It's done! My first real-food replica challenge is done!

I had the honor of getting permission from the talented Ms. Verusca Walker
([link]), to replicate her food art in Miniature :)

I replicated her Shabby Chic Wedding Cake. (Click on the photo below for the link!)

Yes, I know, it doesn't look half as good. I had a difficult time with the cupcakes. i was supposed to copy the 4 layers of cupcakes but the small black dots hurt my eyeballs! They're a pain to make! So I just made 1 layer. LOL! I also gave up making the dots on the cake :(

My favorite about my replica are the roses <3 I think that's the only thing I'm a bit happy about :)

Air Dry Clay and florist wire for the cake and cupcakes. I used acrylic paint and illustration board for the cake stand :)

Thank you Versuca for this opportunity to use your work as an inspiration! :)

More real food replica challenge next month! Any suggestions?

The flowers definitely look lovely, and you did the fondant patterns on the cupcakes really well! :) Good for you, trying a new challenge!
