Hello and welcome back for another faux food storage and display post!

Now on to that breakfast display-

These photos show the cabinet with doors opened. I found this thrifted piece for only $48 and was thrilled to make a home for all of my faux breakfast goodies in the glass door cabinet section. The bottom is an open display that I change out seasonally and in these pics you can see some of my spring collection.

Top Shelf:

The plain, strawberry and chocolate milks are acrylic paint inside of glass containers.

The doughnut drink was made in this way and I used this mold to make the tiny doughnuts on top out of clay. The larger doughnut is a kids toy that I repurposed.

The blueberry bread is salt dough in a thrift store pan. I poked the clay berries into the dough while it was still damp and was careful not to bake it as long as normally so as not to harm the clay. I used some brown acrylic paint that I watered down to give a more baked look to the finished piece. You can find the blueberry mold here.

You can see how I made the cinnamon rolls in this tutorial

The avocado toast slices (way back) were Christmas tree ornaments that I picked up at Hobby Lobby and removed the hangers. Here is a very similar option.

I used this silicone mold for the rectangular clay waffles. The round waffles I made using clay inside of an old mini electric waffle cooker that I picked up at the thrift store. It was an awful process where the clay was nearly impossible to get out of the cooker and every waffle had to be carefully reshaped. I definitely recommend going with a silicone mold, here is one of similar size. Both types of waffles I painted in acrylic paint. The whipped cream is joint compound topped with these faux strawberries. The pats of butter I made by using a silicone mold kit to copy the shape of toy butter pieces. Once the mold was created I used clay and acrylic paint. You can check out this post to read all about how I made my own silicone molds.

Using that miniature doughnut mold again, I made clay shapes that this time I painted in acrylic to look like Cheerios. Once dry I put them into a thrift store glass bowl with candle wax to look like milk. Here is a post where I use candle wax in a similar way.

The jar of squishy doughnuts are Amazon purchases. You can find the large ones here and the small ones here.

The stacked doughnuts are dog toys from Dollar Tree! The plain ones are just balanced on top of one another, but here is a post where I detail the whipped cream topped stacks.

The berry bread was made exactly the same as the blueberry bread in the previous picture, and I made the berries using the same mold set (just painted them in different colors).

You can click here to find the doughnut printable (99 cents in my Etsy shop).

The pancakes are salt dough topped in acrylic paint for syrup and more of those butter pats that I made with my silicone mold.

The peanut butter toast is also from Hobby Lobby. I found this Amazon link that has a set of peanut butter, jelly and Nutella toast.

I think the sprinkled thing in the back corner is another doughnut mug. I've changed things around and added a bunch since I took these photos, so I can't even check the cabinet to see what it was!

The doughnuts are salt dough. Just make a round ball and gently pinch in at the center until you get a doughnut shape. I painted them with acrylic once dry and used baby powder (for the powdered sugar) and real cinnamon to top them off.

Bottom Shelf:

The doughnut print is scrapbook paper that I popped into a frame while the pancake house print can be found here.

The salt dough doughnuts were made the same way that I described previously, this time using a gloss paint for the chocolate icing and watered down acrylic for the plain.

The crepes are salt dough drizzled with acrylic paint and topped with spackle and more of those strawberries that I linked earlier.

The jar of miniature doughnuts are more that I made with that silicone mold and painted in acrylic.

The doughnuts in this jar are clay for the large and plaster for the small. You can find the large silicone mold here and a similar small pan here. Both sizes I decorated with acrylic paint, puffy paint and an assortment of faux sprinkles.

The salt dough bread here was topped with real cinnamon.

You can find the chocolate doughnut printable here.

The faux coffees I made using resin that I tinted with acrylic paint. Here is a tutorial where I did another resin drink project.

These berry crepes were made again with salt dough and topped in acrylic paint/ spackle. The berries I made again using clay in this set of silicone molds.

The mini waffle sandwiches were made with clay in another of my homemade silicone molds, this one created by making a cast of a kids toy waffle. I used lightweight spackle to sandwich the acrylic painted waffles together and added a bit more on the tops. Those berries are from that same mold set again.

You can find the all you can eat breakfast printable here in my Etsy shop.

The long john doughnuts are salt dough that I hand shaped and then painted the tops with glossy acrylic.

The honey buns are also salt dough, this time I made a long snake shape and coiled it up. I used glossy Mod Podge to give the sugary sheen to the finished buns.

The orange juice and milk are more glass containers that I colored with acrylic paint and the jelly toast can be found in that link I posted a bit ago.

And there you have it, my faux breakfast collection 😍
