So beautiful, Sonja. Oh, how I wish we were neighbors. I would invite myself over (stringwork cookies in hand) just to watch you make these masterpieces! 

A piping party ! I'd love that! Thank you so much, Christine <3 !!!

Sonja, I love this!!! The crackled effect on the house with the pink roof is so creative and fun . And the isomalt touches on the roof and windows really add a new dimension of multi media techniques. Awesome work, as always ♥♥. Hugs.....

Please count me in!     Pip

O my gosh Sonja!  I didn't realise how small this is until I looked again and noticed your hand.  Finite detail.  The roses look like they have individual petals. Did you create them or did you use a mould?  

I'll bet the little friend was overjoyed!

Thank you so much, Pip ❤️❤️❤️! No molds used for the roses. They are made by attaching petal by petal. These pics should show their individuality better :

WOW, this is amazing again, Sonja and so cute! Can't decide which one is my favourite, I think I love them all equally And I was about to write that I wanna be your friend or at least neighbour so I can admire these beauties in person, when I saw Christine's post. So please count me in to the piping party!

Unbelievable Sonja!!! Having worked with isomalt a few times now I can really appreciate the intricacy of this work...these look fabulous. How did you manage to form the petals fast enough before the isomalt cooled? Or did you keep reheating it? Or do you have a melting pot that keeps the isomalt at the melting temp? I've looked at a couple of tutorials on isomalt in which the instructor shows how to pull it (like taffy) to create different designs. Remarkable work, Sonja
