]]>Eventually, this part-time creative director would make more complex pies, resulting in a passion project that persisted even after the lockdown ended. We already showcased some of her creations a while back, and you absolutely loved them. Considering that Scarfe recently started focusing on “portrait pies,“ we figured we could give you an update on her new project.
Using her artistic background, she manages to recreate the faces of pop culture characters and celebrities on her pies with impressive attention to detail. So far, she has made pies dedicated to Santa Claus, rapper Notorious B.I.G., painter Vincent Van Gogh, and June from the hit series The Handmaid’s Tale, among others.
“Baking is a way to nurture my creativity and to connect with people – both around the world and down the road,” she explains. “It’s also a bloody good excuse to eat pies!”

]]>To make the whole thing even better, the mastermind behind the viral page Loko Kitchen isn’t a pastry chef or pie maker. She used to work as an executive assistant and had no background in the design or culinary world when she decided to embark on this journey.
Her decision to give pie-making a shot paid off big time. She now has over 400,000 Instagram followers under her belt, she’s made pies alongside none other than Martha Stewart, and she even published a New York Times bestseller Pieometry: Modern Tart Art and Pie Design for the Eye and the Palate.
Ko’s pies are instantly recognizable thanks to their colorful, intricate, geometrical designs. Most people believe it takes a lot of time and effort to come up with each one, but Ko’s creative process is surprisingly straightforward.
“I keep a Pinterest board of different geometric patterns… Usually, I have a general idea in my head. I don’t sketch anything out. Depending on how cooperative the dough or fruit is, it kind of evolves from there. Most of the time the finished product is improvised,” Ko told Vogue.

]]>Having no prior experience in the kitchen, Clark-Bojin started backing pies for dietary reasons back in 2015. Then, to make it more fun, she cut out the shape of a dragon on top and her family was amazed, so she stuck to it, challenging herself further with each pie.
“To me, Pie Art isn’t a ‘new fad’ – it’s the uncovering of a lost art form, a way of expressing our love of food and pop culture, a way of discovering new cultures, new flavors, new techniques, of stretching ourselves creatively and intellectually, a new way of providing special dessert treats for the health-conscious, a way of meeting new weird and wonderful people, a way of bonding with the next generation and passing on our love of baking, and most of all a new way of having fun,” she shared with Bored Panda.
