Christopher Boffoli takes playing with your food to a whole new level.

The Seattle based photographer is the mastermind behind "Big Appetites," a photo series and book that combines miniature human figures with foods to create life-like scenes.

From a man pushing a snowblower through piles of powdered donuts to a family camping trip under a broccoli forrest, Boffoli's photos are both whimsical and delicious.

Check out twelve of our favourite scenes.

These miniature scenes look so realistic, you almost forget they are made of food. Check out the tiny ATV tracks on this pumpkin pie.

Or this camping trip set under broccoli trees.

Forget crying over spilled milk, try canoeing in it.

Forget crying over spilled milk, try canoeing in it.

Smashed blackberries make for a delicious looking crime scene.

Boffoli also designs the miniature humans using a 3D printer.

He paints the figures, like this scuba diver, by hand.

Rock climbing looks a lot tastier in this piece, entitled "Palermo Climbers."

Boffoli's attention to detail is impressive. Check out the tiny traffic cone in this shot.

Boffoli also includes humourous, tongue-in-cheek captions with some of his shots.

"Gary always uses too much mustard. But no one can say so. It’s a union thing," Boffoli captioned this hot dog photo.

"Elliott finally found a place where he could smoke without being bothered," Boffoli writes.

"The headspace that the sugar cone tent afforded didn't really make up for its lack of performance in the rain," writes Boffoli.
