If there’s two things in life we love, it’s papercrafting and food. These incredibly talented artists and crafters have managed to combine two of the greatest loves in life, and create these amazing yummy food paper sculptures.

This incredibly realistic looking beef taco, filled with cheese, lettuce and tomato is the handiwork of Argentinian photographer Maria Laura Benavente Sovieri. Her full collection of food goodies can be found here, and include a birthday cake, seafood platter and meat hamper.
2. Rise & Shine!
Maria Laura Benavente Sovieri is just too talented not to showcase another one of her paper creations: just look at how the percolator (paperlator?) has paper steam coming out of it!
