Niki Tichakova






Niki Tichakova is a Czechoslovakian/ Canadian artist who makes the most incredible kraslice-painted carved eggshells and gingerbread art. I bought these three cookies at The One of a Kind Show when I was there and thought what better to blog about around Easter than these beautiful cookies? They really are too beautiful to eat (having said that I'm sure temptation will call ...)
Just look at the fine detail in the icing, the little tiny dots, the delicate flowing lines on the flowers and bunny. Oh, did I mention that they smell just heavenly? She uses all natural ingredients, and honey from local honeygrowers.
