Desserts!
Developed the film from my mom's party, trying out the new add-a-photo feature...
The sugarpaste tulips, before they were placed on the cake. Scary how much time this represents!
The finished centerpiece cake. You can't see all the detail - white-on-white doesn't photograph well - but hopefully it gives the idea.
The dessert buffet, all set up. The desserts are:
Near cookie tower, top to bottom: sugar cookies, black gold (a.k.a. double chocolate) cookies, oatmeal raisin cookies
Raspberry cake (white cake with raspberry jam inside)
First platter: brown sugar bars and peanut butter bars
Second platter: triple-chocolate brownies and apricot squares
Centerpiece cake (chocolate inside)
Third platter: lemon squares and toffee squares
Rainbow cake with tulips
Far cookie tower, top to bottom: nurnberger (honey almond cookies), pfefferneuse (spice cookies), chocolate chip cookies
Dessert buffet viewed from the other end

Sorry I can't send over samples to taste this way, but at least you can finally see what I was working on all that time!
