I have been working on these dolls for my upcoming class at purple Petals studio this Saturday. They are Bon Bon Babes! The little girl with the pink cupcake hat is complete. I like this little doll because she seems different than what I usually do. For her, I used a picture of a japanese doll that i liked. She doesn't look like the picture.....but I liked using a "Guide"! It really helped keep me on track of making the features small...it kind of gently "Nudged" me..."NOW Col.. , do those lips look as "HUGE" as you are making them!!? " haha!
Anyway...She is paperclay over foil and wire armature. The bottom of her cupcake hat was made from a mold that I made from a little rubber tart I found for $ 1.00...how cool is that?...and the top is clay that I sent for from japan that is like whipped cream, and then painted with acrylics and "topped" with Texture glass medium! Well, its not as easy as they make it look...that little "dallop" of whipped cream took me about 3 hours to get it to look the way that I want. I will have to ask Miss Amber Dawn, "sweets extraordinare" for an easier way! 
Amber has inspired me to create the next doll....She is just in the idea stage, auditioning hair and clothes, but she'll definately wear the "Chocolate" hat... The Hat was created over one of my wooden cuppers, then I used gallery texture paint to do the chocolate drizzle, then glossed the chocolat up with Texture Glass. She is a chocolate Bon Bon...and she will have a lot of tiny candies on her outfit. I made the tiny candies (below) from polymer clay, but they are not glossed yet!
I still have to make many more !
