Why You’ll Love It
This is a delightful artisan miniature Easter dessert display grouping. The centerpiece is a lovely porcelain serving plate overflowing with an impressive selection of hand-sculpted cookies and confections, including bunny cookies, decorated biscuits, chocolates, and pastel treats, signed on the underside by miniature food artist Sue Ayers. Accompanying the platter is a petite dessert stand displaying a row of vanilla cupcakes topped with delicate pink piped rosettes. Completing the scene is a whimsical metal Easter pail, hand-painted with cheerful spring flowers and filled with colorful pastel macarons. Together these pieces create a joyful springtime vignette perfect for styling on a dollhouse dining table, an Easter dessert buffet, or a miniature patisserie display celebrating the sweetness of the season.

A Note About Value
Every miniature we offer has been carefully evaluated for its craftsmanship, rarity, condition, provenance, and collectibility. Many of the artisan pieces we sell are one-of-a-kind works that may never appear on the market again. While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.
Our pricing reflects the miniature's place within today's collector market and the years we've spent studying the artists, histories, and values that make these tiny works of art so special.
A Commitment to Research
Every miniature has a story, and uncovering it is one of our greatest passions. We carefully research each piece, but unsigned or illegible works can remain mysteries. If you can identify an artist or provide additional information, we'd be delighted to hear from you and will gladly update the listing to preserve their legacy.
