacked plates.

    It answers mine too- sort of. I wanted to know what they tasted like and whether they were normal cakes.

    I could definitely solve this, I would just eat it and when anyone asks if I can solve it the rubix cube won't be there.....muahahahaha...

    This is way too complex. No way I could ever solve this.

    The only thing that would make this absolutely it's most perfect state of presentation would be to make the separator platform out of a dark chocolate. :-)

    These look like they're filled with tuna and pickle sandwiches.
