In this assignment we were asked to make food from scratch and present it in the form of photos. I chose to make Belgian waffles with whipped cream. chocolate syrup, strawberries, and blueberries. I used a recipe from food.com to make the waffles. The waffles took 30 minutes to make and take pictures of. Although I didn't get to eat the waffles they certainly looked delicious! This assignment was a good challenge to how I could multi task while making food. I put the food into as much light as possibly to accent the details of the waffles. The design I chose with the fruit and chocolate syrup added to the delicate and sophisticated theme I went with to contrast the natural stereotype of waffles. Waffles are seen as lazy and "Sunday' foods. I tried to make these waffles as sophisticated as possible to contrast that stereotype.
