Whipped Cream & Other Delights: A Handmade Reimagining

Herb Alpert and The Tijuana Brass released Whipped Cream & Other Delights in 1965. The album's suggestive cover, a presumably nude woman covered head-to-toe in whipped cream, made waves due to its provocative nature. Today, the cover still remains one of music's most iconic, as does the soundtrack it accompanies. 

Tasked with creating an entirely handmade project for an album cover, book, or poster of my choice, I wanted to recreate this cover using its three main elements: femininity, sensuality, and food-as-art. Using my hand as the centerpiece instead of the female body, I explored the ways in which my hand could interact whipped cream and honey and landed on a playful, retro, and sensual design that caters to today's generation of analog-leaning audiophiles.
