You know I spend a lot of time goofing on Etsy. But as much as I enjoy the Etsy disasters (and I do), I am even more delighted when I find a seller whose wares inspire and intrigue me, and AndieSpecialSweets is definitely one of those.
The items in this store are instantly striking, and I really enjoyed zooming in on the pictures to get all the amazing minute details. They’re miles beyond my price range, but after looking at how beautifully crafted they are, their prices don’t seem as outrageous. Everything can be customized, and they’d make really memorable favors for a small wedding or other momentous occasion.
I had a great time browsing the store, and I’m sure you will, too. We’ve got a lot going on today, so I’m going to let these gorgeous sweets speak for themselves.
Hope you have a great Saturday!
Epilogue: The lovely Jason & Andie’s Twitter account has also been providing me with great amusement this afternoon. I am totally going to buy some buttons and try this at work meetings.

These are some of the most intricate sweets I have ever seen. So much detail, and the workmanship is amazing. They are far too good to eat! 🙂

I just went looking for the budget version: https://www.etsy.com/search/home-and-living/food-and-drink/candy?q=edible+seashells&order=price_asc
Of course, I’m sure they’re nice, too, but definitely a different experience from the real thing.

Fantastic! Chocolatiers can use a special silicone that allows them to make molds of practically anything their heart desires. (I’ve seen it on http://www.sugarcraft.com/catalog/gumpaste/plastique/plastique.htm if you’re interested in getting your hands on some.)
These guys look like they’re having a lot of fun. Thanks for bringing this to the light to share with us! What an astonishing centerpiece one could construct using some of their products…!
