Cristiam Ramos is a talented artist best known for his project called Candy Portraits in which he uses different kinds of sweets, like gummy bears, licorice, M&M’s, bubble gum, mints, and sweet tarts to create yummy portraits of famous people. Each picture counts around 6,000 pieces of your favorite candy.

The award winning artist came up with his idea four years ago, while sitting in a park and watching a child’s reaction after getting a candy from his dad.

Soon enough, Ramos began making his masterpieces, and nowadays, each picture sell for thousands of dollars depending on the size and the number of sweets used.
