The Modular Pecan Pie-Cosahedron

Happy thanksgiving y’all!

Expect Math-art to be updated on a regular basis now that Australian Uni is out of session. Today’s math-art is again, food. And its a pecan pie. Or, rather, many pecan pies in the shape of an icosahedron.

Now I’m quite sure math-art readers are quite familiar with what icosahedrons are, so no new explanation is needed. But the best thing about this pie is that it’s modularly constructed. Each triangle is its own module. And what’s more, you can make it for yourself! The instructions are here on Instructable.

If anyone managed to make their own, do tell me. I’m interested (since I really suck at baking)
