MINIATURE CHOCOLATES, PASTRIES, TARTS, CAKES and CANDY - Streets of Paris Event

The Streets of Paris project event continues with miniature sweets.  I've spent a good deal of time looking at pictures of Paris chocolate and pastry shops to inspire the sweets I've created.

I have three video tutorials for you, not one, not two, covering chocolates, pastries, tarts, cakes, and more.  Each video is jam-packed with examples, demonstrations, tools, tips & tricks.   

In the Chocolate tutorial, I’ll demonstrate how to make chocolates from beads and polymer clay, plus cover lovely ways to display the chocolates.  What's more, I'll use easy-to-cut clay canes to jazz up the chocolates.

I’ll introduce you to helpful tools such as an extruder and pushrod clay cutters.  I’ll even show you to make a pushrod cutter out of a straw and a wooden dowel.

In the Pastry & Tarts video, I’ll show you how to make all kinds of sweet treats out of polymer clay.  I’ll use silicone molds and metal clay cutters to make the process easier.

I'll show you an easy way to add glaze to your creations. 

I’ll demonstrate an easy way to make clay roses & fruit plus techniques for making clay look like baked dough.

I’ll cover all kinds of cakes in the Cake video, from simple to elegant.  I’ll show you how to make molds of frequently used components, which is a time saver. 

I’ll showcase pre-made resin treats that you can intermix with polymer clay treats.

I’ll cover techniques such as making bows, cross-cutting cake designs, creating realistic cake texture, and making nuts.

In short, there are almost 2 hours of video cram packed with all kinds of demonstrations and ideas.

I’ve designed a NEW Miniature Chocolates collage sheet and corresponding digital image set along with this event segment.  

I also have a FREE Miniature  Doilies collage sheet that you can use for your projects.  And the giveaways continue with a set of my handmade miniature polymer clay sweets (details below).

In a couple of weeks, I’ll post the next series of videos covering perfume, cosmetics, purses, and shoes.
