Vegan 16-Year-Old Stuns The World With His Stunning Desserts And Breakfasts, Becomes Instagram Star
If you're one of those people who think that vegan foods are all leaves and dirt, get ready to be amazed. A 16-year-old Instagrammer named Jose is banishing 'boring food' by crafting colorful, vibrant, and completely vegan breakfasts and sweets that even dedicated carnivores are drooling over.
The teen tries out a variety of trendy dishes, such as smoothie bowls and raw cheesecakes, with shimmering frozen fruit acting as both the main ingredient and the 'crown of jewels' in each vegan meal. Creamy, fresh textures abound, making each edible arrangement seem more satisfying than the last. The most appealing part of Jose's food artworks, however, is the sheer amount of color he manages to pack into each one.
Well, it looks like employing a vegan diet might not be so bad after all! We promise you'll be hungry after scrolling down and seeing these all-natural edible artworks for yourself - just be sure to vote for the ones you'll try your own hand at making.

How in hell is she touching those blueberries? Have u guys ever tried to touch a frozen blueberry? I'm not saying like these are fake, but I feel like she must have done some photoshopping before posting. Way too smooth for my reality. :D

OK, maybe it is explained somewhere, but why on earth do blueberries and blackberries look bleached? :/

Hey look!... Berries.... Again. Frozen... Again. Liquid food around it... Again. I don't know anayone that likes to eat frozen berries. If you say vegan doesn't need to be boring... These 5 pages of picures just show the opposite.

Tons and tons of fruit, he must have the shits all the time! All the 'food' is just some white goop, food colouring and frozen fruit. Over and over again... ho-hum

"Stunning the world"?? Really. Photoshop has been around a long time, and hardly stuns anyone anymore.

Sorry, but graphic designers cannot be cheated so easily. We have clear - and bad - Photoshop here. =/

Well, it may not be leaves and dirt but I'm sure photoshop is also vegan.

Time to build your own start-up and sell these. While not vegan, I'd definitely buy all of these

It looks beautiful but to me it doesn't look quite right because it's all a bit too perfect. I get that more and more these days. Good shots though.

They look really nice. I bet at first they also taste ok. then after the fourth week of vegan chocolate and the same 4 fruit, you probably crave something a bit less pretty and more substantial.
Adriana E. Henricy 8 years ago
the heavy editing made it look all fake, no matter if it was or wasnt. ANy pictures or videos of the guy ACTUALLY making them?
Linda Gulley 8 years ago
Oy! So many frozen berries. Very pretty. Now give me bacon, eggs and toast, please.

I have to agree, photoshop skills are poor, and it is a shame everybody falls for it.

"Stuns the world"? Seriously? With all that bad Photoshop skills?

What I find really stunning is how people keep referring to the author as "she" even though it is very clearly written it's made by a boy. Guys cook too. Even if this one just pretends to, as I agree that these are heavily edited.

Veganism really IS dirt and leaves, with a little photoshop on top. Yep, this is p

I see its photoshop but he's 16 and he knows how to use it and he clearly loves food and trying to show what can he do using only vegan products why so much hate tho .. I like these photos they look aesthetic af .

Has anybody already mentioned that he might have used photoshop? (and, more seriously, for me it doesn't matter if he did. Still awesome pictures)

Love love love your food and everything looks delicious! Your editing is also absolutely on point! Keep up the excellent and delicious work Jose xxxx

While I'll commend him on his growing photoshop talent, the person who made the article didn't do a thorough job at screening these 'creations', a few are true recipes but made by someone else: ,https://imgrum.me/media/BXpNhCCFhfk

It seems like every other comment here is about the photoshop on these items, and I'm not sure why? Clearly he isn't claiming they aren't edited-- they're meant to look beautiful, which they totally do. It's not like his use of frosty spray and photoshop is going to give other blueberries and yogurt self esteem issues.

I don’t understand why there has to be so much negativity. So what if it is photoshopped it’s still real food that looks amazing. And done by someone extremely talented.. why don’t we try a lift each other up once in awhile instead of picking out the things that we see wrong.

These look amazing. Not technically vegan, but beautiful nonetheless.

I know it is photoshopped. And how can 16yo buy a vegan food? It is expensive in my country.
Jess Moore 8 years ago
So, we can agree they're all photoshopped, but are there vegan recipes that go along with these photoshopped creations? Or are they vegan because they are literally entirely digital creations?
Michealle Angela 8 years ago
They looked good but it's unnatural... I wouldn't add food coloring to my food just for the sake of aesthetic
Lyrica Silvan 8 years ago
This would be really cool if it weren't obviously faked. Apparently some of the photos are just straight-up stolen, too! I saw something about one of the only legitimate ones being from a Finnish cookbook, I think... If they were real I would have wanted recipes. Though I'm sure I could find recipes for real ones somewhere anyway. I'd suggest fact-checking your articles before you share them, BP. You're going to get yourselves into trouble posting things like this.

I don't get if his intent is to broadcast his cooking skills, his photographic/Photoshop skills or simply is lying to become insta-famous/have a laugh on us

In the first picture, the strawberries look fake on top. Like others, this does seem phptoshopped. Not hard to tell. Sadly. If it is real, where are the steps to do these deserts? We people need to end people who try and trick others for popularity.
Nicholas Yu 8 years ago
Those are not the hands of a 16 year old. Notice all the wrinkles. Just someone who needed to lie about their age to garner extra attention...
Nicholas Yu 8 years ago
Who is dumb enough to believe those wrinkled hands belong to a 16 yr old? The food looks amazing. No need to lie on top of that for attention...
Krista Kuipers 8 years ago
All photo's show that vegans die without frozen berries...it's ALL they eat apparently. Frozen fruit, liquid food and blue food colloring.

Aren't most people's pictures filtered, faded, veiled, photoshopped and cropped too?

Instead of criticising for doctoring photos, people should be congratulating the photographer for his fantastic eye, Photoshop skills, use of colour and lush aesthetic <3

while all of these are very pretty, i feel there would be so much sugar in these you would be better off drinking a coke. just looking at these makes my stomach hurt from the thought of all the sugar.

Society: Ugh, Millennials think they're so special. Me: I can spot a photoshopped image and a fake story through reasonable deduction skills, software knowledge, and fact checking because I grew up on the internet and know what to take with a grain of salt, how about yourself? Society: ... Millennials are noncommittal! Me : ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
