It's the middle of the lovely summer holidays here, and our family has spent all our time lately kayaking on the local rivers, having long, hot days at the beach, and visiting the local waterholes. It's been absolutely lovely. I have a few days left before I go back to work.But one day, it rained!!!
And I had time to make some miniatures. My miniature making stalls big-time in summer, because I am outside playing. It's very good for the soul!
When I announced the winner one of my giveaways, I posted this picture of a cake and someone thought it was a miniature cake. It wasn't.....I had found the picture somewhere on the web and really liked its pretty shabby colours. Ever since reading the comment about it being a miniature cake, I have had it in the back of my mind to have a go at making a miniature version.
So on our one rainy day recently, I made this little cake. I think it looks pretty on these little spotty plates.
I made a few little macaroons too.....I have a very big problem - there is NO MORE ROOM in my little shabby cottage for any more baking!!! It already looks overfull. I need to make a bakery and cafe scene, so that I can move all these cakes out and put some OTHER sorts of accessories in the shabby cottage!

Very shabby chic! I love it!
Hi Carolyn, your rainbow cake is a sweet and perfect macaroons. I encourage you to make a small bakery to continue enjoying your mini marvels. A warm greeting from Spain.
I invite you to participate in my giveaway.
I think you could make a lovely teashop attached to a bakery and I could come and sip tea and admire your china. :)
Your miniature cake is fantastic!I love it!
Have you made it with Fimo?I Would like a slice of it!:-))

With such fabulous cakes your cafteria will be a big success.
très belles couleurs pastels
Carolyn, your cake looks delicious! I am so glad to know you are enjoying the beach and outdoors now, as the snow falls on my world here in the north! We are "hunkered down" as they say hereabouts!
I agree with the others.... you have to do a bakery or tea room for sure! :)
The miniature ones look just as good! I will have to try my hand at mini food one day. This is all so new to me...and those pink dotted plates are the icing on the cake!!
Carolyn, I love the cake and the macarons! They came out wonderful. I am hoping(sorry) that you get just a little more rain so you have more things to share!!!!
Carolyn your cake is fantastic! Love the colors. Can't wait to see in what beautiful scene all your goodies end up. =)
Wonderful your cakes!! and wonderful Christmas in summer!!!!
