Presentation is paramount when creating a eye catching dessert --- a behind the scenes glimpse into the art that is plate painting. |

Muscular and artistic hands -
weaving the magic we call presentation.
I see the art,
fashioned of edible sculpture.
Your formulations
are
the
holy scripture.
you are profit of the palate,
to
your
unwavering congregation.
cutouts of cake, bases;
the pulpit
from
which
you preach
your decadent wisdom.
Dripping, oozing
thinning sauces.
Prepping, squeezing;
till heavenly visions
are realized.
Tuiles, chocolate decorations;
An offering
of snap,
of crispy symmetry;
Oh lovely visual revelations.
Is it enough to paint those lines,
to chase perfection
to gain
culinary
holy ground?

| Loving this write, holy ground? WE all need to read words of this sort to seek our saneness and to have a good time doing it. I did on this one, it is amazing what you can write about when you think like this. |

| Your essence is in every creation. One indeed finds the sacred through work. The imagery here is, well, delicious, Amber. I'm suddenly very hungry... |
