  • Rainbow Tacos, Halloween Minis and More

    Today’s post is a little bit of this and a little bit of that–everything from mini food tutorials to new molds in 1:6 scale! First off, I have a new tutorial in Issue 185 of American Miniaturist. Learn how to make the tiny school lunch, complete with the cutest banana ever. Want to buy this…

  • Polymer Clay Cakes for Dollhouses (and Ears)

    While we work, the mice and I often have movies playing in the background, and yesterday ended up being a Tinkerbell day. A friend had recommended one of the new Tinkerbell movies, and now I can see why. The movies take place in Pixie Hollow, which is filled with tiny fairy houses and the most…

  • Building a Miniature Ice Cream Parlor and Bakery Room Box

    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…

  • Miniature Bakery: Adding Some of the Final Details

    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. Here’s a little photo tour of what I’ve completed since my last post. Don’t forget: If…

  • Bakery Room Box: Finishing the Freezer Case

    As the week comes to a close, I wrapped up the last case in the miniature bakery: the freezer case in the back corner. I decided to fill it with cartons of the bakery’s house-made ice cream, homemade ice cream sandwiches, and a party-size ice cream cake. I also made a rainbow layer cake and…

  • The Bakery Room Box: A Parade of Cakes

    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…

  • Miniature Sweets: Dollhouse Cupcakes, Mini Macarons and More!

    I’ve been wrapping up the desserts for the first bakery case in the miniature ice cream parlor/bakery room box, and I have lots of colorful pictures for you today. That, and a new cupcake mold for your own projects. 🙂 Adding to the sweets I shared in an earlier post, I made more macarons, heart-shaped…

  • I’m at a stage of the exterior of the bakery room box where most of the construction elements are done. I’ll be adding little details, such as flowers, an awning, signage, etc., but the bulk of the building is complete, so I want to transition to the inside, aka, bring on the miniature sweets! I’ve been relying…

  • I’ve just finished a custom order for a pretty dollhouse cake topped with a very pale green fondant, encircled with forest green ribbon, and decorated with glittery fondant flowers. I used the fondant cake method outlined in How to Sculpt Miniature Bakery Treats from Polymer Clay to make the smooth cake base. Then, I wrapped…

  • It’s been a couple of months since the release of my last mini food tutorial, How to Sculpt Miniature Summer Foods, so it’s time for another book! The topic? Dollhouse bakery treats. I’ll be revamping content from my first two books (the cake and cupcake tutorials), since it’s been a couple of years since their…
