ok guys, here are some updated images. these are the sugar roses that i made today. they turned out so much better today than yesterday. sugar is really hard to work with. i know i sound whiney, but this is seriously hot stuff. you have to hold it in your hands and pull it. it makes you hands raw and red. the sugar is still above 120 degrees celcius. that is really hot!! the seashells are not real, i made them. they are made out of chocolate. someone emailed me and said they couldn't see them on the sculpture, which makes sense cause i couldn't see them either, the angle was wrong. so i decided to just put a pic of them up. and the sculpture, again, is the final finished product. with the rose and and everything. it is just part of the sculpture, the part with the grapes and rose.
ok, i am taking the train home tomorrow!! yea!! i am so excited to be coming home...ok, well gotta go. i have to make tart dough to bring home for thanksgiving dinner dessert...yummy.
