If you’re working on building your own bakery room box, don’t forget to check out the new miniature shop furniture and other accessories in my shop. Since a good number of items sold out within a few hours, I wanted to show you out-of-stock items that are available for special orders. If you see something you…
Many of you have downloaded your copy of the brand new tutorial book, Building a Miniature Ice Cream Parlor and Bakery (thank you!), but if you haven’t gotten your copy yet, I want to show you a bunch of cute pictures from the book. I also have details on the miniatures used in the bakery, which…
That’s right, we’re almost to the finish line. In fact, my birthday is on Saturday, and my hope is to have the book finished by then: a nice present for you and me! At this stage, all of the writing is done, I just need to create the table of contents, arrange all of the…
Today was a day of signs and awning in the miniature bakery. Let me take you on a tiny tour of the new details I’ve added… I spent a good deal of time on the side wall of the bakery, creating an awning and vintage ice cream posters on the walls (the bakery’s proprietor and…
The miniature bakery and ice cream parlor room box is getting close to being finished! My miniature supply order came in with a glass-topped cafe table and chairs, rolling pins and cookie sheets, glass candy jars and more goodies.

I wrapped up work on the miniature bakery project this week by starting on the checkout counter, a long, low case with lots of display space. I wanted to feature sweets that were pre-packaged or otherwise ready for a customer to carryout with little fuss: things like candy bars, loose candies that can be scooped into baggies,…
Today, I finished the last of the miniature cakes for the cake case, adding to the batch I made yesterday. I’m so excited to see the room box fill out, and next on my to-do list is the counter where the cash register and impulse-buy displays will be. Once this counter is done, the room…
It’s Tiny Cake Central in my studio today, and I’ve sculpted four new cakes for the miniature bakery, including a very time-consuming ombre cake. Let’s take a peek! The first cake is iced with milk chocolate frosting and topped with pretty chocolate-strawberry macarons and a yummy sweet strawberry glaze. Second up is the Party Monster Ice…
Now that the sweets cases are beginning to fill up, I really wanted to show you a view of the bakery room box as a whole. It’s really coming right along! It’s tricky to take photos at eye level, because my camera doesn’t fit into the room, so here are some views from above, plus…
