Fine Fruit and Cheese

Hello everyone!

I really like making Fruit and Cheese, its one of my favourites to create, and yes I know I have a few :P but these always appeal so much to me!

I love using high quality products to add to my work, but nothing much beats natural stone, well other than the beauty of real wood.

Hopefully I weill have some sweet foods coming up soon, but if you like these some will be appearing in my shop soon and also on eBay as I type.

Wishing you all a warm sunny week, if we can escape the rain that is lol!

I hope you enjoy these new photos.

    Hey thanks so much everyone!!

    Your comments are very much appreciated as always and I love to hear from all of you :)

    Well as you might have guessed the fruits of the forest basket was made because of your kind suggestion Dirgesinger thank you :p

    Hey don't tell anyone but actually like cheese either lol!! ;) With the exception of smooth mozzarella and stinky Camembert, but I wish I did because cheese looks all so fantastic!

    However I love making it in miniature for you all to see, and that's the main thing.

    Oh and the mystery veg is really fruit :p and it's rhubarb :p it looks like rhubarb in real life I promise, I made it from real rhubarb, it just has no leaves, well because didn't need to make any for them as it was a special order for a lovely lady.

    I will hopefully get some of these minis in a shop shortly for you guys to purchase, but they keep going to new homes before I get a chance though :p


    Oh and Kat if you are looking in I have a special gift coming your way at last!!


    Have a wonderful week everyone!

    Hello marie christine! I'm so happy you love everything I make, thank you for the wonderful comments :) I have been to France over ten times at least, as I love it so much there, and all the hundreds of cheeses in the huge hypermarkets still amaze me!! I guess that's why I love to make them :)

    OH wow Dirgesinger you haven't seen rhubarb before, if you can buy it then you should maybe try some :) it tastes really crazy! but don't ever eat the leaves as they are quite toxic so I'm told.
    I will have some more mini sweet food to tempt you soon too.


    Wow I even got spammed today too lol! sorry about that guys.

    Have a warm weekend everyone :)
