Everything in this photograph makes me want to reach out, grab it and take a bite! The textures have been really well captured, and you've done a really gorgeous edit that shows off the various kinds of food really nicely. Looks delicious!

I love the simplicity of this image - it's understated but incredibly well-executed. The lighting is perfect and you've managed to bring out the various textures beautifully. And every part of the subject is in focus and wonderfully clear. Great job!

**This contest is open to photographers ranked between 251 and 1000 in this week’s <a href="https://www.photocrowd.com/photographer-community/">Leaderboard</a>.** If it’s edible or drinkable, let’s see it! Food and drink photographers are often highly skilled still life photographers, with cunning tricks to make the food look absolutely scrumptious. It’s a genre that’s been more than democratised though in recent times, and taking a shot of the cool food you’ve just been served up is the norm for a lot of folk now.

You've captured this dramatic powdered sugar explosion really well - but more importantly, the subject is still the main focus of the image and is still being highlighted in a way that makes it look beautiful and appetizing. It's often hard to get a balance when creating a scene like this but you've managed it really well!
