I was lucky to meet the owner of Food Jewellery Direct, the elusive Anne Kane. A tall and shy young woman with 2 beautiful kids and a dog named sky.
We met through a mutual friend at a dinner party and became firm friends.
Okay the last bit was a little exaggerated, still a nice woman and a talented artisan.
I was asked to review her site: Food Jewellery Direct by her friend Jay Adams and jumped at the chance.
I have a sweet tooth, I love chocolates, cakes, biscuits and practically all the stuff which makes your teeth fall out, but I have never heard of "Food Jewellery".
So imagine my surprise when I ventured on to her site finding all my favourite food in miniature replica forms.
Chocolate miniature biscuits, marmite cufflinks, pepsi cufflinks, marmite watch, bracelets made out of party rings. It was completely crazy.
The site has hundreds of novelty jewellery including gift sets and a Oreo set I had my eye on before it sold out.
There's even a option for the brave among us who want a more personal jewellery service.
I was so intrigued by what I saw I contacted them and asked if they wouldn't mind sending a free sample so that I could see what these products look in real life.
I received a typical official sounding email which stated my samples were on it's way.
I was really excited and couldn't wait until Royal Mail delivered it.
The sound of a parcel dropping on my mat was all it took for me to dash to the door and rip the package open.
Two pretty little red boxes with bows came into view, and when I opened them up they were the cutest rings you have ever seen.
One was a mini party ring, the other was a miniature tea cup ring. Both items were very detailed and look real except they were extremely tiny.
You can see from both pictures how much work went into creating those! They are extraordinary in real life.
Back to my review of the site. The website is very easy to navigate with a drop down menu on the menu bar and the categories are well laid out on the homepage.
The shopping basket is very easy to use, you can stay on the product page and it tells you how much items are added to your basket.
Checkout is a breeze. It only took me 1 minutes to go from adding items to my basket to the PayPal page.
A good looking website with sharp photos, my only complaint is that they don't allow you to review individual products.
If you would like to see more of Kane's work go to http://www.foodjewellerydirect.co.uk.
