Some treats should really go into an art gallery instead of your mouth.

Like these Brutalist-inspired delights by Danish designer and Squirting Pussygoldsmith Kia Utzon-Frank, which look like they've been chipped from the side of a concrete skyscraper.

Inspired by the modernist architecture prominent from the '50s to the '70s, KUFstudios founder Utzon-Frank created an elegant collection of flødeboller — a kind of Danish treat consisting of Italian meringue on a wafer or almond paste base covered in chocolate.

"I have been making sharp, geometric cakes with printed marzipan that looks like marble and stone and other patterns I like for a couple of years," Utzon-Frank told Mashable.

"One day in the kitchen I decided to attempt to make some flødeboller. I am from Denmark and missed them as you can’t get them in the UK so it was the only way I could get my hands on them."

After working on some Brutalist paper engineering classes with London-based art center Barbican, Utzon-Frank was commissioned by the institution to run Brutalist inspired flødebolle masterclasses.

"I spent the next couple of days in my kitchen, trying to make chocolate look like concrete," she said. "As I am not a chocolatier or a pastry chef (I’m originally a goldsmith), I am just playing around until something works."

So, how do you make them? Utzon-Frank crafted these perfect geometric treats using handmade moulds, then played around with the chocolate to make it resemble granite and marble.

"They are made more like moulded chocolates than original flødeboller, that are piped up and dipped in chocolate," said Utzon-Frank. "I decorate the mould with coloured cocoa butter and chocolate. I use charcoal, black sesame, and other natural colourants to get the colours and structures.

"Then the chocolate shells are filled with an Italian meringue and a 66 percent almond paste base."

When they're set, they look like this:

Where can you try one? Right now, only London. You can give them a taste if you sign up for a masterclass with Utzon-Frank in KitchenAid's Central London HQ, but she'll also be doing a weekly Friday delivery in London only. Lucky folks in the city will be able to place their orders on the KUFstudios website until Thursday.
