Woman Pushes The Limits And Creates Unbelievable Sculptures Out Of Gingerbread

女美食艺术家超越了极限，用姜饼做了令人难以置信的雕塑

Christmas means sipping hot choccy in front of the fireplace with your loved ones around you. But most of all, Christmas means gingerbread cookies! Now, there are some people who build gingerbread houses, which is all well and good. But have you ever tried making something… bigger?

圣诞节意味着和你爱的人一起在壁炉前啜饮热巧克力。但最重要的是，圣诞节意味着姜饼曲奇!现在，有一些人建造姜饼屋，这很好。但你试过把东西做大吗?

Well, Swedish food artist and motion designer Caroline Eriksson has! And her designs are much, much bigger than you’d expect when you hear the word ‘gingerbread.’

那么，瑞典食品艺术家和运动设计师卡洛琳·埃里克森已经!她的设计比你听到“姜饼”这个词时想象的要大得多。

Every Christmas, she designs and bakes incredibly detailed (and delicious) gingerbread sculptures. This year, she made Groot from “Guardians of the Galaxy.” Which might even be more impressive than last year’s creation—the Xenomorph from “Alien.” Grab yourselves some gingerbread cookies, scroll down for Bored Panda’s interview with the artist, and enjoy.

每年圣诞节，她都会设计并烘焙非常精细(而且美味)的姜饼雕塑。今年，她雕刻了《银河护卫队》中的格鲁特。这甚至可能比去年的作品——《异形》中的异形——更令人印象深刻。给自己拿些姜饼干，向下滚动屏幕观看Bored Panda对这位艺术家的采访，好好享受吧。

Here’s Caroline’s amazing Xenomorph gingerbread sculpture from last year

这是卡洛琳去年设计的令人惊叹的姜饼异种造型雕塑

Caroline has baked gingerbread statues since 2013 when she won a Norwegian baking contest, and every year she surprises her fans with new and impressive gingerbread art. It took the artist around 5 weeks to make Groot, and she had to add lots of syrup and flour to make the dough thick enough to support the sculpture. She even built the gingerbread sculpture around a metal frame to make sure that it wouldn’t collapse.

自2013年赢得挪威烘焙大赛以来，卡洛琳就一直在制作姜饼雕塑，每年她都会用新的、令人印象深刻的姜饼艺术给粉丝们带来惊喜。艺术家花了大约5周的时间来制作格鲁特，她不得不添加大量的糖浆和面粉，使面团足够厚来支撑雕塑。她甚至在金属框架周围做了姜饼雕塑，以确保它不会倒塌。

“I have been making gingerbread houses every year with my family since I was little,” the artist told Bored Panda. “After a few years, I got tired of houses and wanted to build other things, like boats, castles, and towers. My family didn’t have that patience but looked forward to seeing new creations every year.”

“从我很小的时候起，我每年都和家人一起做姜饼屋，”艺术家告诉Bored Panda。“几年后，我厌倦了房子，想建造其他东西，比如船、城堡和塔。我的家人没有那么大的耐心，但他们每年都期待着看到新的作品。”

“Then in 2013, I had moved to Norway and I entered a gingerbread contest where you could win 40,000 Norwegian krone [4,505 dollars]. I had been thinking about building a robot for a while, taking houses and boats one step further! I thought it must be possible to do – if I started with very simple square inner forms and added details on top.”

“然后在2013年，我搬到了挪威，我参加了一个姜饼比赛，你可以赢得40000挪威克朗(4505美元)。我想造一个机器人已经有一段时间了，让房子和船更进一步!我认为这一定是可能的——如果我从非常简单的方形内部形式开始，并在顶部添加细节。”

For this Christmas, Caroline made a gingerbread version of Groot from ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’

今年圣诞节，卡洛琳做了《银河护卫队》中格鲁特的姜饼版本

“It takes me around 5 weeks to make these creations. Groot and the Xenomorph both took 5 weeks: one for planning and four to build! I start by finding a lot of references and come up with ideas of what I want to create. Then I make a 1:1 scale sketch that I use as a reference for building a simple inner form first to get the proportions right. Then I add more and more details on top.”

“我花了大约5周的时间来制作这些作品。格鲁特和异形都花了5周的时间:1周用于计划，4周用于建造!我从寻找大量的参考文献开始，然后想出我想要创作的东西。然后我做了一个1:1比例的草图，我用它作为一个参考来建立一个简单的内部形式，首先得到正确的比例。然后我在上面添加越来越多的细节。”

“I make my own dough to make it harder with a smoother surface, for that I use more syrup, flour, and no baking powder! It’s still good for eating though,” the artist told Bored Panda. “For every creation I use around 6 batches, which is probably 7kg of flour and 11 packets of sugar. I use melted sugar as glue as well, it hardens fast, is strong, lasts very long and is edible!”

“我自己做面团，使它更硬，表面更光滑，为此我用了更多的糖浆、面粉，而不是发酵粉!”不过它还是很好吃的，”艺术家告诉Bored Panda。“我每做一道菜大约要用6个批次，大概是7公斤面粉和11包糖。我还用融化的糖当胶水，它硬化快，坚固，耐用，可食用!”
