This book is great for those who are fascinated with the art of making miniature food. Sue Heaser explains things clearly and tells you what products to use to get that "professional look". Good sized pictures make it easier to understand the steps involved in creating miniature food using different types of mediums. Check out Sue's other great books. She's definately tallented when it comes to sculpting with polymer clay and teaching others how to do the same.

This is an excellent resource book for miniaturists. Contains some different and fresh ideas other books of a similar nature do not have. My only criticism is that the step-by-step photos could be larger. Otherwise, a very good, thought-provoking publication.

A great book! This book's main strength is that it clearly shows the author's techniques for creating different colors and textures with polymer clay that are seen in real food. Appealing to beginners, the book covers the basics of working with polymer clay, including mixing colors and which tools you'll need. The book also shows techniques for making dishes and even cutting boards from which to display your work. Truly a must-have for the budget-conscious beginner or enthusiast!

I work in miniatures building houses, furniture and dressing dolls. Now looking forward to "feeding the dolls." The book is both a motivator and teacher.

I thought this book was well written and had tons of photographs to help guide you. The instructions are a little brief, I would have liked a little more step-by-step detail, but there were lots of "final product" photos for each item that you could refer to and figure things out. Really enjoyed the book overall, especially as a companion to a couple other food display books I had purchased.

this is great for a beginner as well as intermediate crafters.
I had trouble getting the right scale for the food and she goes into a specific measurements that was very helpful.
also fun to just look at.

I found this book very informitive and well laid out.

My son requested tis book as he worked with miniatures before and wanted more. It looks wonderful and I'm glad I found it for him. It is to be a Christmas present and I'm sure he will love it.
