Have you ever made a terrarium before? It's basically a tiny succulent garden that fits into a glass container and adds the perfect amount of greenery to any tabletop without taking up much space from other non-essential coffee table items like a million half-filled glasses of water, snacks, and The New Yorker magazines.
Some people have cleverly taken the idea of the terrarium and transformed them into trifle desserts that are basically made for plant-loving foodies.
Blogger The Wondersmith created this version with a chocolate zucchini cake, rich chocolate avocado mousse, "mossy" crumbled spinach cake, and various agave-formed succulent pieces painted with matcha and spirulina powders.
This recipe is one to tackle on a rainy day, or one where you feel like your patience is at an optimal level.
Simply layer the trifle bowl with sandy or soil-colored cake, icing, cream, or custard, and then top with edible succulents that you can create from succulent-shaped molds.
Instagrammer @ceriscakecreations used chocolate cake, crumbled biscuits, fondant pebbles, and flowers buttercream cactus' that are held upright by mint chocolate sticks to create their edible terrariums.

Whether you're a plant lover or not, you can't deny how cute and clever these desserts are.
