too pretty to eat

The phrase "too pretty to eat" means that something is so attractive or appealing that it seems almost too good to be true. It suggests that the object or situation is so appealing that it may not be worth pursuing due to its allure. For example, "These cakes look almost too good to eat" implies that the cakes are so delicious-looking that one might be tempted to eat them without moderation.
