There are fruits and veggies on that cake….

A few years ago Ron was asked to design a cake for Food Arts Magazine’s 25th Anniversary.  The magazine wanted Ron’s take on “food & art”.  So Ron decided to do his take on Dutch Still Life.  This was the first time Ron had asked his crew to make fruits and veggies out of sugar.  The staff really got into it and tried to make things look as real as possible.
