Small Small World

Still I am working on mini cakes this time...Personally I am a cake lover. For these past 2 weeks plus, I have made 36 miniature cakes, 7 gingerbread houses, 3 trays of mini donuts and 2 French macaroons X'mas trees....This is my FIRST attempt in making gingerbread house. Still not that good I know. But I believe with more practise, I can do better next time... Hehe......( I hope so)....

I really enjoyed the process of making paper clay stuffs. I feel so relaxed and stress free when I am making the things I love doing. I love to listen to music and crafting at the same time. You should try it too.... 

My latest works

Each mini cakes measures ard 2 - 2.5 cm

Since X'mas is round the corner, I have decided to make some gingerbread house to create the atmosphere...Though may still look not that good, I will try harder the next time...I have studied many pictures of real gingerbread house on the Net and research many tutorials on Youtube.... Looks pretty easy to make from the Net, but when you really start to do it. It is a totally different story...Well, at least I did tried.

For my gingerbread house, I had made doors and windows out from chocolates and biscuits. And rooftops covered with fruits, biscuits, gingerbread man, chocolate and small red cherries...It takes a longer time to complete one gingerbread house compared to a cake. Or perhaps I am still new in making gingerbread house.

Each of my gingerbread house measures around 2.5 cm to 3 cm. 

One of my favourite food is donuts....But it is difficult to find donuts in Hong Kong. I have not eaten any donuts since a long time ago.. I missed the taste of it. Yummy yummy.... It is so fun to decorate the donuts...As these donuts are very tiny, it takes a lot of patience to decorate and add the candy sprinklers or even draw the strips on it. For the strips and polka dots, I used a toothpick. A small hint for my viewers. To make more realistic donuts, use a lighter beige colour clay to make the shape of the donuts. Then brush on some brownish colour soft chalk pastels to it. Will give a better effect.

That's all for this time... This will be my last post for this year. Sorry to all my viewers out there. Coz in a few days time, my son will be going back with me to my home country for the Christmas holidays for 3 weeks. So my workshop will be closed for the mean time. But will start soon once I come back from my holidays. Hereby, I wish to all my viewers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in advance.....May the year ahead be filled with lots of happiness, wealth and health to all of us!!!!!Happy Crafting ........
