Something Sweet for the Weekend

I couldn't help but smile when I saw the weekend challenge as I knew I would have no difficulty in finding something sweet to photograph. My
husband works across the street from Dundalk's most popular bakery and on Saturdays he brings home sausage rolls, brown bread and buns. And dear reader, I DIDN'T eat it.

Oh, you didn't eat it??? So sad. Yummmmmmmy!!
globalgadabout12-Feb-2012 01:52
good decision...it looks over-sugared with a hint of artificial strawberry flavouring...as an image it's a tasty confection though, suggesting a certain warmth and comfort factor..V
exzim12-Feb-2012 01:23

What we call up here a 'fancy piece'. Mind perssonally I feel these always look better than they taste - but beautifully presented & composed
Frank Brault11-Feb-2012 23:29

Aw, you should eat it ... its pink, it can't do any harm :0)
The pastels do make a very sweet picture.

I just finished dinner and would love to have had such a nice treat for desert. A really nice composition and colors. V
Ann...11-Feb-2012 21:40
Oh what a shame that you didn't taste it....not even a tiny nibble?? :)
Alan K11-Feb-2012 21:36
But you WANTED to. Wanted so BADLY to... 8^>
Good arrangement; the cup didn't need to be inside the DOF, it just makes a great theme-setting backdrop back there like that.
Phillip Normanton11-Feb-2012 21:24
Well, if you don't want it.... yum :o)
Janet Donnelly11-Feb-2012 21:11
Please pardon the drool that is now running down my chin ...... this looks so scrumptious and lip-smacking good!
