Happy 4th July!

A very Happy 4th July to everyone celebrating Independence Day in the USA today! We couldn't resist adding a little something to the celebrations here in Scotland with this yummy miniature 1:12th scale American Quarter Pounder Cheeseburger, the perfect addition to our Etsy store today!

A Midsummers Dessert!

Midsummers night has arrived! Here we are, on our island in the north of Scotland, quarter to midnight and sunlight still in the sky. There won't be a night lighter than this one! After tonight we're on the turn and the nights slowly (very slowly here fortunately!!) begin to get shorter once more. Makes you just want to stop time and this moment! Something which you can always do in the miniature world and today we added a real citrus taste of Summer to our Etsy store! These 4 tiny 1:12th scale miniature Lemon Slices are entrancing and were such fun to create!

Summer Eatings!

Whilst so many parts of the UK have suffered awful weather of late we seem to have been in the eye of the storm and the sun is still shining! The island has been alive with visitors over the Queen's Diamond Jubilee holiday and Summer is almost here! These 1:12th scale Stuffed Tomatoes just epitomise the vibrancy of the season! With cheese, pine nuts, garlic, lemon, spring onions and breadcrumbs they make you think of those very special Summer meals outdoors when everything tastes so much nicer in the fresh air!

Coffee Buttercream Chocolate Cake!

Lashings of coffee buttercream smothered over a rich double layer chocolate cake - sounds like perfection, doesn't it?!! Not only that but this gorgeous 1:12th scale Coffee Buttercream Chocolate Cake just added to our Etsy store is topped with biscuit curls & blackberries!

The weather in the islands is beautiful just now, like we've been transported to the Caribbean! Makes you want to sit out in the garden with the real version of this cake & tuck in!
