Lotus Shoe Practice Piece
Hi, had too much free time this week and tried out making all kinds of shoes. I'm most proud of this one. Gumpaste Lotus Shoe( the shoe for the bound feet) As I live in China, it was especially interesting for me to do the research and try to make one. Handpainted with gold lustre border

Couch
My best friend has her b'day today, so I came up with a replica of her sofa, of which she is really proud of, her sitting on it with the saying,: not yet again another party, I'm sick of parties. That's pretty much verbatim, what she told me, when I asked her, whether she was going to celebrate or not. Xmas season was one party after the other, I think we had something like 12 big events in 3 weeks, late night ones, each and every one. BUT we all decided to suffer with her and all turned up at her place .

35 Th Anniversary Cake
9 layer choc coffee cake, covered with choc ganache and decorated with fondant corals, as we call it the coral anniversary in Germany, or linen, but that is difficult to incorporate into a cake. The 2 starfish should symbolise the couple, chocolate shells around the bottom ring, dusted with luster dust. The 35 is also made to look like corals. Cake is filled with a light vanilla buttercream, cookies and flavoured with Tia Maria, Cointreau and espresso

3D False Teeth
The mother in law of my friend is arriving in China today, one of the Golden Girls, who ordered the suitcase cake for her daughter in law, threatening to come back. So today's the day. She has false teeth on top, which were not made too well, they looked like a block, and separating them in Europe is really expensive. She now wants to have it done in China, since everything is cheap here. Well, we found a REALLY cheap way and are providing the tools to do it as well. The writing = really carefully
