Dolldom Delicious

Unlike Hunca Munca and Tom Thumb in Beatrix Potter's "The Tale of Two Bad Mice", the denizens of Dolldom indulge their collective sweet teeth looking at beautiful cakes and pies that do not come off their plates. Nonetheless, when the time comes for our human associates to enjoy a cup of espresso or green tea, nothing beats the company of a really good confection. Recently, Dolldom met San Francisco Bay Area pâtissière Terri Rivers. Her business, Divine Petites, captivated us with its name, old-fashioned wax paper tied with string packaging, and organic ingredients. 

 

To celebrate October, Terri regaled us with her amazing ginger cake with candied ginger topping. This good-for-human-health delight comes in big cupcake size as well as Bundt cake miniatures. Tiny need not mean bland for these all-organic pieces of Heaven pack quite a punch. Bernabé, a Myling porcelain doll by Katarina Carlsson played tea-and-coffee-time host amidst a collection of vintage cream and gold porcelain and ceramic plates.

What is inside the pretty package? Bernabé, a OOAK Myling doll by Katarina Carlsson, is first to investigate the intriguing bundle. Little does he know that a delectably moist Divine Petites' ginger cake lies inside.
