Among some of her creations are unicorn (yes actually) and flower gnocchi.

She has even made a purse and jacket entirely out of pasta.

Nicholson is asked constantly if her pasta tastes as good as it looks.

The short answer is yes.

“I put just as much effort into making it delicious as I do to making it beautiful, because it’s art, but it’s edible art,” Nicholson said.

While she doesn’t sell her pasta on a wide scale, Nicholson posts video tutorials, and wants to teach people how to make great pasta.

She said her pasta is perfect for all different types of people “because it’s made from vegetables, herbs, and superfoods.\"

\"It’s also really good for you,\" she continued, \"so a lot of busy parents looking to get healthy food into their kids will also be drawn to it.”

We can’t wait to see what type of pasta she makes next.
