Design Crush: forty-sixth at grace

April 19th, 2011 · 4 Comments

It is my opinion that forty-six at grace, the drool-worthy blog of Herriott Grace’s Nikole, has some of the best food photography in the blogosphere. If you have an insatiable sweet tooth like I do you may find yourself in front of your computer in a raging fit of hunger for one of her perfect cakes. I recently learned that Nikole is in fact a pastry chef and for some reason that makes me feel a little less jealous of this woman of many talents (including home design).

If you’re not familiar with Ms. Herriott, here’s the low-down: she grew up on a farm eating mainly from the land (like so many only dream of). She currently lives in Toronto where she runs Herriott Grace with her father who hand-carves exquisite wooden spoons, knives, cake stands and other wonderful things.

There is so much in these photos that is artful – the pastries themselves, the antique stands and utensils, the styling and the photography. I can’t get enough!
