As part of The British Museum's Day of the Dead celebrations, AVM Curiosities present an exclusive sugar sculpture shrine; embellished with crystallised roses, chocolate Mexican Milagros and edible iconography. Made exclusively for the weekend's festivities, the piece will be on show in the North side of the Great Court from Friday 30th October - Monday 2nd November.
Along with AVM's bespoke creations, there will be chocolate skulls by Conjurer’s Kitchen and wallpaper by Anatomy Boutique in the display. A testament to the transience of its materials, this deliciously macabre confection is a celebration of the subjects of life, death and time.
