Tomo Tanaka Nunu’s House Miniature Dessert Plate With Pastries And Candy

Why You'll Love It

This charming miniature dessert service by Tomo Tanaka of Nunu’s House, Japan captures the joyful elegance of a petite patisserie moment in exquisite 1:12 scale. The set features three delicately sculpted pastries arranged on a round porcelain cake plate, each decorated with tiny accents of fruit, cream, and glossy confectionery glazes. Two miniature silvertone dessert forks rest along the rim of the plate, adding a lovely sense of realism and presentation.

Alongside the pastries are two additional porcelain dishes filled with pastel candies—one displaying soft round sugar pearls and the other tiny heart-shaped sweets in gentle shades of pink, yellow, mint, and peach. The combination of textured pastry layers, glossy fruit details, and delicate pastel candies reflects Tomo Tanaka’s extraordinary ability to recreate the look of real desserts at miniature scale.

Tomo Tanaka is internationally celebrated for his Nunu’s House miniature food creations, widely regarded among collectors as some of the most realistic and meticulously handcrafted miniature foods in the world. Each piece is sculpted entirely by hand using clay and mixed media, with careful attention given to color variation, texture, and proportion. Because his work is rarely distributed outside Japan, Tanaka’s creations are highly sought after on the secondary market. This delightful set would style beautifully in a dollhouse café scene, bakery display, tea service vignette, or elegant dessert table.
