Number Candles, New Cakes!

Hello everyone!
Gosh, what a lot of travelling I have done this year! I have neglected Hummingbird Miniatures over the past couple of months as I was away in China and then France. But, I'm back, orders are rolling in, the online Hummingbird Miniatures shop is open and you're welcome to email me to make any request you like.

The other day I was asked to make a pink birthday cake for someone with some '5 0' candles on top, as it is for their 50th birthday. I was delighted to do this as I've never done it before. Here are some photos of the finished cake before I send it off.

If you would like to design your own specialty cake, or request a birthday cake with number candles, then please email me and place your order now.

Thanks! :)

A Different Spin on Mini Food

Have you ever clicked over to the miniature world of Pixie Dust Miniatures?

Pixie Dust Miniatures is all about fantasy, fairytale, witchy and whimsical miniatures. You can find unicorn horns, pumpkins, hand-blown glass jars of magic matter such as molten gold and mugwort, and there's a selection of dragon and monster eggs as well as some unusual foods....

I thought I'd devote this post to some of the unusual foods which are being made for Pixie Dust Miniatures... there are Poison Apple Pies, Bat Apple Tarts, Bone Pies, Snail Cupcakes and witchy Candy Apples....

Everything is created with the same amount of realism and details as Hummingbird Miniatures miniature food. But this food has a magic twist!

Find Pixie Dust Miniatures at:

BLOG here,

FACEBOOK PAGE here,

If you want to know even more about this fantasy food and what a lot of it is being used for, then click over to the MAIN page - on Facebook HERE. Much of the witchy food is being created for a short film and is needed for a scene inside a cake and pie shop. If you want to follow the progress of the film and eventually watch it when it's finished. then be sure to become a fan of the Facebook page.

Happy Easter 2014!

Happy Easter everyone!

As you may know, I just got back from 2 weeks away in China.

The trip throughout China (starting in Hong Kong, then Guilin, Xi-an, Beijing, Shanghai and back in Hong Kong) was so wonderful and inspiring that there will DEFINITELY be some Chinese miniatures in progress soon...

So - the online Hummingbird Miniatures Etsy shop is back online and business has been resumed as usual.

Have a lovely weekend and wishing you a Happy Easter from Hummingbird Miniatures!

Before the Bakery Closes...

In case you missed my latest update (here), just wanted to let you know that my online Hummingbird Miniatures shop is going to close in a few days as I am flying to China for a 2 week vacation to visit my brother who lives out there.

So... the shop is here and if you hurry you can get your Easter orders in (Easter range is here) and don't forget to use the discount code (details here).

And don't miss out on any of the NEW tiny new breads and pastries, as shown above....!

Aside from miniature breads and Easter miniatures, if you want to hear about what's going on in my miniature filmic world, then I wrote an update on my other blog here in which I talk about how miniatures are used in filmmaking today... ;)

Preparing for Easter...

A couple of years ago I came up with fluffy plush toy chicks in one inch scale miniature, as well as plush toy Easter bunnies. They were pretty popular so this year, even though I didn't have much time to create a new Easter Range as such, I have made many many more Easter chicks! Take a look at my 'work in progress' photo below.

Here are some of my Easter items which are also available this year. There are a few Easter bunnies left and only ONE Easter cake left. After that this cake design will be discontinued.


*** IMPORTANT SHOP ANNOUNCEMENT ***

My online Hummingbird Miniatures Etsy shop will be closed for 2 weeks starting on April 2nd (so that's only 6 days away...) because I am flying to Hong Kong for a vacation. So get your Easter orders in ASAP!

To get things moving, I am offering a 10% discount for Easter items only. That means you can pick up a fluffy little chick or two for only $10.80. Just enter the coupon code CHICKS after you click to buy but before you pay. 10% will automatically be deducted from your entire order, but not shipping.
Note - this is to be used on all Easter items only. :)

New Bread Range Listed!

It was ages ago that I blogged about my new bread range ('in the making'), and finally I've had time to photograph it, write about it here and make it all available at my online Etsy shop here!

So, take a look at my handmade one inch scale (1:12) breads... from ciabatta, two kinds of baguettes, sourdough loaves and mini rolls, pumpernickel, olive bread and more...
