This is a modern day substitute for Chinese Fortune Cookies. Dimsum, Chopsticks and basket completed the setup.
Using available light (at the garage) I used white paper background, and improvised white cardboard reflectors.
It was a challenge to isolate sharpness on the words for I was playing with very shallow depth of field using a 50mm lens. Had to check so often to view results on my pc monitor.
Levels and saturation and USM. cropped for web.

I think pulling back a bit from the chocolate and arranging it a bit differently would have made it a slightly more prominent subject. As it is, it's slightly hard to make out. Also, a slightly deeper DOF would allow the viewer to see the bowl and chopsticks a little better. However, I still do like the picture and the idea.
