I did it once, if you mean like growing fruits and give them shape by placing them in shaped containers, like star tomatoes, and moon shaped cucumbers, and doesn’t take the shape as good as I wanted to, so I left it, and grew them normally.
Depending on how much space you’ve got there are a few things you can grow indoors.
Mini-tomatoes work well if you’ve just got a windowsill, and want something cute. Radishes do pretty well too. You might be able to do some strawberry plants in a hanging basket.
Just remember, if you want anything to produce fruit, you’re gonna have to pollinate by hand, because there are no friendly bugs to do it for you. This is pretty easy, you just get a small paintbrush and dust the pistils with pollen from the stamen. Also, make sure that everything gets enough sun. Most of these plants were not really meant meant to be grown indoors, so the window that they need to be near needs to be a sunny one. If things are lacking, growlights might not be a bad idea.
You may want to take a look at Seeds of Change. They have a website, and several seed collections. One of them is an “Edible patio container gardening” collection, and I think it would work well for your purposes.
