A tasty art exhibition has been staged at a London gallery – made entirely from snacks.

A total of 12,000 Twiglets, 54kg of Cream Crackers and 10kg of Mini Cheddars were used to make the 3D sculptures and celebrity portraits at White Space Gallery.

Taking a week to put together, the Jacob’s Snack Happy exhibition celebrated the best of British and featured landmarks such as Stonehenge and the Angel of the North.

The biscuits and crackers have also been used to make dozens of celebrity portraits including the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

Renowned food artist Nathan Wyburn, from Cardiff, spent 24 hours compiling the celebrity portraits.

The wall art, signed with the snack he used rather than his name, included portraits of Cheryl Cole, Harry Styles, Twiggy, Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby.

Mr Wyburn, 24, said: “A few mouthfuls went missing as part of the creative process but I’m delighted with the end result.”
