Some Macaron Jewelry

I'm pampered by the attention given to this macaron pendant, which received 50 over hearts within a couple of weeks. I didn't expect it to be so popular. Designing jewelry is errr... well... more difficult than making miniatures! Other than my Oreo cookies jewelry, the response for my other cookie series had been lukewarm. So this is really a great form of encouragement for me to come out with more food jewelry designs.








This is a pair of macaron earrings. Available in my shop. There are also a couple of new items so do pop by. :)




Hope you like these photos and enjoy the coming weekend. :)

Chocolate Chip Cookies Preparation Board

I'm late but Happy 2012! This is my first post for the year 2012 and I'm starting the new year with an entry for the dollhouse miniature preparation board contest at deviantart.

I guess many artists have attempted chocolate chip cookies prep board before and the idea is not new. But after 3 years of dabbling in miniature food, I have yet to try it. It is hard to be different as the ingredients are rather basic - eggs, chocolate, flour, sugar, butter ... so I made a tiny recipe card. It's so tiny you can hardly read the words (perhaps you can by using a magnifying glass) but you can see the picture quite clearly. It's a coloured pic of a stack of chocolate chip cookies. Hope you enjoy these photos!
