The Edible Mastic Figurines of Dilya Kabilova

By Spooky on September 10th, 2020 Category: Art

Moscow-based confectioner Dilya Kabilova specializes in edible mastic figurines that look more like exquisite porcelain dolls.

Kabilova, who operates her own cake making business, uses mastic figurines as the main decorative elements for her cakes, which makes sense considering how incredible they look. Her “Disney Princess” series, which featured figurines inspired by heroines like Rapunzel, Jasmine or Elsa, was a big hit with fans and catapulted to stardom on Instagram, where she currently has over 117,000 followers. Talk about “too good-looking to eat”…

Dilya Kabilova takes custom cake orders, but also holds individual master classes in mastic figurine design, if you want to try your at making exquisite edible art.

Looking at Dilya Kabilova’s exquisite sugar figurines, I was reminded of another talented mastic artist we featured not so long ago, China’s famous “Sugar King”, Zhou Yi.
