Amazing. They're so realistic, I assumed it was done by some kind of plastication process applied to samples of real food. Hard to fathom that it's done by sheer artistic mimicry.
The (quite good) Wim Wenders film 'Tokyo-Ga' covers the manufacturing of these in some detail.
Thank you. Now I can be properly impressed, something the article didn't prove.
