Foodscaping
Akiko Ida and Pierre Javelle (a French pastry chef/arts photography team) create landscapes out of food: mushrooms, kiwis, salads, ice cream, watermelons, cakes. Cauliflower, even.
The result is actually really funny and great, and can be seen through the duo's own photographs:

Gastronomic landscapes, or gastronomescapism, perhaps.
For those curious, of course, there's more to be read at the Galerie Fraîch'Attitude (in French); and, if you have a lot of patience and a high tolerance for slow and completely unnecessary Flash, then you can visit their own website for some more images – some really, really great images – making all the frustrating Flash b.s. almost worthwhile.

I love this, especially the watermelon one. Small-scale sculpture gets no respect, unless it's jewelry or maybe the atomic-level sculpture that nanotechnologists make, and even that is just because it's novel.
This guy carves sculptures into the lead of a pencil, while it's still attached to the pencil. His site says the sculptures take years to complete — good lord, seriously?
i saw prints of these FoodScapes in a gallery in Barcelona last year, there are others too, very cool...
very creative! and does anyone remember the photographer who did the mini people like this but the landscape was a womans's body?
these guys are great! i attempt play of scale in my photo cutouts too. http://michael.farm.sg/?p=14
