Handmade Rements - Coffee Shop Pastries

This is a video about my first handmade rements.

What are "re-ments"?
RE-MENT Co., Ltd. (株式会社リーメント Kabushikigaisha-Riiment?), located in Chiyoda Tokyo, is a Japanese manufacturer of collectible plastic toys. The company's name is derived from a combination of the phrase "reform the entertainment", alluding to their desire for innovation in the toy market. Established in 1998, Re-Ment currently sells a line of highly-detailed miniature food, furniture and animal figures as well as mobile phone charms, doll fashions and magnets.

Instead of buying re-ments, I thought it would be a lot more fun to make them myself! This re-ment set is of different pastries that you would normally find in a coffee shop.
