This is a smaller painting, 9" high and 12" wide ,and putting so much diversity into a small space was a challenge.  Each pastry is unique with its own chocolate-like color and texture. They are almost tumbled one upon another creating an enticing display. In the close up, you can see some of the individual textures in the desserts.  Look for the differences among them.

A plateful of lovely desserts suggests a story of an elegant day of entertaining, beautiful guests and delightful company.
