Orange-ya Glad to See More Canes ;)

Hello hello hello! I'm still working on the basics - fruit canes - before I get back to prep boards and mini food scenes. Fall temperatures are finally settling in, which makes my joints a little more bend-y. My exhaustion still isn't letting up, but over the past couple of weeks I had some little bits of energy to re-create the orange canes and lime canes (made plenty of lime wedges too for those teeny tiny tequila filled margarita drinks, ha ha!) I'm still experimenting with technique and true-to-life color shades, but here's what I have so far....

Double click on the photos to supersize! :D

Old, warped looking grapefruit, lemon, and orange slices on the left, and nicer, happy little slices on the right (kinda obvious, huh? :)

Yikes! Did my old limes really look that bad? No wonder I used to "hide" them in jello platters or bury them deep in icings!

Thank you so much for checking out my blog!! :D
