The miniature babies are, it turns out, not made of marzipan at all. Sculpting with polymer clays, artist Camille Allen of British Columbia has been crafting both miniature and lifesize babies for five years using a technique she learned from her husband's grandmother, and the photos are of some her work. She uses soft English mohair to imitate fine baby hair and brushes them with paints for realism to enhance their tiny wrinkles and creases. It's an amazing art form!
