Miniature Satay

Sometimes I am really amazed at myself. At being able to make things so small. I wish I had more time to create miniatures and learn new techniques.

Besides learning how to make miniatures online, I sometimes go to Mdm Ang (from Singapore) to learn how to make local food. Please go to her for lessons! She really has a deep passion for miniature craft. ^_^

Since my customers are mainly from overseas, I tend to specialise in more westernised food like pastries. However, it is nice to occasionally switch to local food. Let's have some satay then! I assembled this piece on my own and modified the cucumber as I didn't like the original one taught in class. I also kept all the items loose as it is quite fun shifting the onions and rice cake around - different display to suit different mood. Maybe I should try making a miniature chilli crab (add to my to-do list). Yummy!

Miniature Chocolate Fondue

It's time to party!

A miniature chocolate fondue set custom made for one of my customers. The fondue consists of fruit slices (60 slices altogether!), ice cream balls, waffle biscuits and juicy blueberries. There is also a plate of sweet creamy cupcakes and some assorted donuts. This took a few days of work to complete and I'm exhausted now!

I will post something new this coming weekend... stay tuned...
