Making doll food with polymer clay.

Ok, so I decided to take just a tiny break from repainting. Since my dollar store challenge, I got hooked on this polymer clay buzz. I'm always doing scenes where my gals and guys are sitting around a table eating and I never have enough food! I got tired of spending crazy money on re-ment and decided to make my own food! Now I am totally hooked! I did these all in one hour and on one day. This is my very first attempt at making food. Once I practice further, I will have some totally realistic food! I am seriously excited at this prospect! 

For my food project, I used SculpteyIII Polymer Clay, Liquid Clay, Pastels, gloss and a various assortment of tools like toothpicks, needles, etc.

Ok here goes.........

I made several things and  when I got half way thru,  I remembered to take shots of what I was doing .... Duh!!!

This is my version of a Chocolate Carrot cake. I was on the phone
with hubby.  I told him that I just finished making this
cake. He got all excited until he found out it was in clay LOL

This was my Spaghetti and meat balls. I made this dinner earlier
(my real dinner... just with turkey) and decided to make my dolls
some. This is actually the finished picture. I had a hard time making the
sauce red enough. I though it was red but after baking it in
the oven, it turned darker. Mmmm gonna have to work on
correcting this! I painted the pasta yellowish using a fat paint
brush and light yellow chalk pastels.

Before pic prior to adding yellow pastel and baking in oven.

This is my french fries waiting to go into the oven along
with a piece of bacon. Go figure, I am making all the stuff that
I do not eat (except the spaghetti LOL)

This is a mammoth burger !Pre adding color to bun and baking.

This is the beginning of my pizza.  I
remembered  during this time to take photos as I was working.
Here I am smashing down the cheese. The next picture is me
placing the cheese. 

Adding the cheese. mmmm yummy cheese

Dicing the ham...

Everything ready for the oven. Baked at 250 for
about 12 minutes..

These are some of the plates I worked on.

Eggs over easy, toast with jam and crispy bacon.  Not bad for
my very first try!

My hubby's fav meal. Pancakes and sausage links.
 If he could eat these everyday
for breakfast lunch and dinner he would! 

Finished burger with lettuce,tomato's onions and cheese. There is a nice side of crispy fries. The gloss was still drying on the fries ha ha.

The yummy pizza with ham, olives, peppers etc.
I had so much fun making these! I plan to make much more so stay tuned!
Maybe some sushi!!!
Its only gonna get better.
Thanks for taking the time to look.
