For those of you not on my mailing list, I have a bit of fun news: I’ve just started a brand new tutorial book, and this time, I’ll be making a collection of your requests, and man, oh man, did you ever send in some good ones! Salads, interestingly enough, topped the list with the…
It’s that wonderful time again: time for a brand new miniature tutorial book! Get ready to make cute and colorful carnival foods, like funnel cakes with powdered sugar and whipped cream, soft serve ice cream (with rainbow sprinkles, if that’s your thing), cinnamon-sugar churros, and more. Plus, now through March 29, I have a special two-pack…
These tiny bread sticks with melty cheese are the last project for my upcoming Cheesy Foods tutorial book, which will be releasing soon. Check out photos below to see the realistic miniature food you’ll learn how to make with the new book, and sign up for my mailing list to get an email as soon…
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…
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…
Today was a really fun day in the studio, because…well, because ice cream! How could I not have a blast filling a teeny-tiny ice cream case? Seeing the finished case next to the pastry one, which is also completely filled with miniature sweets now, gave me a huge feeling of momentum on this project–the room box is…
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…
The miniature bakery is coming right along, and I’ve finished all of the brick work for the front and sides of the building–hallelujah! And for now, I’m simply not going to think about the fact that I have to do an entire sheet of bricks for the rear wall. 😉 I painted two tiny doors,…
The front wall of the bakery is coming right along thanks to a rather mind-numbing stretch of brickwork last Friday. It took a bit of hunting around at local stores to find the appropriate foam for the bricks, and then there was a bit of trial and error with the brick-making process, all of which…
