Food Photography

We are given a chance to take a photo/ picture on 1 serving of dessert ( cakes, doughnuts, ice cream) that have nice presentation.
For me, I went to Swensens icecream buffet at Ion Orchard as i knew that the buffet has a vast variety of ice creams, cakes, toppings, and other things sweet and nice. There are a few picture taken of the presentation.
What i learned from Homec lesson on rubrics of food presentation are that three factors are taken into consideration which are colour, garnishing, serving size and/ or serving plates.

So here are the photos.................




 
 Waffle with sinfully chocolate mudpie ice cream. Toppings added are rainbow rice, chocolate bits, wafers and chcolate fudge.
I realised that I placed a lot of toppings here coz the plate was a bit big and there were plenty of empty spaces. I think it will look nicer with only a few toppings. I cant choose a nice plate because swensens plate are all standardise. The chocolate fudge was suppose to be just a drizzle but i accidentally placed a lot of it. Overall, the taste was very chocolatey but the waffle has lost its crisp.





For this, I took a white squarish bowl. In this picture the bowl might be big but actually its an icecream bowl that can placed around 4 to 5 scoops of icecream. To avoid choosing any chocolate flavoured ice cream, i went for the apple crumble ice cream flavour. I made a mistake in taking marshmallow flavoured fude which was also white in colour and difficult to be seen in this picture. Then, colours for this presentation was added with strawberry fudge and strawberry fruit itself. The chocolate balls and nuggets were very tempting and irrisistible so i placed it as a topping too. Overall the taste was a mouthful because theres a lot of flavour too but i ate all up coz it was super nice.



Brownie with strawberry and peach gelato. Chocolate bits at the side plus nuts and chocolate fudge. Fruits such as peach and longan was added, nata de coco and whipped cream was added just to add to the texture. Nata de coco was juicy and nice to be eaaten with the gelato ice cream with fruit bits in it. Overall...i like this the most as there is a brownie to go along with the gelato ice cream.

This picture is related to food presentation but its not ice cream. I ordered Fish Grilled Sambal and i was presented with this presentation. Just wanted to share that they piped thier mashed potato which i thought it was cool. They also added a few garnishing like carrots, lemon, frensh beans and something else that im nt sure but it is orange/ yellow in colour.
