This is why America gets to have all the nice things. Swedish artist Jonas Lund has developed an app for a New York pizzeria that takes creating your own custom pizza pie to the next level – the online level.

Paint Your Pizza is an online app that lets you create your own pizza artwork on an empty base. The design is up to you, and you can do anything you want with your base, from the Empire State Building to a Ninja Turtle portrait.

The design interface is similar to Microsoft paint. You get different tools and colours to draw anything from landscapes, to portraits and patterns. Once you’re satisfied with your work, upload it, pay, and wait for delivery.

Within a few hours, you should be eating what you designed.

Here are a few examples of a few designs that clearly nailed it, and their pizza counterparts.

If you’re hankering for a pie in Cape Town, call up Butlers. They deliver works of art, and save you a whole lot of artistic angst.
