They're actually not made from marzipan...I have these pics. It's an urban legend...eating the babies. I went to the person's website too, and they're not edible. The babies are made of Polymer Clay or Resin. I have to try and find it. ;)

Thanks for the link. I was told they marzipan, but no matter what i still think they beautiful, so much time goes in to making them!

Marzipan is a thick almond paste that can be molded into different shapes kinda' like clay. They use food coloring to color the paste.

You'll see a lot of fruit or vegetable shapes, but probably the most common are flowers to decorate cakes. Or they'll roll the marzipan out real thin and lay it on top of the cake for a smooth seemless icing and then add flowers or other decorations.

I've never made anything myself, but I've seen some pretty impressive 'sculptures' when I worked in catering.

I was told they were too via email, and that's when I went to Snopes to check it out. I think they are just precious. I would love one, but they are majorly expensive, and hard to get a hold of!
