Just.. wow! I love all the details in the small fruit pieces! They must have been quite difficult to make.

the fruit slices were done using "caning", similar to the millefiori technique. actually my hands became sore, and my thumbs got swollen after finishing all the fruit canes because of the constant kneading, and mixing, and rolling. believe me, after caning, everything else is a piece of cake.

It really sounds painful. The result is beautiful, though!

great job at the waffle bowl. have you seen my ice cream waffle bowls? how did you get the texture on your waffle?

hey i saw that in your profile. they all look great. how did you make your ice cream? for the waffle, i only used a square-tipped stick to puncture the clay, it was quite tedious though. i don't have any waffle mould, that's why... i'm looking for one actually.

i have a waffle mold and i hate it, never made a finished product with it yet. so i do the same thing you do but with a coil.

Great stuff! How do you make ice cream look so realistic? Also-awesome caning. Fruit caning is something I want to learn!

kalos-eidos-skopein In reply to littlemooglet [2009-07-14 09:30:50 +0000 UTC]

the caning was really a tough task. my thumb was swollen for a day after finishing all the fruit canes. as for the ice cream... i simply kneaded the clay with starch. it makes the texture dry, so if you rub the surface it breaks easily. i hope that info helps.
