Today's project was inspired by a cute little mini cake i saw when i happened to walk past Breadtalk! It was like a strawberry cheesecake with macaroons but i forgot the actual name. Anyway it had pink cream on top of a little round of cheesecake and macaroons stuck sideways into it (different from how i've done mine) and a strawberry to top it off. It was SOO cute i just had to make a miniature inspired by it!
My version comes with a raspberry on top and tiny tiny tiny little beads alternating with the macaroon shells served atop a transparent leaf-shaped plate (actually its a bead) with a sort of iridescent coating accompanied by a whipped cream and candy ribbon.
It comes in 3 versions, differing only in the ribbon(gold and white) and the tiny bead colour - silver, gold and red (meant to be christmas colours but go well for anything actually!)
A better view of the colours here.
An adorable addition to any miniature sweets cafe!
Whole thing measures only a little more than 1cm! The macaroon shells barely make it to being 3mm across! This is my first attempt at making tiny macaroon shells and happy am i about how they turned out. (of course the first successful one calls for a mould for the rest!)
I had a bunch of ideas regarding how to display these (white display plate thing? piece of golden baking board?) But settled with this in the end and glued them on before i changed my mind any further! It seems to go well together but i'll probably make more of these little cakelets to be displayed in other ways!
