Candy Becomes Larger Than Life in Creatively Delicious Photo Series

I love creative photography and I love candy, so it's safe to say that I'm obsessed with these shots of tiny people interacting with some of the best treats the world has to offer. You can see these and more in Christopher Boffoli's book, Big Appetites: Tiny People in a World of Big Food. (Amazon, $8.46 plus shipping.) Boffoli is a Seattle-based food writer and photographer whose little figures work in and around the food, and his clever captions bring understated humor to their truly extraordinary food experiences. The results with the candy photography are particularly delicious, whether it's a gumdrop balloon or peanut butter cup repair. (I think Willy Wonka would be well and truly jealous.) Take a peek at these tiny people tackling Halloween treats. My favorite is Big Jake, the blow pop jackhammer operator. I think he's inspired me to pass out lollipops to the kids in my neighborhood this year, so his work here is done. All images and captions courtesy of Christopher Boffoli. -By Laurie White
