Creating Dollhouse Miniature food has been my passion for thirty years. My miniature food is usually made from the modeling material, Fimo. I enjoy developing new techniques for creating realistic food items displayed on new and unusual porcelain trays which I also create.

In the past few years I have been experimenting with metallic luster on porcelain. I have been making porcelain platters and displays for a variety of food items especially wine and cheeses. The new realistic porcelain Tudor trays and blue and white Asian designs are quite interesting. The newest items are marbleized porcelain cheese displays and my Colonial Williamsburg collection. Wine and cheese displays are my specialty. I also make Tudor and Medieval items, wine trays and a large variety of meats, especially a realistic turkey carcass.

I usually do two or three shows a year. You can contact me through my e-mail, juyetake@clearwire.net or look on my website, tinytownehawaii.com for many unusual items.
