Do you know the muffin man?

I have to say, I found the most irresistibly cute jewelry ever. I've been a fan for 'food charms' for a few years now, starting when a gal I know online linked me to some of her awesome sushi charm bracelets. Now they're all the craze and there are some really impressive artists out there. Yet its definitely Jeanine of Tiny Cravings that takes the cake. Or should I say cupcake.

...Sorry. Three years with the man I've been with and you'd start to find stupid puns just as irresistible as Jeanine's cupcake charm. So what's so great about them? The artistry is the main thing. If you go search in DeviantArt, you'll find a lot of cupcake queen wannabes yet the quality isn't matched by half. This girl knows her cupcakes. If you look at the pictures she has of customers wearing their charms, you can see these things are just little; they're tiny. To put that much detail into something so small is impressive to say the least. A lot of the imitators out there tend to make cupcakes that end up looking like small, magical shrooms.

What's more is that she scents her cupcakes. They just don't look like cupcakes but smell like them too. Buttercreme, lemon, lime, etc. When you buy one of these you aren't just getting a tastefully done cupcake charm but one that will convince people you're actually wearing a little bit of cupcake goodness.

Not only does she sell pre-fabricated cupcakes, but you have the option of ordering custom designs. Whether it be the simple "pick your icing, pick your sprinkles" order or a more complex item that you deal with her personally about, there's a wide variety of options open. Her new designs are always fun and definitely deserve a second glance.

Jeanine's inventiveness makes her products one of a kind. I have yet to purchase a cupcake charm from her but I'm keeping a close eye on her Etsy for when she posts her goods left over from the Halloween booth she will be setting up. Right now she's out of stock for cupcake items until that is over but anyone interested in owning a cute charm should definitely check her out. Her items are great and I think they're adorable. Once she's back into the swing of things, I plan on ordering a few of them for friends. If cupcakes aren't your thing, take a look at her Lolita based charms and her other sweets charms. She does an amazing variety of things from lollipops to fudge cake.
