Two years ago, confectioner Lauren Ko started making intricate and artistic desserts. Do you remember that Bored Panda post from last year? Well, as it turns out, she started to bake even more and her amazing work got even better!

Her speciality is pies with geometric patterns, straight lines and contrasting colors. She uses various flavors, colors and textures that we would never imagine to find in pies. Her work is a true art and often lead people to believe that she has professional training in art, design and cooking. The truth is that she never had a professional training, she just always loved art.

Lauren was born in San Diego, California, but recently moved to Washington, where she opened her own confectionery - Lolo Kitchen.

Her Instagram account has a lot of followers who are eager to try her amazing pies. So do not waste your time and scroll the page, your eyes will thank you!

This is really awesome but after viewing the entire post I have come to the conclusion that this lady has way too much time on her hands.

How is it having way too much time on her hands when this is clearly what she does for a living? Talk about jealousy.

Unless you have PICA, who would want to eat that? It's neat looking, but not appetizing in the least.

    Technically edible. Dried flowers won't poison you or anything. They are actually becoming a thing in sweets desecration but I'm a bit on the edge about it myself, I mean it is just dried grass kinda...not disgusting but not exactly tasty either. I feel like there're equally and more cool looking brains of decorations to be made from actually tasty stuff.

    Fairly easy actually, cut a lot of this steps from dough and put them on your pie one, next one slightly overlapping with previous one, all positioned at the angle at which they leave the centre blank. You kinda see the direction she went if you look closely.
