Singapore Local Desserts (2)

There is a wide variety of desserts in Singapore.  We can find hot or cold, sticky or clear, wobbly or firm, health or sinful desserts in Singapore hawker centers and food courts. I try my best to make them look alike in miniature size, hope you like it.




These are my handmade local desserts recently. 





Miniature Tau Suan and Pulot Hitam (boiled black glutinous rice with coconut milk). The size for this series of dessert is slightly bigger than the one I did before. The mini bowl I use is about 5cm in diameter.



This is miniature Chendol, I could not find a mini glass so I used a bowl to place them.



This is one of my favourite desserts either in cold or hot,  Bubur Cha-Cha.



See, how small they are?!

These local desserts can be easily found in our hawker center/food court. But my desserts are just for looking, cannot be eaten as they are made of clay.

Play Dough (5): Miniature Flower Shop

Below showed a miniature flower shop done by my Ah Ma (senior ) students (average age 65 and above)
I teach them once a week and now they become very capable of making miniature figurines.  For the past few weeks we made different kinds of  miniature flowers and form a shop like this.



All these miniature flowers are made by age 65 and above Ah Ma, the oldest is 85+



They also made some mini cactus. Well, I help them to decorate the mini flower shop.



Make at least 5 or 6 stalks of the same flower and place them in a mini vase, they will look very pretty when placing altogether.


Look from the top view



These miniature flowers are made of play dough and they are really very small.

Miniature Fruit Basket

Making miniature fruits is actually very challenging , especially making the miniature durian and grapes.
These two items really take up a lot of time. I used about 2 hrs (that's why I seldom make miniature durian) to finish the durian showed below..




Apples, oranges, banana, kiwi, these are very good miniature fruits that go well with the basket



I made the miniature clay melon so that the mini basket looks more colourful


The mini thorn is so difficult to stick onto the body of the durian, especially it is so small!  I need more practice in order to make those thorns look straight on the body.



As most of the fruits are orange and yellow in colour so adding some other colours like red, green will make the whole basket look nicer.


My handmade miniature apples, oranges , banana and mango


                                  Below showed some of my custom made miniature fruits.

Miniature High Tea

In Singapore, it is very common to see people sit back, relax and enjoy a cup of tea at our favourite high tea spots. I have made this miniature high tea set is because I myself love high tea too..




What do you usually eat during high tea? I always choose a cup of hot drink like cappuccino or mocha or just black coffee, than I will take some cakes to go with my drink.  




This miniature high tea set is very mini, I made the tray and placed every thing on. I also made the round transparent plate .  



Feel hungry? 




Enjoy my handmade miniature high tea set.
