Happy Bastille Day! / Bon 14 Juillet !

Today is Bastille Day, France's national holiday, and to mark the occasion we've made some special versions of our miniature candy boxes celebrating France!

There are tricolor treats with our French flag candies, Eiffel towers in chocolate and butter cookies as well as some specialities from the South of France - Calissons d'Aix and nougat de Montélimar!

All available now in our Etsy store.

Do you have any special "Bastille Day" events happening near you today? We'd love to hear about them - leave a comment!

SIMP Preview - Pastries / Pâtisseries Individualles

I am starving!!!

Making mini food all day long really does make you hungry. Sometimes I swear that when I'm working closely on a teeny caramel religieuse just under my nose, I can REALLY smell the caramel....it's hard....(or soft....I mean if it's soft caramel...)

So here's a glimpse of our Individual Pastries, mostly new. I'm off to get my bags ready for tomorrow, and let's hope that this time I don't forget anything (yes, one year I left home without any of my miniature tableware which I had spent days before meticulously hand painting - not going to do that again this year!!)

See you tomorrow if you're coming to the show :)

Oh la vache, ce que j'ai faim!!!

On ne se rend pas compte, comme ça, mais faire des miniatures de bouffe à longueur de journée, ça creuse! Je jure que parfois, à force d'avoir le nez juste au dessus d'une religieuse au caramel microscopique, j'ai l'impression que ça sent VRAIMENT le caramel....c'est dur...(ou mou, si c'est du caramel mou, mais bon....)

Voici donc un petit aperçu des pâtisseries individuelles, nouvelles ou pas, et moi je file remplir mes sacs pour demain, pourvu que je n'oublie rien (ouais ouais, une année, j'ai laissé à la maison toute la vaisselle, c'est malin!!!!) et à demain, les gens :)

SIMP Preview :)

So here's a first look at some of our SIMP pieces.

There will obviously be lots of pretty pastries and cakes but right now we thought you'd like to see some of the less obvious pieces we'll have on show...

Allez, un petit coup d'oeil pour vous donner envie de venir me faire un petit coucou :)

Bien sûr, plein de pâtisseries individuelles toutes neuves toutes fraîches - tartelette aux framboises, un nouveau saint honoré violette, des monts blancs à la fraise, des saint Ho aux groseille, des macarons et tout le bastringue - mais aussi-enfin!! - un peu de salé et à la demande générale, de la vaisselle sale!

A dimanche les gens qui viennent au Simp, et coucou à tous ceux qui ne viennent pas :)

100+ boxes of tiny treats - all different :-p

Lots of savoury
