Unicorn Findings 1 | Photisserie

We've decided, just to make this blog just that much more interesting, and this may put you pinterest addicts out there in a right rut, that, we would do what we'd like to call our "Unicorn Finding" for rivetingly awesome blogs and websites for food and food design lovers out there.

And what better way to kick off with a blog by a food photographer enthusiast from Germany, Kathreinerle Koschitzki. Now, Kathrin, as she would fondly be called, makes everyday food items look incredibly magical.

And her recipes, my God, her recipes! Let's just say, if you aren't married, you'd want to be, just so you could make these delectable palate orgasms for your loved one.

You can find her blog here and her Facebook page here.

Now we know the blog's mostly in German, but food and photography is a universal language, and she  puts many of the recipes up twice, once in German, and again, translated into English. Isn't that lovely of her?

And here are some of the photos you'd find there:




Now, go make some European scrumpties (that's scrumtious yummies- yea we just made that up, but we're feeling a tad proud at the moment, so let us just have it, won't you? ;-)

Mini Cakes

Here are photos of the peach (inside and out!) mini cakes we made for our bride and groom's VIP table doorgift. They wanted it customised to suit their wedding colours and we added some edible pearls to the design to add elegance to the cakes. Inside, are peach cakes with vanilla French buttercream with fresh peach bits. Aren't they lovely?
