Handmade Holiday Shopping

Just wanted to pass along info on a very cool event, Bazarre Bizarre, taking place this Sunday, Nov. 30th at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. A bunch of independent crafters, artists, and the like will be hawking their wares just in time for the holidays. Red Cake happens to be one of the sponsors of this event- and if you are one of the lucky first 300 folks to get there, you will receive a free goody bag with lots of cool stuff, including this super cool Red Cake limited edition button!!!:

(The tiny plastic baby figurine is something my friends Alex & Scott gave me, vintage baby shower cake decorations, I think?)
Hope you will check it out and find some unique, non-mass produced goodies :)

Tasty!

I am a huge fan of food- eating as well as cooking and baking- and so today, I wanted to share some food related art and art related food with ya'll...Check out the work of artist Kuniko Maeda...the tablecloth is made of slices of bread, ham, and cheese sewn together...fabulous! And I LOVE the table, which made entirely of cake!!
Check out her work at:

Some very meticulous, Japanese anime inspired bento boxes,
complete with carefully carved cleavage...


Again from Japan, these tasty tidbits of sushi are
almost too cute to eat:

And to finish, I wanted to share a pic of some Obama cookies I baked for election day..while they pale in comparison to the sushi and bento boxes, they were fun to bake! Have a great weekend everyone :) - Sherry
