This is my entry for the culinary arts still life contest. They asked for creative so that is what i tried to do. I really wanted to make something creative, not just food wise but in the presentation and staging too.
I also wanted to show that art doesn't have to be a painting or drawing to be interesting, art comes in all shapes and forms and i feel that the culinary arts and still life photography section gets over looked far too much. It can take just as much time and planning to create and photograph the perfect dish/photo as it does to paint for example.

On to the food. Two tiny cupcakes the size of a 2p coin filled with vanilla sponge in a silicone mold, topped with chocolate butter cream and sprinkles.
The canvas is a square homemade shortbread cookie decorated with rolled white and pink royal icing, piped with more chocolate butter cream and sprinkles. On the "table" (a box covered with a table cloth) is some left over sprinkles as creating art is a messy business, well it is for me anyway!

As always i got my idea at 3:30am this morning and baking by 6am!

My submission for the Capture Your Pumpkin Contest! [link]

I'm so proud of my Oreo Pumpkin Tarts; these cheeky little calorie bombs are full of autumn flavours and colours and perfect to celebrate my favourite season!

The original idea is from the gorgeous Lauren and can be found here [link] !

Here are my changes to the recipe:
Makes 4-6 Tarts, depending on the size of your tart pans. Be careful not to make too big ones as they are really rich.
Crust:
20 Oreo Cookies; You can always use other cookies if you don't like Oreos !
4 tablespoons melted butter

Filling:
200g homemade pumpkin puree
100g lowfat quark
30g cream cheese
80g granulated sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
a dash of cinnamon

Topping:
100g heavy cream, whipped
Some pumpkin seeds

You may have noticed that I changed the recipe a lot, that is because I used her recipe only as an inspiration for my own creations.

When I saw that there was a sculpture contest for deviantart's 9th Birthday, I HAD to participate.

I thought: 'Finally, a contest that doesn't involve my minimal 2D skills.'

So I made this. ^^ I LOVE IT! I think it turned out great.

The 'icing' is just clay, and a thick acrylic paint I extruded from a pastry nozzle.

The chunk of 'cake' in his hand is also clay.

I used all 4 of the classic dA emotes.

The entire sculpture is only 4 inches tall at the top of the red balloon.

Fella is only 1 1/4 inches.

The cake diameter is 3 1/4 inches.


Made with:
-Super Sculpey
-Sculpey III
-Acrylic Paint
-Wire
-Wood Base
-And Gloss/Matte Varnish.

I think I could win!
