The Hurtful Words Used During Breakups Are Reimagined As Something Sweet

by Robert Anthony

How exactly do you deal with a breakup?

Whether we've been on the giving or receiving end of a breakup, we've all been there at some point. The words expressing why your relationship is coming to an end are hardly ever sweet -- until now.

In a recent photo series composed by Isabella Giancarlo, we're introduced to EAT YR HEART OUT, an interesting (and tasty) series that reimagines the hurtful words exchanged during a breakup as something sweet -- literally.

Giancarlo, a project manager at a New York-based branding agency, recreates the bittersweet one-liners using pies, cookies, cakes and all sorts of other delicious ingredients.

The end result? Pure pie-fection! Check out the photos below for a closer look.

Oh, and next time you're about to break up with someone, send them one of these.

It doesn't matter if you're the one being broken up with or the one who has to break the bad news...

This one might actually hit home, though!

...you can't say you didn't try (there's a pie for that, too)!
