This is a sugar model I made of my daughter for her Naming Ceremony when she was less than 1 year old. She'll be 14 in August! β€οΈ
She sits on a shelf in my shop and I often show her to customers.
I recreated her in her tiny pink dress all those years ago and I still feel happy when I look at it or hold it in my hand π₯°
I'm often told by many of my wonderful customers that they have kept little sugar items from special cakes. They're one offs I guess and each little item captures a memory, a moment. Something special.
So, if you're wondering how long sugar models last...it's a long time! Obviously you're not going to eat it after all this time and they do fade a little but to have a physical object, a reminder of a special occasion can bring real joy.
If you have any sugar models from cakes I've made, I'd love to hear about them . Even post a picture and tell me about the cake and why you've kept it.
Oh the nostalgia...!! βΊοΈ
