I just got this email from my friend with these babies. Thought all you might want to see the awsome art in them. I found a forum about them on davesgarden.com however you had to be a member to see them.
Enjoy

Just to set the record straight these are NOT made of marzipan, they are made out of polymer clay. Here is a link to the real artist's website, she does STUNNING work!

I am sorry to disagree with you, but did you look at all the pictures on that page? The same exact photo that you posted is from that site.

Those babies are amazing. The one who did them has so much talent. I'd love to see them decorate a cake.

Those really are polymer clay, and not marzipan.
However, I have been working with a mixture to make fairies and figures
and I have come up with a chocolate clay/gumpaste, that has a translucency
to it . Those babies are made with some of the same types of tools and techniques that are used for "sugar arts". They can be replicated in chocolate
and look just like that. With the exception of the fuzzy hair, which would make it no-edible. I have been working on this technique for a while now. thumbs_up.gif

I think they would make a great addition to a cake though...but I would definately put a "blanket" of something between them and the frosting.... they are remarkable...I bet they are bookoo bucks too!
