I decided to use Cake Sparkles (since they are, after all, sparkly!).
Played with the contrast and brightness. Not sure I'm happy with the monochromatic look - doesn't seem "dramatic" enough, but I'm at a loss as to how to improve it =/

Wow, that's different. I like the lighting and the layout of the sugar. I also really dig macro shots, so that scores a point with me. It's stark, but visually interesting.
You're allowed to make yuour pictures 640X480. Take advantage of that size allowance! Your uhndersized pic is probably taking a beating that it doesn't deserve simple because of its dimentions. Great focus and low key lighting.
very nice use of gradience. I also enjoy the swirl pattern you have set up here. I'm not thinking top three simply because it lacks a crispness but still is a very good photograph imho and I'm giveing it a 10! keep shooting :)
