I’ve wanted to create a miniature bakery after visiting some really amazing ones on our travels. Here’s what I came up with, it took a very long time…
The bakery itself and all of the display pieces (except for the bread rack) were made from chipboard available at Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts.
The displays were filled with all sorts of mini treats. I used paper clay, polymer clay and poly clay canes to make them.
I painted the paper clay breads with acrylic paint then dusted them with pastel chalks.
Here’s an in-process photo of the banana cream pie.
The exterior of the building is covered in brick scrapbook paper. I added a few planters out on the balcony made from wooden blocks topped with large wooden beads.
Hanging on the left wall I gave myself a 5 star Yelp review, a Trip Advisor certificate of excellence and figured while I was at it added in a James Beard award. Go big or go home!
Any questions, please ask.

So wonderfully detailed! Do you make your own molds for the breads, too? They are so perfectly realistic the way you finish them.

This is incredible, all the tiny details! I’d love it if everything is edible as bakeries are my downfall, especially European ones.

I don’t make my own molds. I am ALWAYS on the lookout for dollhouse scale treat molds!
