We've all seen some pretty spectacular art installations.
Remember when we showed you the artist who transforms normal floors into scenes straight out of Candy Land?

Recently, Scott Hove teamed up with fellow artist Keith Magruder, AKA Baker's Son, to create an insane exhibit at Think Tank Gallery in Los Angeles called "Break Bread" that really takes the cake.
No, I'm serious, this thing is basically a 7,000-square-foot maze made entirely out of cake.
The exhibit consists of a sprawling six-room maze filled with all kinds of sweet sculptures and candied artwork that will make you feel like you're walking through Willy Wonka's private residence.
Amidst the towering treats, you'll also find things like sugar-coated guns and cake-clad, razor-sharp teeth that add a dark twist to the message buried within this frosted fantasyland.
There's a dualistic element to all this -- the aggressiveness, the potential for violence, then it starts telling a story that people can relate to.

Take a look at the pictures below to see this amazing cake installation.

For their latest project, Break Bread, artists Scott Hove and Keith Magruder, AKA Baker's Son, set out to transform Think Tank Gallery in Los Angeles...
