We've mentioned Jin Patisserie here on Slashfood before, but we didn't get to see food pornographic pictures like this one teeny tiny cakes made by the Patisserie's owner, Kristy Choo.

The cakes are beautiful, and would be perfect for a shower, a tea, heck, if cupcakes are all the rage at weddings these days instead of one big tiered cake, then these are the perfect hybrid. They're not cheap, but just look at the detail on them!

The Classic Bellini

If you haven't already read I have been to Italy. To the home of Prosecco to be precise, in the North East. Prosecco is both a grape and a style of sparkling wine and I am hooked, having previously ignored this classic Italian wine.

What I didn't realise was that the original Bellini was made with Prosecco and not, as I always believed, with Champagne. It was created in 1934 in Harry's Bar in Venice by Commendatore Guiseppi Cipriani and was named after the 15th century painter Giovanni Bellini who was the feature of an exhibition at the time. As it is beautifully hot as I write (and frankly I would rather be outside with a Bellini in hand instead of stuck in front of this flat screen) so a quick recipe...

Classic Bellini

1 1/2 shots fresh white peach puree
top up with Prosecco

Pour ingredients into a chilled champagne glass and stir.
